Mountain Rails & Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage
Cruise & Stay Holidays
Experience the highs of Banff and Jasper national parks as well as the romance of riding the Rocky Mountaineer rails from Banff to Vancouver. This 15-day tour is all about making the most of Western Canada before setting sail aboard one of Holland America Line’s stylish cruise ships into the fjords and nature reserves of Alaska. It’s an epic adventure with flower-filled gardens, icefields and coastal glaciers, and the isolated wilderness of Tongass National Forest, providing a stunning array of magical moments. It’s going to be a wild ride so make sure you bring your waterproofs, walking boots, and your best pair of binoculars for watching the wildlife. On your cruise, you’ll have whole days sightseeing in remote ports of call such as Juneau, Skagway and Ketchikan, as well as scenic cruising days in Glacier Bay, along the fjords of Tracy Arm, and through Alaska’s Inside Passage.
