Description

Embark on a breathtaking journey through Alaska’s untamed beauty with Cunard, where majestic landscapes, glacial wonders, and rich cultural heritage come together in an unforgettable voyage.

Sail through the awe-inspiring Glacier Bay and the majestic Hubbard Glacier, two of Alaska’s most iconic natural treasures. These icy giants—set within a UNESCO World Heritage Site—offer dramatic scenery and unforgettable moments, from towering ice walls to the thunderous roar of calving glaciers crashing into the sea.

As you explore this remarkable region, encounter Alaska’s abundant wildlife, including whales, bald eagles, sea otters, and bears in their natural habitats. Your voyage also takes you to charming coastal towns like Ketchikan, Skagway, Sitka, Wrangell and Icy Strait Point, where rich Native heritage, frontier history, and thrilling adventures—like glacier flights, dog sledding, and salmon fishing—await.

On board, immerse yourself in Cunard’s signature elegance, where refined comfort, exceptional dining, and enriching activities elevate every moment at sea.

From pristine wilderness to vibrant local culture, this is a journey you’ll never forget—Alaska, the Cunard way.
