Overview

“As far as Alaskan expeditions go, this itinerary gives passengers more access to so many aspects of the state’s culture than any competitor” – Condé Nast Traveler

Witness the grandeur of Alaska with Rombauer Vineyards as the theme winery for the entire ship!  See premier glaciers: Mendenhall in Juneau, Kenai Fjords’ Harding Icefield, Tracy Arm’s twin Sawyer Glaciers.  Discover Alaskan Native villages, Russian cathedrals, and Gold Rush history.  Thrill as you watch a wild brown bear snatch a struggling salmon from a stream or a humpback whale breach off the bow.  Cruise Misty Fjords and Kenai Fjords on your intimate, all-suite ship, Star Seeker, in waters beyond the reach of larger Alaska cruise ships.
