Description

Alaskan Dream Cruises’ itineraries are designed to ensure you will enjoy an authentic and personal Alaska experience. At the conclusion of each day, you’ll feel that you’ve done much more than just travel through the Inside Passage. You will realize you’ve witnessed the region through the lens of a resident. You will have experienced natural interactions with local peoples and indigenous cultures and have walked the streets and gravel roads of towns and villages which rarely see outside visitors. There are opportunities to step onto pristine shorelines and into the cover of dense old-growth forests through special-use permits with the Forest Service, Glacier Bay National Park, and private landholder organizations. At the conclusion of each day’s adventures, you’ll find your chosen vessel to be a relaxing retreat, where guests dine on regional cuisine and learn from compelling evening presentations. You’ll also interact with officers and crew that embrace and embody True Alaskan Hospitality.

Though we’ve spent decades exploring this region, we have yet to run out of new places to explore. The wildlife continues to fascinate us and the grandeur of the scenery is never taken for granted. We invite you to join us for a journey through True Alaska. We cannot wait to share our passion for this unspoiled and untamed land with you.
