Alaska Shore Excursions
One of the most awe-inspiring locations on earth is Alaska.
Alaska, the largest state in the United States, is home to 17 of North America’s 20 highest peaks, more than 100,000 glaciers, 3 million lakes, 6,640 miles of coastline, 33,904 miles of shoreline, and more than 70 volcanoes that are potentially active. It is truly a unique destination, from Alaska’s majestic beauty to its staggering variety of wildlife.
Sailing on a cruise ship is just the start of every adventure on the Alaskan Tour. Only by attending an Alaska shore excursion will the utter magnificence and splendour of Alaska be completely understood. Exploring the wonders of Alaska Tours and excursions would be a once in a lifetime experience, whether it’s by air, land or sea.

Cruise Excursions to Inspire in Alaska
Take a float ride on the beautiful, glacier-studded Mendenhall Lake on one of our Juneau shore excursions, pass by the world-famous 2.5 mile-wide Mendenhall Glacier or experience a whale watching cruise and see a humpback whale up close. A city tour or gold panning experience involves other Juneau shore excursion trips where you can relive Juneau’s gold rush past by panning for gold and then enjoying a delicious salmon bake at Salmon Creek.
The stunning Misty Fjords Flight Seeing Tour in Ketchikan is a must-see experience that will have memories for a lifetime. A 2.3 million acre piece of untouched wilderness that must be seen by floatplane is the Misty Fjords National Monument; it is the only way to really take in its glory – rising cliffs, saw-tooth ridges blanketed in signature mists, sky-blue lakes, endless waterfalls, fjords of frozen saltwater and miles of glacier-carved gorges. Visit the world’s biggest standing set of totem poles as part of our Saxman Native Village and Ketchikan City tour and hear the legends and stories of how and why they were created.
Our Helicopter Dog Sledding Adventure day trip in Skagway starts with a helicopter ride to a glacier dog sledding camp where you can share this adventure with 80 Alaskan huskies and hear unique personal accounts of the Iditarod, experience back country and have a chance to ask questions. As the team is hooked up, feel the excitement, then you are off! We also sell several Alaskan tours from Skagway into the Yukon regions, including horseback riding and dog mushing adventures. Or enjoy an adventurous raft trip down the Chilkat River through the world’s largest concentration of Bald Eagles in North America, the popular Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve.
We sell a range of hiking, sailing, kayaking, canoeing, and zip lining cruise ship excursions in most of our Alaskan ports for our active clients. We have many choices for our fishing enthusiasts, including salmon fishing, fishing for halibut, skiff crabbing, skiff fishing, fly fishing, or spin fishing. Our Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka fishing shore excursions are offered.
Alaska is not the eastern Pacific’s only ultimate destination. If you’re looking for a warmer adventure, the only ticket could be a Hawaii shore excursion.
