Ponant Offers Three Unique Itineraries from Alaska Ports
With sailings from Vancouver, Sitka and Seward, three itineraries across eight departures offer a range of perspectives on Alaska’s vast beauty:
- The 9-day Emblematic Alaska itinerary takes travelers from cosmopolitan Vancouver through the Johnstone Strait and the Inside Passage—where passengers may glimpse orcas and humpback whales—then on to traditional villages like Petersburg, one of Alaska’s largest commercial fishing hamlets, and the small Tlingit village of Kake, home to the highest totem pole in the world.
- Setting sail from Sitka, the 11-day Majestic Alaska immerses travelers in the heart-stopping beauty of Elfin Cove and the Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, where whales, sea lions, and orcas can be seen swimming a dozen feet from the shoreline. The itinerary also stops in the small wooded island of Cormorant, just off the north coast of Vancouver Island, giving guests the opportunity to discover an indigenous culture in the small sheltered fishing port of Alert Bay.
- The 12-day Alaska, Nature on a Grand Scale from Seward to Vancouver includes stops in Alaska’s traditional villages and sightings of all the state’s most exotic wildlife (from grizzly bears to whales). It also includes voyages to awe-inspiring glaciers like those in the Prince William Sound and the Tsaa Fjord, the latter of which is dominated by the legendary 18,000-foot-tall Mount Saint Elias. Other highlights include Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, the Misty Fjords National Monument, and, of course, the wildlife-rich Inside Passage and Johnstone Strait.
All cruises benefit from a team of naturalist guides who offer insider information about the state’s forests, mountains, fjords and wildlife-filled corridors.
