2023 Alaska Voyages: Small Ship Luxury, Locally Curated Travel Experiences & Stunning Natural Wonders

Calving glaciers, breathtaking fjords, fascinating wildlife encounters, historic gold-mining towns – there’s nowhere else quite like Alaska. And as the pioneer of destination-focused cruising, we offer the adventure of experiencing the treasures of Alaska in a way quite unlike anyone else. We bring you to both marquee favorites and new, off-the-beaten-path locales. The small, luxurious Regatta visits smaller ports and remote harbors that larger vessels simply cannot, offering you an exciting and authentic Alaska experience. Experience unique ports like Wrangell and Prince Rupert, which larger ships cannot access, and marvel at up-close views of Hubbard Glacier. The ship's intimate size allows for immersive experiences in every port that dig deep into the local people, culture and cuisine.

As you soak up the wonders of The Last Frontier, you’ll enjoy a luxurious small ship atmosphere aboard the beautifully re-inspired Regatta. When you travel to Alaska with us, you sail with fewer guests, which means you will have the ease of embarking and disembarking the ship without crowds, which leaves you with more time to soak in the local Alaska spirit and beauty of the natural surroundings.

Days ashore on our 2023 Alaska cruises can mean helicopter flightseeing with local experts, Zodiac boat expeditions, crabbing in the Bering Sea, wildlife safaris in old-growth rainforests, gourmet tasting tours and so much more.
