M/S Mariner Alaska

Shoreside Adventures

The state of Alaska is huge, about one-fifth the size of the United States, and as big as England, France, Italy and Spain put together. There are endless sights to see and if your time is limited, you might want to consider one of our well-organized land packages, which can take you to many of the major highlights in just a few days. Remember, thanks to the midnight sun, the farther north you travel in the summer, the longer the days last, and even though some of the hotels may be rustic by 5-star standards, they seem fitting in America's last frontier. Anchorage has almost 20 hours of daylight during the summer solstice, and remember too, that no matter what your expectations are - expect the unexpected.
