About Alaska

Star in your own personal nature documentary with abundant wildlife, fellow passengers, friendly ship crew, and the spectacular scenery of coastal Alaska. The wildlife in these rich waters will astound you: porpoises frolicking, elegant arctic terns diving, bears feeding on the beach. Delight in puffin sightings and eagles gliding overhead. And the whales! Just wait for the pods of whales who migrate home to these waters every year. Scout tiny coves by kayak where it feels like you have all of Alaska to yourself. Contemplate glacier time as ice slowly moves towards the sea – or suddenly collapses with a crash. Experience the timeless culture and art of Haida and Tlingit people, plus relive stories of explorers, fisherman, and fortune seekers. Superlatives will never do it justice. Alaska’s stunning coastal wilderness awaits you and your family. What are we waiting for? Let’s go!

Wild Alaska Escape: Sitka to Juneau

A slightly shorter trip, this 6-day National Geographic voyage fits in all the adventure you could hope to find off Alaska’s dramatic coast. Look for brown bears on the shores of Chichagoff Island and hike through the temperate rainforest on Barnof Island. And stay always on the lookout for whales and other marine wildlife from your ship deck, kayak, or Zodiac.

Wild Alaska Escape
"Some fantastic experiences involving bear, birds and marine mammals (especially the bear on the last night while out walking on shore. Very memorable. Exciting but safe!). Being on the water in the zodiacs watching the glaciers calving—the water amplifies the experience dramatically. Hearing it, feeling the wave from the impact, hearing the popping of thousands of year old air escaping the ice. Really enjoyed being alongside the naturalists on excursions. Lovely people with great knowledge and a great, casual way of conferring information."
Denise F. - Olney, MD
Glacier Bay & Island Adventure
"A highlight was seeing the orca whales swim right up next to the vessel, especially the mom and baby. Small group on the vessel. Crew was wonderful, naturalists were wonderful. My experience with Expedition Trips was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! You helped get everything ready and we were ready to start the minute we arrived."
