My calves ache, but tonight I'll soak in my private whirlpool tub on the ship. Consult your travel agent. This trip was on Princess, which offers luxury cruises with a wide variety of land excursions, which may be selected prior to departure. The Princess Inside Passage tour begins and ends in Vancouver, British Columbia. Shore excursions include such activities as a salmon bake, rain forest nature walk, sea kayaking, a jetboat excursion, or a wildlife sightseeing cruise.
All equipment is provided.
Another option is to walk on a glacier, but forego the mountaineering gear via the glacier flightseeing adventure. Accommodations include Princess' premium wilderness lodges near Denali and Kenai. Guests also travel aboard the Midnight Sun Express, a luxury rail car. The months of May and September offer the lowest rates.
