Alaska and the Yukon

A humpback whale surfaces suddenly into the sparkling air... a tidewater glacier calves into the sea... a majestic bald eagle soars silently in a cloudless sky... snow-clad mountains tower over deep blue rivers of ice... forested landscapes and glistening fjords of the 49th state reward with priceless treasures... and just beyond, the Yukon unfolds with its own wonders - where the Tombstone Mountains rise in jagged silhouette above golden tundra, and caribou roam freely across vast, untouched wilderness. Here, under the midnight sun or the ethereal glow of the aurora borealis, nature's grandeur knows no bounds. Embark on an extraordinary journey through the rugged beauty of Alaska and the storied landscapes of the Yukon Territory on an adventure that takes you from the cosmopolitan charm of Vancouver to the historic heart of the Klondike Gold Rush in Dawson City. Experience the rich cultural tapestry of the Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in First Nations, delve into gold rush history at the Discovery Claim National Historic Site, and explore the engineering marvel of Dredge No. 4. Traverse the majestic Denali National Park, where you may encounter moose, caribou, and grizzly bears amidst breathtaking tundra landscapes. Visit the Husky Homestead to meet Iditarod champion Jeff King and his spirited sled dogs. Soar over glacier-carved valleys on a floatplane adventure, and unwind at a mountaintop dinner with panoramic views. Cruise through the awe-inspiring Inside Passage, witness the calving of Hubbard Glacier, and enjoy exclusive experiences like a private whale-watching cruise in Juneau and a rafting expedition through the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. This meticulously crafted itinerary offers an immersive exploration of the natural wonders and rich heritage of Alaska and the Yukon.
