More Ways to See Glaciers Than Ever Before
Alaska’s glaciers are some of the most breathtaking natural wonders on Earth — and with Holland America Line you’ll see more glaciers than any other cruise line, guaranteed. From the ship, you’ll enjoy 360° views as it slowly rotates in front of giants like Glacier Bay, Hubbard Glacier, and College Fjord.
But the adventure doesn’t stop at the railing.
With Holland America acclaimed shore excursions, you can:
- Trek or dogsled across a glacier’s icy surface
- Soar over frozen landscapes on a flightseeing tour
- Glide by catamaran, kayak, or RIB in crystal-clear waters
- Bike alongside glacier-fed rivers or hike glacier-adjacent trails
It’s not just sightseeing — it’s total immersion.
More Access to Wildlife, More Moments to Remember
Holland America Line is also #1 in Alaska wildlife and wilderness tours, offering 175+ excursions designed to connect you with Alaska’s iconic creatures. Whether it’s spotting humpback whales off the coast, photographing moose near Denali, or catching a glimpse of elusive gray wolves, you’ll have more chances than ever to experience Alaska’s wild side.
Every land + sea journey includes a complimentary park tour, like the Tundra Wilderness Tour in Denali National Park — where you may encounter the “Big 5”: grizzlies, moose, caribou, Dall sheep, and wolves.
Perfectly Sized Ships Means A Front-Row Seat to Alaska’s Wonders
Holland America ships are purposefully mid-sized — large enough for world-class dining, entertainment, and activities, but small enough to navigate Alaska’s narrow fjords and get closer to the action.
You’re not straining with binoculars or missing out because of crowds. You’re right there, front and center, for glacier calving, eagle sightings, and postcard-perfect views.
Convenient Departures from Seattle & Vancouver
With roundtrip sailings from Seattle and Vancouver, your Alaska journey starts closer to home — making travel easier and more flexible.
Whether you’re looking for a quick weeklong escape or a longer land-and-sea adventure, Holland America offers itineraries from 7 to 28 days to fit your schedule.
