Contact your local Viking travel advisor, call us on 138 747 (AU), 0800 447 913 (NZ) or visit viking.com | 9 At Viking, we believe Alaska deserves more than a passing glance—it deserves time, depth and connection. Our journeys are designed to immerse you in the wild beauty and rich heritage of the Last Frontier, with thoughtfully curated itineraries, enriching onboard experiences and opportunities to explore beyond the ordinary. This is Alaska, experienced the Viking way. SMALLER, MORE PERSONAL SHIPS Enjoy the comfort and intimacy of Viking's award-winning ships, designed for fewer guests and a more personalised experience. In a region where many ships carry over 3,000 passengers, Viking ships carry no more than 998 guests. With no sprawling crowds and faster embarkation and disembarkation, you'll spend less time waiting and more time exploring. A LONGER, MORE IMMERSIVE ITINERARY Our 11-day Alaska & The Inside Passage voyage gives you the time to truly experience the Last Frontier. While many cruise lines offer seven night, roundtrip itineraries, Viking's extended one-way journey sails beyond the Inside Passage, continuing north through the Gulf of Alaska to Seward—the gateway to four of Alaska's great national parks. This extended route means more ports, more scenic sailing and more opportunities to immerse yourself in Alaska's wild beauty. POPULAR PORTS AND BEST KEPT SECRETS Visit iconic destinations such as Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway, along with off-the- beaten-path treasures like Sitka, Icy Strait Point and Valdez. Plus, enjoy two days of scenic cruising through the Inside Passage and Yakutat Bay, with unforgettable views of Hubbard Glacier. On board, deepen your understanding of this remarkable region with our Resident Historian Program, featuring lectures on indigenous cultures, glacial landscapes and the Pacific Northwest's storied past. COMBINE TWO WISHLIST EXPERIENCES For many guests from Australia and New Zealand, this is a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Viking makes it even more memorable by offering extensions that combine Alaska's wilderness with your voyage. Experience the postcard-worthy destinations of Banff and Lake Louise as you explore the Canadian Rockies on our Rocky Mountaineer rail extension. Or venture deep into Alaska's interior with our six-night extensions exploring the wildlife and nature of Girdwood, Anchorage, Fairbanks and Denali National Park where moose, caribou and Dall sheep roam free.
