Alaska's Inside Passage

Southbound



Tour Description:

Cruise through Alaska's legendary Inside Passage aboard Silversea's Silver Moon, surrounded by some of the most dramatic and wildlife-rich scenery on Earth; a perfect combination of natural and cultural history...
Be at one with nature as you cruise the Inside Passage, surrounded by some of the most dramatic and wildlife-rich scenery on Earth – a cruise that is a perfect combination of natural and cultural history. Snow-crowned mountains, glacier-carved fjords, and lush green rainforests contribute to the feeling of being both uplifted and humbled by larger-than-life wilderness as far as the eye can see. There is always the possibility for wildlife spotting – humpback whales, eagles, orcas, harbour seals – and perhaps puffins, sea otters, the ever-elusive bears or the ever-moving salmon. Life under the sea reigns supreme while on the sea, fjords strewn with glacier chunks appear in shades of blue and white. When you cruise through the Inside Passage, you'll soon understand why Alaska's state flower is the forget-me-not – because once experienced, this majestic state and its unique treasure trove of wildlife, landscapes, and rich multicultural heritage are truly unforgettable. Travel through awe-inspiring ice-capped waters and enjoy a choice of shore excursions on land, all included, to discover Alaska your way. Alaska's Inside Passage – truly unlike anywhere else on the planet.
