 1. DIRECT TO THE WILDERNESS
This is the Alaska visitors most want to see. Your 7-day Voyage of the Glaciers cruise combined with our exclusive Princess rail service and multiple nights at our wilderness lodges at Denali National park, introducing you to the magnificence of Mt. McKinley and the vast Alaska interior. The same day ship-to-train-to lodge rail service gives you more time to enjoy the wilderness of Denali.
Imagine stepping off the gangway directly into a glass-domed railcar that sweeps you on a spectacular ride, arriving later the same day - in time for dinner -at a Princess lodge at Denali National Park.
With Princess, you will be treated to the same exceptional service whether on the ship, train or at our lodges. This means a seamless experience of Alaska. No one else has it.
