For 2011, we’re offering new ways to travel with Princess. In addition to their ‘Denali Explorer’ cruisetours, featuring exclusive Direct-to-the-Wilderness ship day rail experience, they offer three other types of tours to best fit passengers’ travel preferences. The ‘On Your Own’ tours allow you to select your own sightseeing and are the most affordable choice for independent-minded travelers. These offerings are available for as little as $299 more than the cruise. To go ‘Off the Beaten Path’ passengers can select itineraries that, in addition to Denali, incorporate visits to Copper River/Wrangell St. Elias National Park, the Kenai Peninsula or the Arctic Ocean/Prudhoe Bay.

 

Princess Tours most deluxe offering  are the ‘Connoisseur’ tours, include most meals, a Tour Director and enhanced sightseeing content. With more choices and lowered pricing, these offer an unprecedented value.

Their best ships are back on the 7-day Voyage of the Glaciers itinerary with the Diamond Princess and Coral Princess on Saturday and the Island Princess now on Wednesdays. All these sailings include the must-see destination of Glacier Bay National Park in addition to the popular ports of Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway and either College Fjord or Hubbard Glacier. Convenient 7-day sailings from Seattle are offered on the Golden Princess departing Saturdays and include Glacier Bay National Park on every sailing! The Sapphire Princess will sail from Seattle each Sunday, featuring Tracy Arm Fjord. The Sea Princess will continue her classic Roundtrip San Francisco sailings, many calling on Glacier Bay National Park.

Princess continues to be the destination leader in Alaska. Their impressive fleet and unparalleled reputation make them the obvious choice for a vacation to Alaska. It’s why readers of Travel Weekly magazine have consistently named Princess the “Best Cruise Line in Alaska” and travel agents recommend them most for Alaska and our cruisetours.
