WHERE TO
STAY IN ALASKA
Accommodations in Alaska vary greatly. All of the major
towns and destinations feature accommodations comparable
to those found in major cities in the lower 48 states. A
variety of national hotel chains and Alaska hotel chains
are available throughout Alaska. Comfortable rooms can
be found along the highways and in the smaller towns
along the way. Bed and breakfasts are available in most
communities and present an excellent alternative in
smaller locales.
Alaska's visitor season is fairly short so advanced
reservations are crucial. The better Alaskan hotels and
lodges in places like Denali National Park are often
sold out six months in advance. Some of the less
traveled locations may offer better availability, but
you should still reserve as far in advance as possible.
Availability is extremely limited in peak season
throughout Alaska.
When you travel throughout Alaska, you want to stay in
great places near the best destinations. That is the
criteria Princess used in building its lodges. Each
lodge is custom built to reflect the unique regional
flavor of Alaska's best destinations. The uniqueness of
the accommodations is as important to your overall
experience as the places you chose to visit.
Nestled on a bluff overlooking the mighty Copper River,
our newest lodge takes full advantage of the view. A two
story wall of windows frames the 12,010 Mt. Drum and the
Wrangell-St. Elias National Park.
Princess
Wilderness Lodges
Strategically located near the top
attractions across Alaska, these deluxe
lodges offer the same premier level of
accommodations and service you’d expect
to receive from Princess Cruises — the
very best in cruise travel. |

WHAT TO DO IN
ALASKA: Tours & More
With Princess Tours, you will not just
see Alaska, you will experience it. Our
wilderness lodges feature a wide array
of opportunities to get out and explore
each unique region. The enrichment goes
further than optional tours - some
lodges feature daily lectures from
National Park Rangers featuring the
geology, wildlife and native culture
pertaining to the area.
Optional Tours and Excursions
Each of our riverside lodges features a
tour desk where all varieties of
excursion are available. Our Alaskan
Outfitters - experts on optional
excursions - can tailor your experience
to be what you want it to be. You can
walk on a glacier, fly around Mt.
McKinley, ride horses in the backcountry
or just go for a leisurely walk around
the grounds of the lodge.
The level activity varies by excursion.
Our most active options require a
moderate level of activity such as
walking for moderate distances over
relatively a variety of levels of
terrain. Activities such as canoeing,
hiking, biking or kayaking are examples.
Participant should by physically fit. We
also offer a wide variety of excursions
that require more moderate levels of
activity. Each excursion is rated and
indicates the level of mobility and
fitness required to enjoy the tour.
Princess also offers a number of
optional tours for guests with limited
mobility, including wheelchair users.
Most tour operators require that
wheelchairs are collapsible. Your
outfitter can assist you in making a
decision as to what type of trip is best
suited for you.
Explore a National Park
Fully one-half of all United States'
national park land is in Alaska.
Considering that, you begin to
understand the scope and diversity of
this vast expanse. Stretching 13.2
million acres, Wrangell-St. Elias
National Park and Preserve is the
largest National Park in America. The
Copper River Princess Wilderness Lodge
is only a few short miles from the
Wrangell-St. Elias National Park visitor
center and Princess provides free
shuttles to the center.
Denali National Park is located 240
miles north of Anchorage, and
encompasses 6 million acres of forests,
tundra, glaciers and mountains - that's
larger than the entire state of
Massachusetts. Yet only 90 miles of main
road traverses the park, leaving the
moose, caribou, sheep and bears free to
roam a wide area of land untouched by
man. The Denali Princess Wilderness
Lodge is only one mile from the lone
park entrance and tours into the park
are arranged by our outfitters.
Kenai Fjords National Park lies on the
jagged southern edge of the Kenai
Peninsula south of the Kenai Princess
Wilderness lodge. This ice-sculpted land
known as "Alaska's playground" just begs
to be explored - and there's a variety
of ways to do it from our lodge. Each of
these lodges features interpretive
experiences provided by the NPS Park
Rangers.
Enjoy the unique cuisine of Alaska
One of the best ways to experiences
Alaska's unique lifestyle is through its
cuisine. Princess Alaska lodges feature
cuisine carefully chosen to reflect the
distinct regional flare of Alaskan food.
We call it our signature Alaskan
Cuisine.
Salmon is king in Alaska and there is no
shortage of it around Princess lodges.
Each location features salmon prepared
in unique ways - from smoked BBQ salmon
bakes to poached salmon steaks smothered
in fennel sauce. We also feature thick
steaks of fresh-caught halibut and
luscious Alaska king crab legs. You can
top it off with one of the features
northwest regional wine or a locally
brewed Alaskan Ale. These are just a few
ideas to help you plan your ultimate
Alaskan vacation.

Money-Saving Tips
Form a Group. Save and sail to Alaska!
Did you know the
most overlooked way to stretch your dollar is to form your own
Alaska cruise group. Traveling with family or friends, can
lower costs enough so you can travel even when the economies not
that good. Of course, most of us don't have the time - or
inclination - to make the calls and do the research for an
entire group.
.jpg) It's
a big job. However booking a group
cruise is easy for a professional travel agent. Your agent can
create a package that works for you, while your group will
realize across-the-board savings from group discounts that your
agent discovers.

Notes From The Great Outdoors
"We just finished another
incredible 14 day cruisetour itinerary for 2010. Now I'm
getting ready to help a couple decide which one of 68
cruisetours we offer. I've already heard exciting chatter
about our guests seeing more of Alaska and really getting
off the beaten path. And believe me, between glacier
trekking, biking through Denali National park, and a rail
tour on the Wilderness Express, these folks are going to be
impressed."

Explorations Coordinator

Plan Ahead:
Alaska Cruises and Cruisetours are now on sale
Reserve the best staterooms, balcony views and tours now. Get
your best savings by booking early!
Timing Is
Everything: The wide array of cruise lines and Alaska
cruisetours that are available create an equally large variety
of prices. The lowest fares tend to fall during the months of
May, and September, while prices rise substantially in June,
July & August. If you are flexible, you can save money by
sailing during May and September.
Good Deals Go
Fast: There are Alaska
cruises in May as low as $649 per person for 7 days! Offered on
the ships of Princess and Holland America. Of course, they are
for an inside stateroom, but at these prices they will go fast.
The Layered
Look:
The weather in
Alaska is unpredictable, so dress like an onion! Go with the
“layered” look so you can peel. Standing in front of a Glacier
is much like standing in front of your freezer with the door
open. Tuck a pair of light gloves in your pocket!
