Alaska Cruise Plus Land Tours
Adding on a land package (making your getaway a "cruisetour,") is a way to see even more of Alaska. You can go see North America's highest peak, visit charming pioneer towns, hike through Denali National Park, or go rafting. It also gives you an opportunity to check out Alaska's big cities, like Anchorage and Fairbanks. Turning your cruise into a cruisetour really gives you the best of both worlds--land and sea.
Anyone can create a cruisetour by adding a 3-7 day land package after a cruise. However, you get to decide whether you want your land tour to be escorted or independent. On an escorted tour—like on a cruise—transportation, accommodations, and meals will be included, while extras like flightseeing and rafting bring an additional charge. Here's a breakdown of your options:
Large Ship Cruise + Land Tour
Combine a large ship cruise with one of these land tours to create your own "cruisetour".
This flexible and unique tour lets you take in some of Alaska’s most iconic highlights in a variety of ways. After your amazing Holland America cruise through the Inside Passage, you’ll pick up an RV and start exploring Alaska. Itineraries range from 11 – 29 days.
