Alaska
Wilderness by Land and Sea
Alaska is a place where nature takes the lead—where snow-capped peaks meet deep fjords, and wildlife often outnumbers people.
From the comfort of a ship or the seat of a train, travellers get front-row views of calving glaciers, breaching whales, and endless evergreen coastline. An Alaska cruise offers access to remote ports like Sitka, while inland extensions by rail bring you deep into Denali and beyond.
Pair an Alaska itinerary by cruise with land-based adventure for the best of both worlds. Whether you’re watching the northern lights dance in the night sky, fishing for wild salmon in quiet streams, or walking through a historic Gold Rush town, Alaska is about getting close to the elements. And with Amala, comfort is never far away.
