When was the last time you saw a glacier
gallop? As the largest valley glacier in
Alaska, at 92 miles, Hubbard Glacier is
a glorious behemoth of flowing ice that
moves or gallops from its ice field
source. Until you've seen and heard the
thunderous road of ice sheets calving or
crashing into the sea, it's safe to say
you've never experienced anything like
it.
There are few places left on earth that
are as well preserved and as verdant as
Alaska. Vast and lush, teeming with
wildlife and carved by nature, it is an
artist's and poet's paradise. There's so
much to see and do. Try kayaking into
the hidden inlets. Fly above the
glaciers on a helicopter tour. Shop for
art and other native treasures. Mountain
bike or hike through rainforests. Fish
forever. It's all here in Alaska for you
and it's a once-in-a-lifetime
celebration. You'll enjoy stunning
vistas of snow-capped mountains,
gleaming glaciers and the breathtaking
wilderness with its wonderful wildlife.
You'll marvel at the awesome grandeur of
this incredible journey through the
inside passage and across the Gulf of
Alaska. This is the Great Land - the
Last Frontier.

Alaska - The Wilderness Destination
Standing at the edge of a rainbow field
of wildflowers, you admire nature’s
quiet and epic majesty. Then, something
stirs — a rustling in the brush as a
huge moose rises from rest and wanders
off. A moment like this could only
happen in Alaska. Welcome to the Great
Land.
You never forget them — the vivid
impressions from your first visit to
Alaska. A 10-story crystal-blue river of
ice in Glacier Bay National Park,
icebergs calving into the tidewater with
a thunderous crack. The spectacular and
untamed wildlife, from a nesting eagle
high in a Sitka spruce to a family of
brown bears foraging along a rocky
beach. Your first glimpse of the
soaring, silent magnificence of Mt.
McKinley. It’s everything you ever
imagined — and all you traveled so far
to see. This is one of life’s greatest
adventures. One you’ll want to plan
carefully so you don’t miss a thing.

Here's how
to avoid picking a stateroom next to or
near a noisy area, or where the motion
or vibration of the ship may affect your
rest.
-
Looking for a smooth ride? The
majority of a ship's weight is from
the center to the back. At the bow,
the ship has to cut through the
water. So, in bad weather if you are
upfront, you are going to toss and
turn more than others. Having a
stateroom midship, may not be the
smoothest ride. The smoothest ride
is about half way back from center,
which is close to the true "center"
point of the ship. If you're all
the way at the back you will
experience some vibration from the
ship's engines and
propellers. Also, some will tell
you "the higher you are, the better
the ride." It's just the
opposite... the lower you are, the
smoother the ride. Swing a pencil
like a pendulum and you will see
what we mean.
- Want
an oceanview stateroom. Oceanview
can mean a porthole or two, a
picture window, floor-to-ceiling bay
window or a private balcony with a
sliding glass door. The better the
view, the higher the price.
- Some
staterooms are not worth it, no
matter what the price. Staterooms
just below the disco, next to an
elevator, under the jogging track,
or under a lounge as examples,
should be avoided.
