Want to experience Alaska beyond the coastline without worrying about all the logistics? This is where Princess really shines. Princess is the only cruise line that owns and operates its own wilderness lodges in Alaska, and its exclusive rail service was designed to connect the journey from the wilderness to the ship. The result is a wonderfully smooth, elevated way to experience Alaska's interior — beautiful lodges, glass-domed rail travel, Denali National Park and spectacular scenery, with the details already woven together for you. And with Dawn traveling along, you'll have your own Kidd Travel escort throughout the land adventure before we meet up with Kriscinda and the rest of our group aboard Discovery Princess.
YOUR LAND ADVENTURE
AUGUST 2 | ANCHORAGE
Welcome to Alaska! Arrive in Anchorage and settle in for your first night before heading into the wilderness.
AUGUST 3 | DENALI
Leave the city behind and journey toward the magnificent Alaska Range for an overnight at the Mt. McKinley Princess Wilderness Lodge. This is where Alaska starts feeling very, very big.
AUGUST 4 | DENALI
Continue into the heart of Alaska to Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge. Your experience includes Princess' Natural History Tour into Denali National Park, including Primrose Ridge — a wonderful introduction to the landscapes, wildlife, history and Alaska Native culture of this legendary wilderness.
AUGUST 5 | DENALI → WHITTIER
Today, getting there is part of the experience. Board Princess' glass-domed railcars for a spectacular journey through Alaska toward Whittier. Then it's time to board Discovery Princess, meet up with Kriscinda and the rest of our group, and begin our seven-night cruise south to Vancouver.
YOUR LAND TOUR INCLUDES
Princess-arranged accommodations in Anchorage and at the Mt. McKinley and Denali Princess Wilderness Lodges, transportation throughout the land portion, the Denali Natural History Tour, Princess rail transportation to the ship, luggage handling and the convenience of having the details coordinated for you.
Not included: Airfare, meals during the land portion, optional excursions, and personal expenses unless specifically noted otherwise.
And Dawn will be traveling with you throughout the land portion — so you get the ease of a Princess Cruisetour with your own Kidd Travel escort along for the journey.
THE BEST PART?
You don't have to choose between Alaska by land and Alaska by sea.
You get both.
