Why You Should Cruise Alaska Sooner Than Later

Do you have dreams of going to Alaska? Well, make those dreams come true and jump aboard one of Alaska's fabulous cruise lines. We promise you won't regret it. Read on for the five most significant reasons you should cruise to The Last Frontier sooner rather than later. 

  1. There are Multiple Choices of Cruise Lines

Sailing in Alaska extends from the middle of May to mid-September. During these months, you won't likely see a shortage of cruise line options. Choose to go on a luxury or expedition-style cruise or maybe something a little more unique. Castaway Destinations personal favorites are Disney Cruise Line for families and the luxury Silversea Cruises for those traveling to Alaska sans kids.

2. Alaska is Fun for All Ages

Alaska is desirable to people of all ages and tends to be high up on many bucket lists. Many families come here each year to enjoy the beauty of the great state and the broad scope of activities and events fit for all ages and types of travelers. If you are traveling with young kids or planning a multi-generational trip, Alaska has something for everyone.

3. The Wildlife is Out of This World

The wildlife you will encounter in Alaska is truly among some of the most breathtaking and uninhibited you will see. When traveling to Alaska by cruise ship, don't be surprised to spot bear hunting for fish, whales, eagles, and several other beautiful creatures at home in their natural, untouched habitat 

4. Alaska is Ideal for Adventurous Souls

Dare to go dog sledding? You may have to take a helicopter ride to get into the mountains first but you’ll get to hang with sweet huskies all day. Or perhaps go on a land tour before or after your cruise or hike through the Denali National Park or the Kenai River Valley.  The possibilities are endless in The Last Frontier for even the most adventurous of travelers.

5. There is No Time Like the Present

Like other parts of the world, the landscape and wildlife in Alaska is forever changing, and sadly, Alaska won't be as charming as it is now forever. Right now, you can see The Last Frontier in all of its iconic glory. From lush forests to enormous glaciers, there is much to admire and experience from the sea.

Alaska truly is one of the most magical places on Earth, and you don’t need a passport to travel there!
