Grand Alaskan Adventure With Alaska Cruise
Value Vacation
A tour highlight is your cruise across the striking Prince William Sound. Witness the three-mile face of the Mears Glacier as you keep your eyes open for marine wildlife, such as otters, seals, and whales, all while you admire stunning glaciers. Another tour highlight is your journey to Talkeetna, a quaint town exemplifying small-town Alaska, from Anchorage, aboard the Alaska Railroad. On this train trip, you’ll travel through gorgeous wilderness and understand Alaska’s allure. Two nights in Denali National Park gives you the opportunity to explore this amazing park, home to six million acres and North America's highest peak (20,310-foot Denali). Perhaps go for a hike or participate in an optional outing, such as a wilderness tour to seek out grizzly bear, moose, caribou, and more. But that’s not all…on this Alaska vacation, you’ll witness stunning views as you travel over the top of Thompson Pass, where you’ll admire unforgettable scenery, and into Alaska’s interior across the Denali Highway, a seldom-traveled road through true wilderness with frequent wildlife sightings.
You’ll embark on your Alaskan cruise in Whittier and cruise the magnificent Inside Passage. Watch for seals lounging on the calved ice from Hubbard Glacier and orcas (killer whales) that patrol the waters here. Dock in Skagway and imagine the gold prospectors who braved the winters here. Explore its shops and saloons along the wooden walkways of this historic Alaskan town. Sail for Juneau-the Alaskan capital and home to Mendenhall Glacier on the Gastineau Channel. Visit Ketchikan along the rugged Tongass Narrows on the fjords of the Inside Passage with its rich cultural sights of the Native Alaskan cultures. Continue south through the spectacular Inside Passage from Misty Fjords National Monument to famed Glacier Bay National Park & Preserve. It is along this course of true wild beauty that humpback and killer whales may be spotted as well as bald eagles above or brown bears on the shore. Disembark in Vancouver with tales of the Alaskan wilderness to tell.
With magnificent scenery, opportunities to witness wildlife in its natural environment, and awe-inspiring experiences, this Alaska tour is a once-in-a-lifetime vacation!

Our custom of daily seat rotation gives everyone the opportunity to take in the views from a variety of vantage points throughout the trip!
Experienced & Professional Drivers
Cosmos drivers are dedicated to sharing the world’s great destinations with our guests. From the major highways to the off-the-beaten-path roadways, your driver is highly skilled, knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful through every mile. Your driver takes pride in maintaining a safe, clean, and comfortable coach to make traveling with us a true pleasure.

Free Wi-Fi Onboard
Our state-of-the-art motorcoaches offer free Wi-Fi in North America and Europe, as well as video monitors. Stay connected with family and friends with quality wireless Internet connection and browse online to learn even more about your new destinations.
Note: Free connectivity features browsing only; downloading is not available. Some tour departures may not offer this service. Unfortunately, details regarding signal coverage are unavailable prior to touring. Some geographical areas do not have Wi-Fi service coverage; on these occasions free Wi-Fi service is not available.
Fewer Passengers = Extra Comfort
Your comfort is our first priority. With the average number of just 36 guests on a Globus motorcoach, you’re invited to stretch your legs, relax, and enjoy the ride with the extra space you deserve!
Our Commitment To Clean
As a part of our commitment to your health and well-being, we practice enhanced cleaning procedures on our Motorcoaches and other vehicles throughout every trip, including additional daily disinfecting procedures that go above and beyond our already strict health and safety procedures. Our clean and comfortable motorcoaches are equipped with state-of-the-art air filters that continuously purify the cabin air as well as provide comfortable climate control and ventilation. For the comfort and consideration of all passengers, our motorcoaches are non-smoking. However, there are ample opportunities for smoking breaks during frequent stops along the way if you wish.
Sustainable Travel
The Globus family of brands is committed to reducing transportation-related energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. Our modern motorcoaches feature the latest technology in emission control and reduction with an average of seven times more energy and fuel efficiency than single-occupancy automobiles. Plus, our coaches can travel a distance of 206.6 passenger miles per gallon! Each motorcoach replaces as many as 55 passenger cars on the roads, slashing fuel usage and pollution emissions.
Onboard Restrooms
Motorcoaches in Europe and North America are equipped with an emergency restroom. For transfers and sightseeing in London, this amenity is not available. We use the term “emergency restroom” because this amenity is not intended for use in lieu of the restrooms at your hotel or frequent comfort stops throughout the day.
