Alaska. The great wilderness. It is truly like no other place on earth.
Locals say the best time to travel there is spring, May, for seeing lots of wild life. That’s because the mommas are still down low on the mountains. Once summer kicks in, they move to cooler climes, higher up in the mountains and they are no longer visible.
Spring can also be very nice, temperature wise. When I was there in May, temps were often in the upper 70’s and even in the lower 80’s. Nights are cooler, and I often needed a light jacket.
Here’s some pricing for May 17-24 for a northbound cruise from Vancouver to Seward. There’s an optional 3 day rail trip you can add-on as well, which travels from Anchorage to Fairbanks through Denali. This is a beautiful trip and if you have the time, I HIGHLY recommend adding this!
Airfare is not included, but can be added. These are some GREAT prices for an Alaskan cruise and won’t last very long. If you are interested in this, or any other Alaskan cruises, please feel free to contact me!
