ALASKA, DENALI & YUKON CRUISETOURS  

An Alaska cruisetour with Holland America blends an award-winning cruise through Alaska's Inside Passage with a picturesque train journey deep into Alaska’s wild landscapes. Spend up to 3 nights at their exclusive resort near the gates of Denali National Park. Here, you can dine at Karstens Restaurant, enjoy the Music of Denali at the Gold Nugget Saloon, or share stories around the evening campfire under a star-studded sky.  

Immerse yourself in the adventure of a lifetime with optional tours like the Tundra Wilderness Tour. Experience the raw beauty and majestic wildlife of Denali National Park during your stay with breathtaking 5-6 hour excursions that take you 43 miles into the park’s pristine wilderness. These views and close encounters allow you to capture awe-inspiring views of Mt. Denali and photos of Alaska’s Big Five—grizzlies, caribou, Dall sheep, wolves, and moose in their natural habitat. This is your chance to witness nature's splendor at its absolute finest!
