Although cruises are our most popular option for Alaskan expeditions, we also feature several hotels that put you right in the heart of the area's majestic nature. Consider exploring the 6-million acre Denali National Park, home to expansive wildnerness & North America's tallest peak - Mt. McKinley. Denali Cabins, Denali Backcountry Lodge, and Camp Denali/ North Face Lodge provide a great base for your own frontier experience. Due south, in the Gulf of Alaska you'll find the six comfortable cabins of Tutka Bay Lodge, delightfully secluded on the evergreen landscape of Kachemak Bay, with easy access to hiking, kayaking, whale watching, and even cooking classes. The Winterlake Lodge, on the Alaska Range, will take you back to the times of the Iditarod Trail, when the pioneers first settled this pristine wilderness.
The Standard Hotels are our primary hotel choices in this location, though availability is not guaranteed. If a given hotel is not available for your tour date, we will reserve you a room at a location of similar appeal and quality in the same area.
I spent 2 entire days trying to find my Alaska small boat trip, with no success. Then Erin from Adventure Life gave me 4 choices on the same day I contacted her. She was caring and very efficient. I'm very excited about the cruise she found for me.

The people assisting you have traveled with many of these companies or done the very same trip in the past. That kind of experience in invaluable when selecting a trip for yourself.

I don’t have the words to describe it but the last week has been one of the best I can remember. 6 days of adventure in South East Alaska including trekking through lush rain forest, sitting in silence listening to glaciers calving, up early to see the northern lights, kayaking and stupidly swimming in iceberg frozen waters ! (That actually hurt).
Animal sightings including black and brown bears, Minke and hundreds of Humpack Whales, porpoises, sea lions, mountain goats, harbour seals, bald eagles, salmon and more birds than I can count. Wonderful friends and connections made. A huge shout out to Trevor and his totally amazing crew on the Admiralty Dream whose energy and enthusiasm made this most incredible experience.
