Marissa, Adventure Life Trip Planner, shared a short video from her Alaska trip. In mid-May, Marissa spent a week in the famous panhandle. Spreading her time between hiking to caves, a camping trip, taking a polar plunge, and sea kayaking in one of the last remaining frontiers, her home-base for her Alaska voyage was the 49-passenger expedition vessel, Wilderness Discoverer. And the whales were in rare form as well!

In mid-May, Marissa spent a week in the famous panhandle. Spreading her time between hiking to caves, a camping trip, taking a polar plunge, and sea kayaking in one of the last remaining frontiers, her home-base for her Alaska voyage was the 49-passenger expedition vessel, Wilderness Discoverer. And the whales were in rare form as well!
Alaska's southeast panhandle, also known as the Inside Passage, is a scattering of wildlife-rich islands, national forests, glacier-carved landscapes and secluded port towns rich in local culture. Find incredible glaciers of Tracy Arm Fjord and Glacier Bay National Park. Cities like Sitka and Petersburg offer an eclectic variety of cultures for historic Russian whaling stations to a traditional Scandinavian fishing community. The nutrient rich waters of Frederick Sound and Point Adolphus provide ideal habitat for humpback whales and orcas -- wildlife enthusiasts and scientists (and Adventure Lifers) alike, flock to the area to admire the abundant whale populations.
Our team is waiting and ready to talk with you about your next adventure.

Our assigned planning consultant was instrumental in making the whole cruise booking process absolutely seamless. She helped us with adequate information and advice after understanding what we wanted out of this trip, while taking into account our age and fitness levels. Not once did I feel being rushed to decide. She also provided important tips on buffering for jet lag, acclimatisation and unforeseen delays. Registration was smooth and easy. All in all, exactly what the headline says … pleasant and efficient balanced just right in terms of personal and professional engagement.

I contacted Adventure Life months ago to help me find a cruise to Alaska. It was too early to book Then, but when contacted Karilyn again, she was ready to give us a couple of options that worked with our group for the dates that we needed.
She answered all of our questions and got us the cabins that we wanted. Now we've been handed off to Nur, who is doing a great job with finalizing our reservations.
