Celebrity Cruises
You can extend your journeys in Alaska by choosing from cruise tour itineraries ranging from nine to 13 nights, with the land portions available before or after sailing on Celebrity Infinity, Celebrity Millennium or Celebrity Solstice. Nine itineraries include stops at the classics: Tracy Arm Fjord, Glacier Bay National Park and Hubbard Glacier, and tours include visits to towns such as Talkeetna, Seward, and Anchorage. And just like Princess, Celebrity's rail segments let you gawk at the picturesque landscape and peep wildlife from the comfort of glass-domed railcars as you make your way to Denali. Be on the lookout for moose, bear, grey wolves, caribou and Dall sheep.
Striking Gold: The Celebrity difference? They claim it's the lodging. When you're not staying in the well-designed rooms on board, Celebrity places you in local and boutique lodging during your cruise tour, such as the Alyeska Resort with heated pool and mountain views or cozy Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge.
