Sightseeing from the comfort of a boat is great and Alaska certainly is stunning by land and sea. However, you only see a limited amount of what the state has to offer, and if you’re like me, you don’t want to miss any of the wildlife and beauty. The good news is that many cruises end along the Kenai Peninsula or directly in Anchorage, so it’s easier than ever to tack on an immersive land experience. And since Club Adventures offers small-group tours, you’ll dive deeper into the culture visiting locally owned and operated restaurants, hotels and activities. Plus, once the cruise ships head out, it’s just you, your newfound tour friends and the
Alaskan wilderness (from the comfort of a hotel, of course).

So you have just enough people to make friends from around the world, and few enough to get personalized attention from your Local Leader and be able to explore smaller destinations without crowding them. And, with a Local Leader guiding you, you’re discovering the destination through the eyes of someone who calls this place home. They know all
