Whilst superlatives strive to convey the grandeur of Alaska, they never quite manage to capture the reality. America’s largest state is an unfathomably vast and spectacular wilderness; one of the planet’s last frontiers, where the population is sparse (outnumbered by moose!) and the normal routine of everyday life seems so detached. It is so vast and wild, that many ecosystems remain unaltered, creating a prosperous haven for wildlife - this is unquestionably part of the mystique of the ‘Great Land’ of Alaska.

To set foot in a place that seems so unforgiving yet offers so much in return forming part of the ultimate Alaskan wilderness holiday.

Explore Untouched Glaciers - Set foot on glaciers that are as yet untouched by humans; a real privilege.

Flying Safaris – Explore the vast landscapes via biplane for an aerial view and access to untouched areas.

Remote Adventures - Stay in some of the most remote locations in the world for some of the most authentic wilderness experiences possible.

Walk with the Grizzlies - In Alaska you can walk among the largest grizzly bears in the world, the Kodiak bear.

Extraordinary Wildlife Encounters - Encounter puffins, sea lions, orcas and humpback whales, as well as moose, wolves, bears, bald eagles and more.

Alaska takes you away from the well trodden tourist trails and offer the most unique spots to view bears and other wildlife as well as experiencing the ancient, enormous and beautiful terrains of the region.

Incredible landscapes

The largest of the United States, Alaska’s scenery and landscapes are vast, and generally totally untouched.

Stunning wildlife

The world’s largest grizzly bears, humpback whales, moose, wolves and more. The wildlife of Alaska is an astounding mix of the larges, the small and everything inbetween.

The ultimate destination for a grizzly bear safari

Walk with the world’s largest grizzlies, spot them swiping salmon from bubbling salmon spawning rivers, or witness them from a boat. This is one of the best places in the world to see these huge mammals.

Geographically, Alaska is broadly separated into Far North, Interior, Southwest, Southcentral and Inside Passage, each area varying greatly in composition and wildlife. From the Arctic regions of the far north, where you will find polar bears, Arctic fox, caribou and wolves, to the grizzly bears of Katmai. The landscapes of Alaska are those of towering snow-capped peaks, dramatic plunging valleys, fjords, glaciers, forests and perpetual tundra. Rocky shorelines contrast with rolling hillsides and soaring mountains and horizons stretch as far as the eye can see. Such scale can seem daunting, especially for a state whose size is the equivalent of one fifth of the remaining 48 states further south. Indeed much of the area is inaccessible by road, but we have a combination of ship and road itineraries on offer to ensure you see the best bits.

During the summer, you will experience extended daylight, when the sun may rise as early as 4:30am and set at 11:40pm in the capital of Anchorage. The northernmost towns may not even witness the sun set for a remarkable 84 days. 

In the summer it is possible to watch humpback whales off the coast and enjoy some of the world’s best grizzly bear viewing opportunities in their natural environment.
