Sail alongside pods of orca whale and see breaching humpbacks. And on land, every day is active and engaging. Hike through lush forests to cascading waterfalls, and ride Zodiacs into secluded inlets to look for brown bears. Step aboard for an unforgettable travel exploration of a dynamic environment—and get the most in-depth experience possible. Lindblad’s small expedition ships (62 to 100 guests) to Alaska are perfect for exploring places large ships cannot go, and they foster welcoming communities where camaraderie kindles.

Explore under the sure guidance of an expedition leader, five veteran naturalists, including a Lindblad-National Geographic certified photo instructor and an undersea specialist, plus a wellness specialist––the largest and most knowledgeable expedition team in Alaska. Their knowledge and passion for Alaska is the key to your once-in-a-lifetime experience.
