Escape to Alaska
Escape to Alaska
Sail, eat, and explore your way through The Last Frontier with Oceania Cruises.
With its glaciers and snow-capped mountain peaks, wildlife spotting opportunities and aurora borealis sightings, Alaska is a destination unlike any other. And thanks to Oceania Cruises’ itineraries and excursions, you’ll get to see the best of the 49th state with ease.
Stop in the capital city of Juneau for exceptionally fresh seafood, including three different species of crab pulled right from the waters offshore. In Homer, nature adventures abound, from relaxing visits to picture-perfect peony farms to worth-the-challenge sea kayaking excursions. In Ketchikan, take one of Oceania Cruises’ beloved Culinary Discovery Tours, visiting an oyster farm and taking a chef-led cooking class. And in the tiny port of Whittier, sail past a whopping 26 glaciers in Prince William Sound on one of the premier Oceania Select Excursions.
“Stop in the capital city of Juneau for exceptionally fresh seafood.”
Of course, the natural beauty and bounty is just the beginning of Alaska’s beauty. The Indigenous people were the first to make their mark on this land, ones that endure through to today. Juneau is also home to the Alaska State Museum and one of the most comprehensive histories of the state’s native people. Don’t miss the one-mile-long Kooteeyaa Deiyi (totem trail), a lovely stroll with a dozen authentic Indigenous totem poles. Outside of the capital city, there’s more to discover. In under-the-radar Icy Strait Point, for example, you can actually visit and celebrate with the local Tlingit tribe.
While part of the Oceania Cruises experience is the itinerary, much of it is the onboard experience. When you’re not spending time on tours in jaw-dropping ports, the 624 suites and rooms onboard Oceania Riviera provide intimate luxury that simultaneously makes you feel pampered beyond belief and right at home. It’s spacious staterooms with marble- and granite-clad bathrooms. It’s lounges with live music, and spa treatments at Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center that make your worries fade away. It’s even afternoon tea, complete with four-tiered pastry carts and the background notes of a string quartet.
“Take one of the cruise’s enriching courses, like the cooking classes at The Culinary Center.”
If you’re looking for a vacation that’s a little more involved, you’re in luck. Jam-pack your itinerary with mornings at the rooftop paddle tennis court and afternoons at the sun-drenched pool. Or take one of the cruise’s enriching courses, like the cooking classes at The Culinary Center or the art seminars in The Artist Loft. And don’t forget to wile the night away dining at the gourmet restaurants, watching the world-class shows, grabbing a classy martini at one of the bars, or testing your luck at the casino.
The secret sauce of it all: the Oceania Cruises’ crew’s genuine hospitality. With two staff members for every three guests—including an exclusive butler service for certain suite guests—you’ll wait and want for nothing more.
