The sleek
profile and maneuverability of our yachts gives you unparalleled access to
Alaska's many wonders. You come so close to pristine waterfalls that you feel
the invigorating spray. Your itinerary is flexible enough that your captain can
change course when word of whale sightings comes over the radio, or slow the
engines and linger in a tidal inlet if bears are out foraging on the beach.  Maybe
all the guests agree they want to spend extra time kayaking, hiking, or
beachcombing. It's your trip.
We
call it yacht cruising. We've plotted a course, set the menu and hired the crew.
You get the pleasures of yachting without doing any of the work.
Lasting Friendships
Because your
cruising party is small, you get to know your fellow travelers, people you'll
have more to talk and laugh about with as the days go by. They're people like
you, curious about new places and able to appreciate roads less traveled. Hiking
or kayaking side by side, you and your shipmates will form lasting friendships.
Our yachts accommodate just 12 or 21 guests, which also makes them perfect for a
group of friends or family to charter.
Expert Guides, Friendly
Captains
You also
become familiar with your crew and staff, whose goal is to make every aspect of
your journey a pleasure and to facilitate your adventures ashore. Most times,
you're welcome to visit the bridge and discuss navigation with the captain.
Throughout your voyage, you're accompanied by a knowledgeable expedition leader
who offers timely narratives about the local history and wildlife, introduces
you to local indigenous peoples, and keeps a lookout for wildlife. Humpback
whales abeam while you're in the lounge? Your guide will sound the alert!
An Inclusive Experience
Maybe you
remember other cruises where you had to pay extra for tours and flightseeing and
your drinks at the ship's bar. Not with us. With the exception of a gratuity for
the crew--which we believe is a very personal elective--everything is included
on our cruise.
From your arrival at the airport
to a fond farewell, you're a pampered guest aboard our yacht. Everything's
included from the first to the last:

Gourmet Dining, Casual Style
Dining
is a true delight, a cornucopia of fresh local seafood, just-baked breads,
hearty soups, exquisite entrees, sinfully delicious desserts. Everyone is served
at one seating, family-style; dress is always casual. Of course, we're happy to
plan for any special dietary needs, and if there's something you've got a
craving for, let us know.
