Gold Rush & Glaciers – Alaska Cruise Tour
Experience the very best of Alaska and the Yukon on this unforgettable cruise tour combining wilderness, glaciers, rail journeys, and Gold Rush history. From Denali National Park and Dawson City to Glacier Bay and the Inside Passage, this incredible holiday blends land exploration with a luxury Holland America Line cruise onboard Nieuw Amsterdam.
This is the kind of Alaska journey that truly feels like an adventure.
Beginning in Fairbanks, you’ll travel deep into Alaska and Canada’s Yukon Territory, exploring landscapes shaped by the Klondike Gold Rush and some of North America’s most spectacular wilderness regions.
Spend time discovering historic Dawson City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with Gold Rush history, before returning to Alaska for an unforgettable stay in Denali National Park & Preserve. Covering more than six million acres, Denali is home to towering mountains, wildlife, and incredible scenery that feels completely untouched.
One of the major highlights is the journey aboard the famous McKinley Explorer® railcars. Travel through Alaska in glass-domed carriages designed for sightseeing, offering panoramic views of forests, mountains, rivers, and remote wilderness areas along the route to Whittier.
From Whittier, your adventure continues onboard Holland America Line’s Nieuw Amsterdam for a 7-night Alaska cruise through some of the most breathtaking coastal scenery in the world.
Cruise past the towering ice walls of Hubbard Glacier and Glacier Bay, then visit iconic Alaskan ports including Skagway, Juneau, and Ketchikan before sailing the stunning Inside Passage to Vancouver.
This package combines rail, wilderness touring, glaciers, wildlife, and luxury cruising into one unforgettable Alaska holiday experience.
