This year Princess Cruises is offering passengers fresh ways to experience Alaska, with a variety of new shore excursions for the summer.
Among the 20 new excursion options is a unique opportunity to join a scientific expedition while in Juneau to help study climate change and wildlife behaviour patterns.
Passengers can also get closer to the dramatic glaciers of Tracy Arm, pilot their own zodiac on a tour of Ketchikan or enjoy the opportunity for animal encounters at a film trainer’s wildlife park. They can enjoy whale-watching and bear viewing, visit the beautiful Butchart Gardens, or try a high-speed catamaran trip for an in-depth exploration of the twin Sawyer Glaciers.
These new options join Princess’ extensive shore excursion program, which currently offers 215 different Alaska tour options for passengers, starting in May.
