Senior Sailor Says…
As regular Travel Gumbo readers know, I took a Holland America Line (HAL) cruise to Alaska this year. I can only say good things about the ship, its crew, and the fantastic things I saw on the ship and excursions.
Are you thinking about an Alaskan cruise?
HAL is opening bookings for its 2026 Alaska cruise season. With six ships in the region, the cruise line is filling each voyage with experiences designed around vacationers’ top reasons to visit Alaska, an abundance of glacier viewing, a variety of wildlife sighting, cultural programming, and destination-centric dining.
Guests looking to combine Alaska with more wildlife and the rugged nature of British Columbia can embark on the “Great Bear Rainforest” cruise aboard Noordam, departing April 19, 2026. Roundtrip from Seattle, highlights include an overnight trip to Prince Rupert and scenic cruising in the Grenville Channel, Bella Bella, and Johnstone Strait, with a transit of the Seymour Narrows.
Another Cruise Tour that combines a cruise with an overland tour to Denali National Park and a journey up to the Yukon will be available for booking in the near future; 2025 “Cruisetours” are available for booking now.
HAL offers more opportunities for glacier viewing and access to Alaska wildlife; guests can choose from more than 175 animal sanctuaries, sightseeing, and land excursions to get up close to the region’s most beloved creatures, including options through our exclusive partnership with the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center.
A wildlife expert is on board to help guests witness the majestic animals in the region.
The “We Love Alaska” program immerses guests in local culture with guests in the local culture with authentic onboard programming, cruise activities, and award-winning shore excursions.
And there’s much, much more. For more information, call 1-877-SAIL HAL (877-724-5425) or click here for the website.
I was very impressed with my cruise, and I think you will be too.
