Days: Easy to Moderate Hiking, and Sea Kayaking
Multiple Travel Dates Available
If
you only have one shot at visiting Alaska, this is the
trip for you! It’s the “triple crown” of sea
kayaking, with the most diverse and rewarding experiences
in Alaska you’ll ever find. On Admiralty Island, which
boasts the highest concentration of brown bears in the
world, you’ll watch bears fish for salmon at the Stan
Price/Pack Creek Brown Bear Sanctuary, one of the few
areas in the world where you can view bears in the wild
this close. You’ll also paddle sea kayaks at Point
Adolphus in the Inside Passage, a famous feeding ground
attracting countless marine mammals (humpback whales, sea
lions, and seals among others), then head to Glacier Bay
National Park for an overnight kayaking expedition amidst
a panorama of sprawling tidewater glaciers, icebergs, and
stunning mountain peaks. Our comprehensive adventure
alternates hotel and inn accommodations with wilderness
camping for a real taste of Alaska’s legendary wilds.
