Great itinerary-beautiful country to visit Spectacular Alaska! , SA, Australia, Aug 2025
Globus trip with 32 passengers-which was a good thing. Space to spread out on the tour bus. Enthsiastic and knowledgeable tour director and equally so driver. Itinerary was great and 2 night stops perfect. We felt however that many of the extras once offered with globus are not there any more. Water eg not provided and hotels now offer minimal starter... read more kits and nasty disposable "dishes" in rooms. Tour meals included were quite basic affairs and did not provide alcoholic drinks as was once the norm...we've been spoilt in the past obviously on tour, particularly with quite special dinners in external restaurants. Dinner being the focus to socialise with fellow travellers rather than rushed meals with guest speakers and home by 7pm!
Ultimate Alaska & Yukon   Ultimate Alaska & the Yukon , NSW, Australia, Aug 2025
We had a truly wonderful time on the Globus Ultimate Alaska & Yukon tour. The landscapes were breathtaking, and the remoteness only added to the authenticity of the experience—it’s exactly what you’d hope for when exploring such untouched parts of the world. Our guide, Kip, was absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about the... read more region. The bus driver also did a great job, making long stretches of travel feel comfortable and safe.

Yes, there were some long days on the bus, but that’s part of covering so much ground in such vast territory, and it gave us a chance to take in the sweeping scenery along the way. Overall, it was a memorable journey through a stunning part of the world, one that I’d happily recommend to anyone wanting to experience the true north in all its rugged beauty. GJ: What a great photo!
Spectacular Alaska with Alaska Cruise Spectacular Alaska! with Alaska Cruise , Victoria, Australia, Sep 2024
Land portion of the trip was awesome as were our guide Wade and our driver Maurice. The cruise part was also great and we were treated exceptionally well.
Touring Around Alaska by coach and cruising from Whittier to Vancouver Spectacular Alaska! with Alaska Cruise , Victoria, Australia, Sep 2024
Firstly the coach tour was sensational with many thanks to our exceptional tour guide Wade and our coach driver Maurice. Wade provided a great insight into Alaska past and present and was very knowledgable and very well organised as well as being a friend. Maurice's driving kept everyone so calm and he to had the coach very clean and was always there... read more for us if we needed and answer or guidance. The places we saw visited and the things we saw were truly amazing and Wade's suggestion to fly by light plane around Mt Denali was one highlight for us as were the Glaciers, wildlife, accommodation and people. The boat cruise with Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam was relatively smooth sailing and everything was catered for onboard. The towns and places we visited were interesting including the glaciers again and the wildlife, scenery, entertainment, food, drinks.

Common Questions Common questions about touring in Alaska

What is the best time to visit Alaska?

The primary tourist season in Alaska runs from May to September with peak season being June to August. The weather in Alaska can be unpredictable but by mid-June, all summer activities are open and available. The cruise season operates over the same months. Mid-June to mid-July is considered to be the height of summer and so demand and prices will be higher then too. More competitive pricing may be found in early May at the beginning of the season and towards the end, in late September. 

Is 7 days enough to tour Alaska?

You can see a lot in 7 days in Alaska and it is a popular length for many itineraries, giving you a great overview of Alaska's breathtaking scenery and exciting experiences. Combining a land journey with a cruise of the Inside Passage will offer a more extensive exploration of Alaska's unique landscapes and culture while giving you another amazing perspective as you cruise past densely forested islands, coastal bays, fjords and waterways. With many of the longer itineraries starting or finishing in Vancouver you get the chance to extend your Alaska travels into Canada as well.
