While many people think first of visiting tropical destinations on board a Carnival cruise, tickets to Alaska are also quite popular. These one-week trips depart from either Vancouver or Anchorage. During these excursions, travelers will have the opportunity to disembark at a number of ports. If they elect to take the Glacier Bay cruise from Carnival, among the cities in Alaska they will visit are Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan. Other trips in the region will visit Anchorage and Sitka.
In addition to sampling the natural beauty of the state from the ship, passengers can leave their Carnival cruise and head to numerous destinations once reaching shore. In Juneau, passengers can take a tour of the city aboard a motor coach and visit Glacier Gardens Rain Forest. Those interested in more active pursuits can bike along Auke Lake, which offers breathtaking glacier views, or kayak on Auke Bay. Passengers aboard these Carnival cruises may also have the opportunity to engage in seasonal whale watching. Those who are interested in the history of the area can participate in gold panning. Those on the guided tours will have the opportunity to follow the same route taken by prospectors more than a century ago. Whatever activities travelers choose to participate in, they may also take the time to try the delicious salmon that is native to the area.
From northern destinations to hotspots in the tropics, customers can find discount tickets through Direct Line Cruises. In addition to booking tickets at discount prices, they can gather relevant information about the amenities and activities available of specific ships prior to leaving.
