Anchorage

Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska, is located on Cook Inlet Bay and serves as an important starting point for cruises to the Arctic region. Although Anchorage itself has a port, cruise ships often use the nearby ports of Whittier and Seward for their routes. Whittier is about an hour and a half and Seward about two and a half hours from Anchorage.

The city offers a variety of sights and activities. The Anchorage Museum presents the history and culture of Alaska, while the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail invites you to take a walk along the coast. Anchorage is also an ideal starting point for excursions into the surrounding nature, such as the Denali National Park or the Kenai Fjords National Park.

Cruise passengers who begin or end their journey in Anchorage have a wide range of services at their disposal, including hotels, restaurants and transportation options. Anchorage combines urban convenience with proximity to the stunning Alaskan wilderness, offering a unique experience for travelers.
