Drink in the splendor of the
Alaskan wilderness as you
sip cappuccino from your
veranda on our Alaska
cruises. Catch sight of a
humpback whale or wolf pups
frolicking in the snow. From
the breathtaking sights of
Hubbard Glacier to the
pioneering spirit of Juneau,
the gold-rush spirit of
Skagway and the totem poles
of Ketchikan, Celebrity's
Alaska is as rustic and
romantic as one could ever
imagine.
As you explore Alaska's
magic and unspoiled
dominion, our guides and
naturalists share their
intimate knowledge to help

Juneau, Alaska
Where Earl Grey meets Eddie Bauer® would be a good way to describe the charms of Alaska's capital city. Here the pioneering spirit lives on in an interesting mix of cosmopolitan chic and frontier ruggedness. Visit the Alaska State Museum and its exquisite collection of Russian Orthodox and Gold Rush relics.

Hubbard
Glacier (Cruising)
Hubbard
Glacier is the one glacier in the world
that does not move at a glacial pace.
Quite the opposite. In fact, in 1986,
Hubbard Glacier - the largest tidewater
glacier on the North American continent
- moved an average of just under 5.5
feet per hour. Keep a watchful eye as
you sail through the Yakutat Bay, as you
may be a witness to geological history.

Ketchikan, Alaska
In addition
to being the jumping-off point for
seaplane excursions into the Misty
Fjords National Monument and its 2.2
million acres of wilderness nirvana,
Ketchikan is also the ancestral home of
the Tlingit tribe. Another "must-see"
here is the world's largest collection
of totem poles. You can learn what
motivates someone to turn a piece of
lumber into a towering work of art at
the Saxman Native Village and Totem
Bight and Totem Heritage Center.

Skagway, Alaska
It's
doubtful you'll succumb to gold fever,
but if any place on earth can summon up
the thrill of prospecting, it's Skagway.
By embracing its gold-rush past, Skagway
has managed to preserve a frontier
spirit complete with saloons and
dance-hall revues. If the spirit does
overtake you, passage on the White Pass
& Yukon Railway or a ride on the
Klondike Highway will take you to places
where you can roll up your sleeves and
do some prospecting of your own.

Sitka,
Alaska
This
tranquil fishing village was once part
of the expansive Czarist Russian Empire.
Gaze over Crescent Bay and catch a
glimpse of the onion-domed Russian
cathedral from high atop Castle Hill.
Visit the Sitka National Historical
Park, the very spot where native
Tlingits and Russian settlers fought to
the bitter end. Ironically, the strife
of the past has led to the creation of
an eclectic community that reflects its
Tlingit, Russian and American roots.
