Princess Cruises Expands Alaska National Park Cruise/Tours Options

Princess Cruises is expanding its catalog of Alaska cruise/tours with new itineraries that visit several national parks, including Glacier Bay, Denali, Wrangell St. Elias, Kenai Fjords, and Katmai.

The expansion follows the successful launch of the 15-night National Parks Expeditions cruise/tour in 2024. New variations of the tour, which visit from three to five national parks, combine with the line’s seven-day “Voyage of the Glaciers” sailings, and include scenic rail travel, multiple days on land, and stays at four Princess-owned wilderness lodges.

“Our expanded National Parks 2025 and 2026 cruisetours offer guests an array of exciting options that elevate their vacation experience,” said Terry Thornton, Princess Cruises’ chief commercial officer. “With our seamlessly crafted cruisetours, guests are brought directly to the doorsteps of some of the world’s most iconic national parks, allowing them to explore and soak in the awe-inspiring natural splendor that makes this destination truly unique.”
