Alaska: Carnival

The natural beauty of Alaska from your window
Only on Carnival Spirit can you experience the Last Frontier Fun Ship style. You'll have a front-row seat as Nature unveils each heart-pounding vista. In addition to having enormous windows in every social area, over 80% of her staterooms have ocean views, and of those, 80% feature private balconies. So, even when you're not on deck, you can marvel at the panoramic views of glaciers, fjords and flower-carpeted fields.

Among the many thrills of your Northbound or Southbound cruise are crossing the Gulf of Alaska and transiting Lynn Canal, with its 67 miles of spectacular scenery. In Prince William Sound, you'll see the 16 glaciers of College Fjord. In the towns of Ketchikan, Skagway and Juneau, you'll have a rousing good time celebrating the glory of the Gold Rush days.

Many adventures, multiple cultures
Other adventures can include fascinating land excursions by train or helicopter. You'll even experience a sense of Russia when you visit Sitka with its onion-domed cathedral. The highlight of a Glacier Bay cruise is a full day in this protected national park, which has numerous sea birds, humpback whales and 15 active glaciers.

Don't miss taking one of these unforgettable cruises. To make it even more memorable, book a private-balcony stateroom and have every spectacular view all to yourself.
