Our Alaska Cruise
Tours offer Photographic Opportunities the envy of National Geographic
Enclosed are sample photos taken on our Alaska
Inside Passage Cruise Tours. All the
enclosed photos have been taken on board during one of our Alaska Tours.
During our Inside Passage Cruise Tours we will have the opportunity to see and
photograph many animals in their natural habitats. Over the
years we have catered to both professional and amateur photographers', I have
always tried to encourage our passengers not to view the world around them
through a view finder. We are often given the opportunity to take photographs
the envy of National Geographic.
Unlike the brochures I see from the
Alaska Cruise ship industry these are actual animals you can expect to see while
traveling with us on an Alaska Inside Passage Cruise and not a total
misrepresentation of what we do. I don't mean to be rude but this is what we do,
what we've done and not what we pretend to do. Our goal is to show you Alaska up
close and personal.
On our Alaska cruise tours our days are spent Watching
Whales, Steller Seal Lions, Dall's Porpoise, Eagles, Seals and just soaking in
the beautiful scenery and snow capped mountains of the inside passage of
Southeast, Alaska. We'll explore the glacial fjords and the Temperate Rain
Forests of the Tongass National Forest and we'll walk salmon spawning streams to
see the magnificent bears of Alaska.

Whale watching. ( Who's watching Who! ) A friendly
Humpback whale we've encountered for many years who was coming up to say hello.
On our Alaska Tours we'll see Humpback whales up close and personal.

One of our friendly Humpback Whales swims alongside to say
hi! On our Alaska vacation cruises we are on the Humpback whales feeding grounds
and they are almost daily encounters.

During our Alaska cruise Vacation
we'll visit a Steller Sea Lion Rookery

There is nothing quite as pretty as a beautiful Alaska
Sunset. During our cruises we'll encounter many beautiful
sights.

Crab is always a special teat on our Alaska Cruise vacation.

encounter. Something you will not see from an Alaska Cruise ship.

I have to Thank Susi Zimmerman our fantastic crew member
for many of these photos. Unlike many of the websites I look at these pictures
along with thousands more were taken on our cruises. They really could have been
taken on almost any one of our Alaska Inside passage Cruises. I really don't
like looking through a camera lens and prefer to take it all in. Whether your
are an avid photographer or novice ( like me ) we're presented with the
opportunity to see and photograph some of the world's great creatures, on these
Alaska Photography Tours. If we can provide any additional information about our
