Prince William Sound cruise overview
This exciting Alaska cruise is a luxurious yacht experience and opportunity to sail Prince William Sound on the only itinerary of its kind in the region!
Enjoy a night in Anchorage before boarding the cruise in Whittier, Alaska. Then get set to kayak, hike, and skiff past centuries-old glaciers. Puffins, eagles, otter, and sea lions wait around every cove, with plenty of sightseeing along the way.
Safari Explorer is designed for upscale comfort in the pursuit of adventure. This high-end SUV of a yacht is nimble, strong, and loving. The ship has what mariners call “feet” that take her into wild areas big ships can’t visit. Her performance-built rugged construction means access to faraway regions. But it’s what’s on the inside that makes this vessel the prize of the fleet. And with only 36 guests on board, the feel is decidedly exclusive.

Safe travel requirements:
International regulations are changing as the COVID-19 pandemic evolves. Travellers may need to be prepared to take a COVID-19 test and be able to provide proof of their fully vaccinated status.
Local authorities, as well as airlines and cruise companies, may have additional requirements in place for departures. We recommend you check these in advance and again before arriving at the airport. If you're transiting through other destinations during your trip, check on any local requirements at each transit destination and confirm any specific requirements for onward travel with your airline.
Only get tested through verified official testing centres. Scammers are taking advantage of travellers by charging for fake tests. If you're unsure where to get tested, contact the local health authority for advice.
Travel restrictions and guidelines are subject to change as the global situation evolves. The enforcement of certain measures (i.e. covid testing, social distancing, mask-wearing etc.) will vary in different regions. It's your responsibility to check with local health authorities for best practices in their region and ensure that you are eligible to travel.
