EXPLORE ALASKA IN 2023 WITH $700 AIR CREDIT

Benefit from over 40 years of Alaska exploration

There is no place like Alaska—a vast, pristine wilderness of snow-capped mountains, breathtaking fjords, and extraordinary wildlife. America’s final frontier captivates with the promise of discovery and aboard our nimble small ships you’ll have unparalleled access to seldom-seen corners of the Inside Passage and beyond. It’s in these remote parts where you can witness the thunder of a calving glacier, kayak past foraging bears, and linger with a pod of humpbacks. Lindblad Expeditions has been exploring the region for 40 years and our long legacy translates into an incredibly meaningful and authentic Alaska experience for our guests.

With action-packed itineraries for all ages, and expeditions ranging from six to 15 days, it's easy to get out and explore—especially with special family savings: in 2023, parents and grandparents can bring one kid under age 22 at half price, and a second for free. Join us and discover why awe-inspiring Alaska is even better when shared.

Expedition Highlights

This is the Alaska of legend—to experience it you have to go deep. Venture into narrow fjords, where virgin rock that has never before been seen or touched by humans is now being exposed by receding glaciers. Go into remote bays to linger and observe whales going about the slow business of their daily lives. Walk through temperate rainforests on trails worn into the spongy earth by foraging bears. Venture into small towns, populated by hardy, friendly souls, to discover the way life has been lived in Alaska for centuries. Meet First Nations people in mutually rewarding encounters and learn their traditions and ways of life. Plus, sail aboard U.S.-built and -flagged ships to minimize time-consuming protocols to clear customs and maximize time exploring.
