Alaska Cruises - Norwegian Sun

 

There are few better places from which you can appreciate scenery like Alaska’s famous Sawyer Glacier or marvellous cityscapes like Vancouver’s than from one of the many panoramic lounges aboard NCL’s luxurious Norwegian Sun. In between two days spent enjoying the magical views along Canada’s Inside Passage, you’ll call on the remote communities that dot the Alaskan Panhandle. And while bald eagle fly overhead and all manner of wildlife clinging to the ice around you will keep a weather eye on your progress, the people here will have a warm welcome waiting.

Highlights of your journey

KETCHIKAN, ALASKA
Alaska’s ‘First City’ is wedged between the waters of the Tongass Narrows and the steep forests of Deer Mountain. Jetties and staircases make getting about a novel experience, while just outside town are some of the world’s largest collection of totem poles.

SKAGWAY, ALASKA
From one log cabin to a town of 20,000 souls, Skagway grew overnight in the winter of 1897. The Gold Rush came and went, leaving a desolate trail of corruption and gun fighting desperados. The railway followed soon after and you can still ride the White Pass and Yukon Route railway today.

 

JUNEAU, ALASKA
Alaska’s capital is also one of America’s most beautiful cities. A tram ride to the top of Mt. Roberts is a great way to appreciate the view. Visit one of the many mining museums, try panning for gold and shop in the old town, much of it dating back to the 1800’s.

SAWYER GLACIER
Surrounded by snow-capped mountains at the end of Tracy Arm Fjord, Sawyer Glacier is home to some wonderful wildlife. Seabirds, seals, sea lions and porpoises all have their home in the region.

Freestyle Cruising
 
 

Cruising without boundaries
Imagine a world-class resort on the high seas. One-to-one attention indulges your every whim. NCL proudly offers you Freestyle Cruising, a holiday concept that transforms the traditional cruise into a carefree, unique experience with no boundaries. There are no fixed meal seatings with NCL this way, you can plan to dine when it suits you. Restaurants welcome you for seating as early as 5.30pm or as late as 10.00 pm, and remain open until midnight.

Freestyle Restaurants
Take your pick from a la carte gourmet and ethnic restaurants. A pizzeria, an open air buffet, an intimate bistro or a fine restaurant. With Freestyle Cruising, there’s a restaurant for every appetite and the ship’s main dining rooms now stay open for the late-night gourmand.

Freestyle Service
With roughly one crew member per stateroom, you will experience a service ratio typically found only in the finest resorts on land.

Freestyle Attire
Dress according to your mood. After all, this is your vacation. Resort casual attire or dressed for a special occasion. The choice is yours.

Freestyle Activities
There’s only one schedule on a Freestyle Cruise - yours. For those who prefer to be active, our new Lifestyle Program features everything from computer classes to health programmes. We pick the ports - but the rest is your call.

   
 
   
 

Freestyle Gratuities
Unless you tell us to tip more or less, the suggested gratuities are automatically applied to your account.

Freestyle Disembarkation
If you don’t have an early flight to catch, then instead of rising early, hurrying through breakfast and having to vacate your room, you can enjoy a morning of leisure on the last day of your cruise.
