Alaska Getaways 2008

Dear Explorer, There’s a good reason both Glacier Bay National Park and Prince William Sound are included in the bestseller “1,000 Places To See Before You Die.” And there’s a good reason Cruise West is the cruise line of choice for both! Come see for yourself on one of our 2008 Getaways cruises. Listen for the sharp crack! of a glacier calving in Glacier Bay National Park, for the gentle whap of a humpback’s tail against the water in Prince William Sound. Count the sea lions, brown bears and bald eagles as you cruise Icy Strait. Visit Haines, a town bordering 20 million acres of protected wilderness, and follow in the footsteps of the original Gold Rushers in Skagway. Feel the chill of Chenega Glacier on your cheeks and crane your neck skyward at the numerous additional glaciers pouring from the mountains to the sea in College Fjord. For over 60 years our small cruise ships, with never more than 138 guests, have been exploring Alaska in an up-close and personal way: its narrow waterways, majestic fjords and charming ports, all seen from a vantage point no mega-ship could ever match. Join us this year on one of our two unforgettable 4- or 5-day Getaway cruises to Glacier Bay or Prince William Sound and let us show you the world’s most spectacular scenery in Cruise West style. We look forward to welcoming you onboard. Warmly, Dick West Chairman & Managing Director
