You can enjoy the beauty of Alaska on a Disney Cruise Line vacation this summer! For the first time, Disney Cruise Line is offering a special 9-night sailing that stops in Sitka, Alaska. This beautiful, charming seaside town is filled with history and culture. If you are sailing on the 9-night cruise departing May 24, 2014, you can enjoy one of the following Disney Cruise Line port excursions in Sitka, Alaksa.
Wilderness Sea Kayaking Adventure – This adventurous experience is a great way for your family to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Alaska up close. You can try sea kayaking with a spectacular wilderness backdrop. Plus, you will have the opportunity to see wildlife such as bald eagles, herons, porpoises, and even humpback whales that occasionally come to the surface for air.
Jet-Cat Wildlife Quest and Beach Exploration – Another great way to spot Alaskan wildlife is on a catamaran adventure. Your family will be able to search for whales, sea otters, puffins, bald eagles and brown bears from the open deck or inside a warm, spacious cabin while guided by an expert naturalist. Then, you will visit a remote island where you can explore the shore’s colorful tide pools, search for wildlife tracks, and just enjoy the pristine beauty around you!
Sitka Culture, National Park & Raptor Center – This Port Adventure combines three popular destinations in Sitka for families who would like a cultural experience in addition to wilderness adventures. You will first head to the Alaska Raptor Center to check out exhibits of bald eagles, owls, falcons and other birds of prey. The next stop is the Sitka National Historical Park, where you can explore the natural Alaskan rainforest on a guided walk, see totem poles, and learn about the ancient Tlingit people at the park’s museum. The last stop is a Tlingit Clan house for an educational and entertaining experience of storytelling through dance, songs and native clothing.
