Anchorage, Alaska Click for Excursions
Anchorage is the largest city in Alaska, and it's no accident that many of our cruisetours begin and end in this major metropolis. As locals say, "Anchorage is great. It's only 20 minutes from Alaska." Here, you'll find everything you would find in a city in the lower 48. But it serves as a great introduction to Alaska, too.

While on Your Cruisetour
There's so much to do in Anchorage, we could never capture it all. So cruisetours visiting Anchorage usually provide guests with free time to explore on their own. You might want to check out some of the fun activities listed here, or perhaps discover something new on your own. After all, independence is the true spirit of Alaska.

Other Fun Things to Do
For a great introduction to native Alaskan culture, visit the Alaska Native Heritage Center. Opened in 1999, this wonderful, state-of-the-art center features theaters, exhibitions, artists and artisans, a smokehouse, a carving center, and traditional village structures.

Head to Resolution Park for a breathtaking view of the Talkeetnas and the snow-covered Alaska Range. Learn about the Northern Lights, oil exploration, bears, and other local features at the Imaginarium. This award-winning, hands-on science center is great for kids and adults alike.

Local Currency
The official currency of the United States is the U.S. Dollar (USD).
