Alaska & The Yukon

At 365 million acres, Alaska is so large that if you saw 1 million acres per day, it would take you a year to see all of the state. Thirty-nine mountain ranges, 100,000 glaciers, 16 national parks, 17 of the tallest peaks on the continent, and incredible wildlife; now that’s overwhelming! You want to see the best of it all, but there’s so much information.

Where do you start? Right here, with Above & Beyond Travel. We’ll help you navigate Alaska and the Yukon, whether you know exactly where you want to go, have some ideas, or just want someone to tell you how to have the best experience.  The itineraries are complex and we'd love to help you determine the best one for you.

Why choose us? That’s simple. Because we’ve been there; because we’ve partnered with the cruise line that does it best; and because we’ll be there with you every step of the way. Getting started is easy. Give us a call or send us an e-mail. We’d love to share our experiences with you.

Premium Mid-Sized Ships in Alaska With as little as 1,260 and no more than 1,916 guests, Holland America Line's premium, mid-sized ships are less crowded.  You don't have to worry about fighting for the best place along their wrap-around promenade deck or in their comfortable lounges.  There's space to see what you want, and when you want.  When you sail on a Holland America Line ship, balconies aren't necessary to obtain fantastic views; they are not a pre-requisite.  So, why don't you go ahead and put that money back in your pocket or spend it in a more valuable place: on an experience that you'll never forget, like flightseeing on the glaciers.
