Alaska Holidays

A wild, remote and spectacularly beautiful frontier-land, Alaska is imbued with the essence of the adventurous American spirit. Home to indigenous Alaskans, mapped by the French and British, claimed by Russia and finally purchased by the US in 1867, Alaska eventually achieved statehood less than sixty years ago. Much like centuries past, the state continues to attract modern-day pioneers, adventurers, settlers and opportunists in search of solitude, sanctuary and fortune. This vast region houses the highest mountain in the country, is swathed in thick coniferous forest, barren tundra and taiga, punctuated by epic fjords and glaciers, and supports a range of bird, animal and sea life that is unrivalled. Explore Anchorage, Alaska’s largest city, observe soaring golden eagles in Denali National Park and drive the remote Dalton Highway. The glaciers of Kenai Fjords are breathtaking whilst the rugged terrain of Prince William Sound is home to humpback and orca whales, sea lions and seals.
