Ultimate Alaska by Land & Sea | June 18-30, 2027

AMAZING ALASKA!

Since 1980, Siouxland Travel & Tours has been organizing and leading custom group tours all over the world. Join us in 2027 as we explore some of Alaska’s hidden treasures. Breathtaking coastlines carved by massive tidewater glaciers over thousands of years, wildlife in their natural habitats, and a fascinating native culture. This Great Land will amaze, engage and delight you.

We begin our tour in the beautiful international city of Vancouver before setting sail on our seven day northbound Inside Passage cruise on Holland America. An elegant mid-sized ship designed not to tower over the scenery, but bring you closer to Alaska’s natural wonders—from calving glaciers to breaching humpback whales. Following the cruise, we will spend three nights on land as we head deep into the heart of Denali National Park and Preserve. At six million acres, the Park is home to countless wildlife and North America’s highest peak, Mt. Denali, more than 20,000 feet high. This is the ultimate Alaskan Vacation you will never forget!
