Alaska cruise put on by Sheila Smith cruise specialist,  for Michigan

Alaskan Adventure
July 2027

An unforgettable Alaska journey is officially here and you’re invited to experience it with us. This 13‑Day Land & Sea Adventure blends the very best of Alaska: wild, breathtaking landscapes on land and glacier‑filled beauty by sea. From the quiet majesty of Denali’s wilderness to the shimmering blue ice of the Inside Passage, every day brings a new moment that takes your breath away.
Imagine wandering through charming frontier towns, spotting wildlife in wide‑open valleys, riding scenic railways through mountain country, and ending your days in cozy lodges surrounded by nature. Then picture stepping aboard Norwegian Encore, where floor‑to‑ceiling views, incredible dining, and peaceful balcony mornings make the coastline feel close enough to touch.
This is Alaska the way it was meant to be experienced slow, immersive, and full of wonder.
