Explore True Alaska with True Alaskans on Alaska's small ship cruise line. Alaskan Dream Cruises is owned and operated by the Allen family--members of the Alaska Native Tlingit tribe and life-long Alaskans. The family draws upon their unrivaled knowledge of the area to craft 5- to 10-night expeditions aboard vessels ranging from 10- to 76-passengers. Itineraries showcase the region’s most abundant wildlife areas, wilderness bays, and glacial fjords. Port calls include small towns and seldom-visited villages. Vessels carry skiffs and kayaks for up-close encounters and active exploration. Talented chefs prepare all on-board meals, with an emphasis on fresh Alaska cuisine. Evening activities range from educational presentations by Naturalists to barbecues and bonfires on remote beaches.
