This shorter four-day land package is efficient, but it also provides for a rich experience within Denali National Park. It complements cruises leaving out of Seward by showcasing a side of Alaska unique from what you'll see by ship. Plus, it conveniently ends in Seward in time for check in on Norwegian and Viking cruises. Booked with Royal Caribbean or Celebrity?
