More time to explore Alaska
Alaskan Dream Cruises comes from a long history of providing tourists to Alaska an experience they will remember forever. Started by the Allen family in Sitka, Alaska – Alaskan Dream Cruises is still 100% owned and operated in Alaska. Being based in Southeast Alaska means ADC knows the best ports & itinerary options for nature & cruise lovers who want to escape the cattle-car mass-cruise lines. With vessels ranging from 12 to 76 passengers – you can be assured a trip of a lifetime!
For the active cruiser
Alaskan Dream Cruises
are more about the destination than the voyage.
Our itineraries are filled with opportunities for active exploration, both in intriguing ports of call and in remote wilderness areas. All of our vessels carry expedition craft that enable us to get even closer to the land and sea. Our skiffs are called upon for shallow-water and glacial fjord exploration. These nimble vessels are also used as beach landing craft to allow remote hiking opportunities in areas not accessible to larger craft.
Kayaking is also an integral part of every Alaskan Dream Cruises experience. To ensure guests of all skill levels are able to enjoy this exciting activity, we’ve designed custom-built kayak launchers for easy and safe loading and unloading.
