Alaska and the Western Canadian Shore are spectacular places to visit. Majestic mountains ... crystal blue fjords ... awe-inspiring glaciers ... and when combined with the luxury and comfort of one of the world's finest cruise lines, you are able to enjoy the majesty in style. Welcome to your Summer 2006 Carpenter adventure -Holland America's Northbound Glacier Cruise aboard one of its flagship liners, the ms Veendam.

Depending on your cruise, you'll depart from either Vancouver or Anchorage, and slowly work your way along the coast. In addition to some wonderful scenic cruising, you'll stop along the way to experience first-hand some of the splendor that is the Inside Passage!

But that's not all ... if you have a hankerin' for more of the Alaska experience, we've also arranged for optional trip extensions, with an extension to Fairbanks, Denali National Park ... home to Mount McKinley ... and Anchorage.

Please take a look through the Website, where you'll find more information about the trip, the ms Veendam, and your itinerary. We look forward to hosting you on this wonderful Alaskan adventure!

(Note: Information about your Itinerary and Destinations are based on the current Holland America schedule, and is subject to change as the cruise line finalizes its 2006 sailings.)
