Holland America Line Reveals 2026 Alaska Cruisetour Details

Holland America Line announced its 2026 Cruisetours allowing guests to combine their Alaska cruise with a journey into Denali National Park and Canada’s Yukon Territory. There are 18 different Cruisetour itineraries offering days at sea aboard Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Westerdam, and Zaandam as well as exploration of Alaska on land.

The itineraries allow guests to decide if they would like to start on land or at sea. Longer itineraries explore Canada’s Yukon Territory which includes stops in Whitehorse and Dawson City. To date, Holland America Line is the only cruise line which ventures into the heart of the Yukon. 

“Guests who embark on one of our Cruisetours get the opportunity to combine our award-winning cruise experience with exploration deep into the heart of wilderness that’s unseen by most,” said Beth Bodensteiner, chief commercial officer for Holland America Line. “And with their arrival at Holland America Denali Lodge, they can take in the awe of this majestic mountain while experiencing the premium service and comfort they have come to expect from Holland America.”

Guests can choose Denali Cruisetours ranging from nine to 14 days aboard Nieuw Amsterdam and Westerdam between Vancouver, Canada and Anchorage or Fairbanks, Alaska. Each Cruisetour features Glacier Bay, and the ports of Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway. Also included are either College Fjord or Hubbard Glacier and Inside Passage. Additionally, guests will enjoy up to three nights at Holland America Denali Lodge. 

The 14-day Ultimate Denali tour includes additional time in Fairbanks and Anchorage as well as an overnight stay at Homer, Alaska. Denali land tours include complimentary Denali Natural History Tours in Denali National Park where guests can search for Alaska’s wildlife in its natural habitat.

Also available are Denali-Yukon Cruisetours which include either a 3- or 4-day Inside Passage cruise aboard Koningsdam or Zaandam or 7-day Glacier Discovery cruise aboard Nieuw Amsterdam or Westerdam. These include a multi-day stay at Denali and Dawson City and also feature overnight stays at Fairbanks, Anchorage and Skagway.

New for 2026 is the 13-day Alaska, Denali and Yukon Cruisetour aboard Nieuw Amsterdam or Westerdam. Guests will fly from Fairbanks to Dawson City and then onto Denali for three days. Guests will then head to their ship in Holland America Line’s glass-domed rail cars for their 7-day cruise from Whittier, Alaska to Vancouver, British Columbia. Guests will be treated to three tours–Riverboat Discovery in Fairbanks, the Klondike Gold Tour in Dawson City, and Tundra Wilderness Tour in Denali National Park. 

Holland America Line is also including the Klondike Gold Tour in Dawson City and the Tundra Wilderness Tour at Denali National Park as part of all Yukon & Denali itineraries. Cruisetour guests will also experience Tr’ondëk-Klondike, one of the newest UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
