Orvis International Travel: Southeast Alaska Cruise. DETAILS AND PRICING.
Experience nature up close with Orvis Travel
A Message from Orvis Travel’s Dave Parker

Orvis International Travel's Dave Parker Last August, I was standing in a wilderness stream in Alaska with a colorful Dolly Varden on the end of my line, and it was putting up a spirited fight for a three-pound fish. Dozens of Dollys and pink salmon were swimming past my boots in two feet of water and I was completely absorbed with landing the fish, until my guide Matt touched me on the shoulder and whispered, “Break the fish off—we have to go, NOW!” He pointed upstream where a young brown bear was ambling our way, and there was no mistaking his intent to claim the section of the river I was fishing.

As we hopped back into our skiff and reversed the outboard, the bear fetched a pink salmon from the spot I was standing just a few minutes earlier. There’s nothing as restorative as exploring wild places where you may not be at the top of the food chain.

The wildlife adventures below were designed especially for you, and we guarantee each one will take you to a fascinating part of the world where you can enjoy nature in a pristine environment. Some include fly fishing but not all, and where there is fishing, there are also many other things to see and do.

Right now, we have special offers and discounts available on some of our best wildlife and fishing trips. It costs no more to book with Orvis Travel than it does to book directly, and we offer you unparalleled service and expertise. Join us for an adventure soon!
