The 49th American state has become an increasingly popular destination, and National Geographic Traveler: Coastal Alaska is your pass to a truly unique and different land. Alaska has more mountains, glaciers, and wildlife than almost any other place in the world, and seems as if it was created just for cruises: Its 6,600 miles (10,622 km) of coastline offer an infinite amount of natural beauty to passengers aboard a ship, particularly along the southern coasts of the panhandle where the legendary Inside Passage lies. A cruise is also the best way to reach the most regions on land, the islands, the continental coast of Ketchikan, and as far away as Skagway. If you're lucky enough to visit Alaska by ship, this guide offers you one-of-a-kind experiences at every port of call, as well as in Seattle and Vancouver, the main ports of departure and essential stopovers in every cruise in northern waters. Find itineraries for: Touring cultural collections in Juneau; Taking a cruise on small boats through sculpted icebergs, with a watchful eye for seals, porpoises, and arctic terns; Discovering the unbridled wilderness of natural parks including Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve and Denali National Park; Kayaking and canoeing with a guide through Alaska's beautiful fjords and waterways; Visiting the onion-domed St. Michael's Russian Orthodox Cathedral in Sitka, Southeast Alaska's only oceanfront town; and so much more! For nature lovers, explorers, and cruise ship aficionados, this is a one-stop guide to the rich beauty of coastal Alaska, the perfect resource to make the most of your next adventure.

Each book provides inspiring photography, insider tips, and expert advice for a more authentic, enriching experience of the destination. These books serve a readership of active, discerning travelers and supply information, historical context, and cultural interpretation not available on the Internet. National Geographic Traveler: Alaska is the travel partner you need to organize a visit to the boundless uncontaminated spaces of "the Great Land" of Alaska, the largest American state, where nature dominates with the highest number of mountains, glaciers, and pristine wildlife in the world. You can travel around Alaska in many ways, but more than half of visitors choose cruises to begin their adventure among glaciers, wildlife, and national parks, especially along the southern coasts in the panhandle, where it's possible to travel through the legendary Inside Passage. Travelers can reach remote places on the mainland, the islands, and the mainland coast from Ketchikan to Skagway, as well as Vancouver or Seattle, from various landing ports. Visitors can rent cars, vans, and campers or use the Alaska Railroad to explore the immense hinterland or reach Denali National Park and Preserve, where caribou, wolves, moose, white bighorn sheep, and the iconic grizzly bear roam. Admire the unique scenery of the majestic Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, home to numerous glaciers overlooking the sea, on an unforgettable cruise or local ferry during the summer.

But beyond those historic walls, expert National Geographic writers provide thousands of other suggestions to immerse yourself in the colonial streets of Lima, taste the regional food, and explore Cusco, the ancient capital of the Inca empire at 11,155 (3,400 m) above sea level. In this richly illustrated guide, find excursions to rarely-visited sites including the red sand beaches of Paracas Reserve--the first UNESCO protected natural area--and insider tips on popular destinations such as Lake Titicaca and its floating villages. Plus, follow our guides through the Peruvian Amazon--the best kept secret of South America and the last virgin forests on Earth. Comprehensive, practical, and inspiring, this is the ultimate guide to well-known and hidden Peru.
