Overview

Ponant invites you to follow the steps of trappers and of the indigenous peoples of Alaska, during a 15-day expedition voyage aboard L'Austral. From Nome to Victoria, discover a remote territory still wild and unknown, landscape from infinite tundra to glittering lakes, wide spaces, gigantic glaciers, steep mountains and temperate rainforest. During your trip, witness the unique wildlife at some of the sites that have marked the history of Alaska. Your ship will first sail along the Bering Strait, before heading south to reach Saint Paul in the Pribilof Islands.

After sailing in the...read more magnificent Icy Bay to discover a fjord surrounded by hanging glaciers and vertiginous waterfalls, succumb to the charms of Alaska's forests and discover the Tlingit village of Kake, where you might be lucky enough to spot some black bears. Then, set off to meet the whales and other marine mammals in Alert Bay, in British Columbia, before making your way to Victoria, your disembarkation port. We are privileged guests in these extreme lands where we are at the mercy of weather and ice conditions.

The itinerary, landings on certain sites and the observation of certain wildlife cannot be guaranteed. They vary from day to day, making each Ponant cruise a unique experience. The Captain and the Expedition Leader will make every effort to ensure that your experience is as rich as possible, while complying with the safety rules and instructions imposed by the AECO.
