Travel Canada Alaska your way
Explore a wide diversity of coach / bus tours through Canada Alaska. We have 5 adventures that vary from 14 days to 31 days. With the greatest number of departures in July, this is also the most popular time of the year.
The Canadian Rockies and Alaska region offers some really well-thought-out explorer tours. Our most requested package combines mountain exploration with an Alaska cruise; it's a smart way to experience both territories properly. The Ice Explorer trips are particularly interesting - you'll ride specialized vehicles right onto the ancient Columbia Icefield glaciers. Around Lake Louise, guided heritage walks give you time to understand the early settlers' stories while looking out over the distinctive turquoise water. One of the special touches we've arranged is private access to First Nations cultural centers before they open to the public - you get to learn about indigenous traditions over breakfast without the crowds. What works well about these tours is how they balance structured activities with personal time; you might choose to take a helicopter flight over the Rockies or simply walk through old-growth forests at your own speed.
Select from our extensive range of 52 fully guided tours to enjoy a worry-free experience through Canada Alaska with our expert guides leading the way.
Explore a wide diversity of ocean cruise tours through Canada Alaska. We have 20 adventures that vary from 14 days to 36 days. With the greatest number of departures in May, this is also the most popular time of the year.

Small Group
5 tours in Canada AlaskaOur small-group tours through Canada and Alaska create an excellent balance of organized travel with personal attention. Customers routinely tell us how much they love the Yukon Explorer program, where groups stay small enough to properly experience watching caribou migrate across Tombstone's tundra, panning for gold in historic settlements and also exploring Dawson City. Guides like Stefan bring invaluable local expertise, positioning vehicles perfectly for safe bear viewing while sharing deep regional knowledge. The Rockies-to-Alaska route combines private morning visits to First Nations cultural centers, guided heritage walks around Lake Louise's distinctive waters and authentic wilderness experiences. What makes these tours special is how the smaller groups can access hidden spots like Kluane National Park's Auriol Trail, spend quality time observing brown bears fishing along Alaska's coast and maintain schedule flexibility throughout. By blending wilderness hikes with cultural visits in places like Skagway, Ketchikan and also traditional communities, travelers forge meaningful connections with both the dramatic landscapes and rich local heritage.

Our Alaska and Yukon tours work really well for people traveling solo - the small groups make it easy to make friends while having your own space. The guided hikes around Tombstone Mountains and gold panning sessions in Dawson City create natural opportunities to connect with others. Solo travelers particularly like how we mix scheduled activities with free time in Whitehorse, where they can join group outings or hit the hiking trails on their own. The combination of stays in welcoming northern towns and optional add-ons like scenic Denali flights lets everyone shape their trip while having the safety net of an experienced guide.
Our Canadian Rockies luxury tours really hit the mark with couples. Those Fairmont hotels, especially in Lake Louise and Banff, have this perfect romantic atmosphere that pairs just love. Days are filled with activities like hiking Jasper National Park or exploring Athabasca Glacier in an Ice Explorer, while evenings are for fine dining with mountain views. The Alaska Inside Passage cruise portion gets great feedback - couples can watch glaciers calve from their private balcony and explore gold rush towns together. There's flexibility to add special touches like helicopter rides over the Rockies or wine tasting in Kelowna which lets each couple create their ideal trip.
Active adventures through the Canadian Rockies and Alaska really appeal to younger travelers. The mix includes challenging hikes on Kluane's Auriol Trail, kayaking through Misty Fjords and getting up close to bears in Katmai Park. Young travelers particularly connect with how we blend physical activities and cultural experiences - from First Nations traditions at the Squamish Lil'wat Centre to Klondike history in Dawson City. We've built in enough free time around Whistler and Vancouver for independent exploring while keeping group activities that naturally bring young travelers together.
Our train and cruise combinations really work well for senior travelers. The Rocky Mountaineer's glass-dome cars offer easy viewing of the Rockies with great service and included meals. The pace feels just right - mixing visits to Victoria's Butchart Gardens and Vancouver city tours with relaxing Alaska Inside Passage cruises. Seniors appreciate our walking tours through historic Skagway and Ketchikan, with options for more active excursions if they're interested. Having premium lodging options and tour directors who handle all the details makes these tours ideal for mature travelers who want to explore without any hassles.
The Rocky Mountaineer train journey really sets the tone for our family tours through Canada and Alaska. Kids get excited spotting wildlife through those glass-dome carriages while parents can relax with good meals and comfortable seats. Driving onto ancient glaciers in those massive Ice Explorer vehicles at Columbia Icefield is always a highlight - you should see the looks on everyone's faces. Families tell us they love the Discovery cruise in Fairbanks, especially the stop at the Athabascan village where kids dive into Native traditions. There's plenty of wildlife watching built in, from whale spotting in Prince William Sound to bear watching in Denali Park. We've balanced the educational parts with fun activities and added enough breaks so nobody gets overwhelmed.

Best time to visit Canada Alaska
- Summer 2025
Long summer days make these northern regions perfect for spotting wildlife and exploring. Most people go for tours mixing land exploration with Alaska cruises - you'll see massive chunks of ice break off in Glacier Bay and brown bears catching fish along the coast. The Columbia Icefield Ice Explorer trip comes up again and again in our customer feedback; they love actually walking on ancient glacier ice. Summer stays at Fairmont hotels give you ideal bases for hiking and wildlife watching. We've got this one tour with a wagon ride to a BBQ dinner along the Bow River that our clients say captures real western Canadian culture. When you're traveling through Jasper and Banff parks, keep your camera ready - elk, bighorn sheep and sometimes grizzlies show up right beside the coach.

How do land tours and Alaska cruises work together?
You'll find most people start with exploring the Canadian Rockies seeing amazing places like Banff and Lake Louise before hopping on their Inside Passage cruise from Vancouver. If you prefer you can do it the other way around - cruise first then explore the Rockies and finish up in Victoria. Want to see even more? Tours like "Heart of the Canadian Rockies with Alaska Cruise" let you experience both the Rockies and interior Alaska and you can add on spectacular train journeys on the Rocky Mountaineer or Alaska Railroad.
What cultural experiences can you join in Canada and Alaska?
There's some incredible First Nations culture you can experience firsthand at cultural centers and traditional villages. In Whistler you've got to try the authentic Squamish Lil'wat traditions they share a special presentation and breakfast at their Cultural Centre. Love a bit of history? Head to Dawson City Yukon where you can catch a fun can-can show at Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling Hall it's actually featured in tours like the "Ultimate Alaska & the Yukon". Over in Fairbanks Alaska you can learn about Athabascan Native culture at the recreated Chena Indian Village part of the "Alaska & Yukon Explorer" experience.

Then there's Kluane National Park in Yukon reached by some gorgeous scenic drives where you'll find Canada's highest peak Mount Logan and massive ice fields. If you're near Seward Alaska don't miss Kenai Fjords National Park best seen by boat tours where you can check out tidewater glaciers and marine life it's a highlight of the "Alaska & Yukon Explorer" tour.

In cities like Vancouver and Victoria you've got easy public transport with buses and ferries. Between cities coach buses are great taking scenic routes through the Rockies and Alaska popular with tours like "The Canadian Rockies with Alaska Cruise". Want something special? Try the Rocky Mountaineer or Alaska Railroad featured in tours like "Spirit of the Rockies" they're absolutely spectacular ways to see the landscape. For those remote spots particularly in Alaska floatplanes are your best bet.
What about those hidden routes travelers love?
The Top of the World Highway between Dawson City Yukon and Fairbanks Alaska takes you through some incredible remote tundra landscapes. People really love this route when they want to get off the tourist trail it's pretty isolated but absolutely beautiful. The Denali Highway is another gem running along Denali National Park's border perfect for hiking and exploring real Alaskan wilderness. One of our travelers Maakere from New Zealand had an amazing time seeing black and grizzly bears from their minivan on Ruby Range Tours' "Alaska & Yukon Explorer" they loved Denali National Park and mentioned how nice it was staying in comfortable hotels along the way.
