Cruisetour program details are for general reference and are subject to change. Alaskan-owned and locally operated hotels are featured and due to their remote location, some hotels may not have the same amenities and services normally expected in the lower 48 states; however, all hotels used are clean and comfortable. Hotels are assigned at Norwegian’s discretion approximately 21 days before sailing. One room with a maximum of 4 guests and two double beds is assigned on the land portion of a cruisetour. For bookings of 5-8 guests in a cabin on the ship, a second room is automatically included on the cruisetour. For bookings of 4 or less guests, requests for more than one room on a cruisetour must be made in advance, are subject to availability at the time of the request and will be charged accordingly. Meals are not included in our Alaska Cruisetours. All hotels have restaurants on-site. Other options available are either within walking distance or a short taxi ride from your hotel.
