If you’re seeking an adventure off the beaten path, look no further than UnCruise Adventures, an iconic leader in small-ship expedition cruising. Based out of Juneau, Alaska, this family-owned company has recently clinched a series of impressive accolades, solidifying its position as a top choice for travelers seeking authentic and immersive experiences.

Named the “Best Small-Ship Expedition Line” by U.S. News & World Report and “Best in Alaska” in the Cruise Critic Editor’s Picks’ Awards, UnCruise Adventures is making waves in the industry. What’s more, two of its ships, the Wilderness Legacy and the Wilderness Discoverer, have secured spots in the top five of USA Today’s annual “10Best” Best in Alaska category, a feat unmatched by any other company.

What sets UnCruise Adventures apart is its dedication to providing experiences that mega ships simply can’t replicate. With a focus on exploration straight from the ships, guests have the opportunity to delve into Alaska’s untouched wilderness, encountering tidewater glaciers, majestic whales, playful bears, and a plethora of other wildlife. As Captain Dan Blanchard, Owner and CEO of UnCruise Adventures, puts it, “Alaska is a must for the adventurous soul,” and with UnCruise, the possibilities are endless.

UnCruise is about fewer people and more space, creating a more intimate setting for guests to grow comfortable with each other throughout the cruise. Like a regular cruise, there is still a private, luxurious cabin to retreat to, but the spacious, inviting community spaces encourage you to spend more time with your fellow travellers. Cruise experiences are able to tailored more effectively to passengers when there is an excellent passenger-to-crew ratio. UnCruise offers all-inclusive, adjustable, tailored adventures to suit the needs and whims of its passengers because of the small-ship setting. If the vibe of one particular ship does not suit your wants, they have plenty of different styles of ships aimed to accommodate someone that might feel more comfortable in a rustic pub, or a premium dining room, or a swanky cocktail bar.
