This Royal Signature Excursion℠ delivers a hand-picked small group adventure that wows with its intimate tour size, premium transportation, expert local guides and renowned service. Sail along Alaska’s protected waters on this exclusive small-group whale watching tour. Begin with a journey to Point Adolphus, home to one of the Last Frontier’s largest resident whale populations. Ride on a state-of-the-art vessel that puts you above the whales, sea lions and harbor seals that thrive in these waters — and you’re guaranteed to see at least one whale on this tour. Turn your eyes to the shoreline and scout out eagles soaring high above the ground or brown bears along the coast. Back at Icy Strait Point, ascend 1550 feet up the mountainside on the Sky Peak Gondola to begin your ZipRider adventure. This ride welcomes up to six guests per ride, making it the ultimate group activity. Take in the spectacular views of Icy Strait and the distant Glacier Bay on the world’s largest ZipRider. Fly down to sea level over the rainforest at speeds exceeding 60 mph on this 90-second thrill. This amazing adrenaline-fueled ride ends with a gentle touchdown at the water’s edge at Icy Straight Point.
