Aboard the Safari Spirit in Southeast Alaska, you'll meander through the largest national forest in the United States - home to grizzly bears, black bears, mountain goats, bald eagles and wolves.

Our small ship adventures take travelers into an untamed wilderness and allow up-close experiences with the natural wonders of this ecological hotspot that are unattainable with the larger cruise ships.

“Our small ship adventures take travelers into an untamed wilderness and allow up-close experiences with the natural wonders of this ecological hotspot that are unattainable with the larger cruise ships,” said Adventure Life Operations Director Jonathan Brunger. “Brown and black bears, moose, otters, and bald eagles share this region with a myriad of humpback whales, orcas and other aquatic life. It’s truly an amazing place.”
