- Notes
While wildlife in Alaska is frequently seen year-round, May through early June and September departures offer greater opportunities for wildlife viewing. Departures after mid-August offer fall foliage. The Northern Lights (aurora borealis) are most visible in late August and September, weather permitting.
This vacation visits remote regions where some facilities are not up to the first-class standards you'd expect from Globus. However, we have selected the best available hotels that satisfy our high standards of cleanliness and comfort.
