Alaska Signature Expeditions Highlights
- Exceptional Value: Signature Expeditions provides delightful endeavors at unrivaled rates.

- Kayak Tours: A kayak trip, in select ports, will provide a bespoke experience as they are taken out a distance via Zodiacs, enabling incredible views
- Take a Hike: Typically once during your cruise, a Signature Expedition hike is offered at such places as British Columbia, Haines, Prince Rupert and Sitka.

- Authentic Experiences: Guests will get closer to the awe-inspiring shoreline along the Inside Passage, Kenai Fjords and the Inian Islands. You’ll find the best wildlife viewing, as another Windstar difference, is that your ship’s schedule will be adjusted so you can spend more time in special places, such as when whales are present.
