This tour was amazing and exceeded expectations! Our Cosmos guide, Kip, was awesome, as were our guides for all included and optional tours (Alaska railroad, Doggoneit Kennel Visit, Denali wilderness tour, Prince William sound boat ride, etc). All of the cities visited were awesome and all of the stops in between were so well planned with great scenery/views and opportunity to stretch and explore. Although the lack of a detailed itinerary (with times, durations, etc) prior to the trip bothered my OCD planner self, I could not have imagined a more perfect tour of interior Alaska! Our family of 4 loved every minute of this Alaskan Adventure!

  I'm disappointed by your answers....more clarity please - Other tour operators give specific hotels used, which enables a potential customer to look at what to expect. Don't you use specific hotels in specific locations? Re bed selection, you're saying I can choose any type of bed every night? Hotels give a choice - a king, two beds, etc. Re the cruise- a "charter" what? Ferry, cabin cruiser, type of vessel, please. "start as early as 6:00 a.m." - is that the norm for 16 days? So the total cost is as listed, plus taxes? What are the taxes?
- CosmosOperator•Written February 2025
  The cruise portion of the tour will be handled by Holland America, and you'll be aboard the ship for approximately 16 hours. Regarding room preferences, you'll have the option of selecting either one or two beds in your room. Your days may start as early as 6 AM, depending on the scheduled activities. As of now, the HST/GST taxes are $150.60 USD per person, totaling $602.40.
