There’s something magical about gathering the whole family for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure — the kind of trip where you wish time would stand still so you can savor every moment. A luxury Alaska cruise with Regent Seven Seas Cruises offers exactly that, blending world-class comfort, exceptional service, and unforgettable experiences that appeal to every generation.
From grandparents to grandchildren, Regent creates an environment where everyone feels at home. The all-inclusive nature of the voyage means that every detail — from gourmet dining to immersive excursions — is taken care of, allowing you to focus entirely on making memories together. Days can be filled with action-packed adventures or quiet moments of relaxation, depending on the mood of the group.
One standout feature for families sailing to Alaska is Regent’s Club Mariner Program. Designed for younger guests ages 5 to 17, this program offers supervised activities led by professional youth counselors. Movie nights, arts and crafts, mini-golf tournaments, and dance parties keep kids engaged and entertained while adults enjoy their own leisure pursuits.
Immersive Alaska Shore Excursions
Regent’s Alaska itineraries are enriched by an extensive selection of shore excursions that showcase the state’s rugged beauty and fascinating history. These adventures are crafted to suit travelers of all ages, making them ideal for multi-generational cruising.
In Skagway, families can step back in time during a gold panning experience, sifting through riverbeds for nuggets while hearing stories from the Klondike Gold Rush of 1898. For adrenaline seekers, there are ziplines, mountain railway journeys, and rock-climbing adventures up the sheer granite walls of White Pass, followed by a thrilling rappel down. The Yukon Suspension Bridge offers equally breathtaking views for those who prefer their thrills with a little more stability.
Juneau presents the opportunity to soar over glaciers on a helicopter ride before setting foot on the Mendenhall Glacier alongside a mountaineering expert. For an extra dose of adventure, combine icefield flightseeing with an authentic dogsledding experience, spending time with the huskies that power these traditional sleds. Other options include biking through lush rainforests, exploring heritage sites, and even listening to local ghost stories.
With so many possibilities, many families choose their Alaskan voyage based on the shore excursions alone — and Regent ensures every one is as seamless as it is memorable.
