    Holland America Line is offering a “Win The Ultimate Alaskan Cruise Experience” as its latest incentive to lure Aussie cruisers to the northern hemisphere hotspot.

    One lucky winner will embark on an unforgettable journey aboard the perfectly mid-sized Koningsdam, departing from Anchorage, Alaska on August 13, 2024, and arriving in Vancouver on August 24.

    The 11-day Yukon + Denali Tour Cruise Tour Y5L takes you through Alaska’s Inside Passage paired with a scenic train trip into Alaska, plus two nights at McKinley Chalet Resort.

    The winner will score a free Verandah room as they take in the breathtaking scenery and to top it all off, they’ll also get a US$100 shore excursion credit and signature beverage package.

    “Our 2024 Alaska cruise season has commenced, offering one fortunate winner an exclusive Alaskan Cruise Tour experience and the chance to see more wildlife and glaciers with Holland America Line than any other cruise lines,” Holland America Line VP partnerships in Australia and New Zealand, Ryan Taibel, said.

    “Australians are increasingly drawn to unique destinations like Alaska, a coveted bucket list locale.

    ‘With Holland America Line, travellers receive a comprehensive land and sea package, exploring the region’s stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife on our perfectly mid-sized ships.”

    The Alaskan Cruise Tour experience competition closes 9am, Friday 10 May AEST.
