All tours are hasslefree for guests thanks to inclusion of all meals, accommodations, activities, baggage handling, airport transfers, luxury coach transportation and most gratuities.

With the group size being limited, John Hall’s Alaska can offer small boat and small plane excursions in Alaska’s bush country regions. John Hall’s is also the only Alaska tour operator that builds vacations into all five regions of Alaska, highlighting Alaska’s Indigenous cultures, ecological gems and history of the land. Most travelers have wildlife near the top of the list of things they want to see in the 49th state. Another benefit of John Hall’s Alaska’s in-depth exploration of off-the-beaten-path destinations is that guests can expect to see at least 40% more wildlife than the average Alaska visitor in the same amount of time. By land and by sea, John Hall’s Alaska Cruises & Tours offers distinctive opportunities for travel enthusiasts to discover the wildlife, Alaska Native cultures and geographical wonders of “The Great Land” through one-of-a-kind itineraries. Since 1983, the family-owned and -operated company has been dedicated to sharing exceptional experiences with its guests through extensive, in-depth tours of all five regions of Alaska as well as the neighboring Yukon and the Canadian Rockies throughout the summer, fall and winter months.
