This luxurious 2-week Alaska journey takes you deep into the Inside Passage, into the landscapes of the Interior and along the coast, showcasing some of the state’s best highlights... Read more
Sail away from the ‘typical’ Alaska cruise experience aboard your own private expedition vessel. Alaska’s Inside Passage is frequented by many large cruise ships, which due to their size are limited to stopping in the same ports of call and sharing the same experiences. But with your own personal voyage aboard the M/V Sikumi, a whole new world of opportunities becomes available for you to see and experience. Explore small coves and inlets, get closer to the wildlife and glaciers of this scenic area. With a maximum capacity of 8 – 12 guests supported by five crew members, your every wish and need will be catered to as you travel through Alaska’s southeast waters.
Sikumi Vessel
The 67-foot Sikumi was custom built expressly for service in Alaskan waters and though the seas in Southeast Alaska are typically quite calm it’s reassuring to know you are traveling in a vessel designed specifically for these waters. From the panoramic views at the galley table to the fully covered upper viewing deck, nothing was spared in creating a comfortable environment for you. The interior of the vessel is well laid out and meticulously maintained. You will enjoy meals in the salon with a full view of the gourmet chef inspired galley and enjoy games and cocktails while relaxing in the living area while viewing the day’s photos at the computer station in the evenings.
Staterooms
Your private vessel features four comfortable staterooms, each with a full en-suite bathroom with vanity and full-size shower. Featuring luxurious amenities you will feel at home during your private Alaska cruise adventure. All four staterooms have queen beds with an optional fold-down twin bunk, making this vessel the perfect option for families with children.
Most M/V Sikumi itineraries begin and end in beautiful Petersburg Alaska. Located on Mitkof Island, Petersburg is accessible by air and sea only – there is no road connecting it to the rest of Alaska. Nearby LeConte Glacier, just 25 miles east by boat or floatplane, is Alaska’s southernmost tidewater glacier and the waters nearby serve as summer feeding grounds of hundreds of humpback whales. Petersburg is the perfect starting point for an chartered adventure in Alaska’s Inside Passage.
Your culinary experience will start as soon as you arrive to the ship, with a champagne greeting along with hors d’oeuvres to celebrate the journey ahead. Fresh seafood will be featured throughout the cruise, and you may even help to catch the seafood yourself!
Your Alaskan adventure will not only feature spectacular wildlife and scenery viewing, but will also provide a uniquely Alaskan culinary experience. The on board professional chef will prepare one culinary delight after another for you. Everything is prepared on board, and with the limited number of guests the chef can cater to any special food needs, diets, or allergies. You will enjoy learning from the chef as they prepare your meals, the galley is open to guests and interaction is encouraged.
When not fishing or cruising, your personal, highly-trained crew will take you on many other adventures. From kayaking in hidden coves to hiking to remote waterfalls, there are activities for all ages and all abilities.
Other possible activities (all included) are: beachcombing, birding, wildlife viewing, fishing, hiking, hot springs, kayaking, shrimping/crabbing, photography, flora, whale watching, and glacier viewing.
