Destinations

With American Safari Cruises, our yachts spend two full days sailing in Glacier Bay National Park, not merely cruising past the astounding scenery, but stopping to go ashore or kayak with your Expedition Leader or Park Ranger. You'll explore this unforgettable "natural laboratory" where receding glaciers reveal a landscape that hasn't been uncovered from the ice in tens of thousands of years. To experience Glacier Bay is to experience nature in its primary stages, a rare opportunity indeed!

Step into the American west on a yacht cruise that encompasses human history, natural history and even time itself. Experience the rivers completely by jet boat, kayak, inflatable skiff and by transiting through eight mammoth dams. Taste wine from the barrel in Washington's wine country and converse with local specialists as they relate tales of the epic Lewis and Clark Expedition. No other cruise will take you this far into the breadth and depth of the wilderness, history and culture of the American West.

Whether you’re a new visitor or returning, our six unique islands offer distinct experiences that will entice any traveler. We warmly invite you to explore our islands and discover your ideal travel experience.

Travel through Mexico's Sea of Cortés by luxury yacht, kayak, motorized inflatable boats and on foot, and encounter flora and fauna that are found nowhere else in the world.  In this World Heritage biosphere reserve, experience pods of dolphins numbering in the thousands and view the many whale species including the largest living being on earth - the blue whale.

George Vancouver, an English sea captain and well-known explorer, arrived in this area in the early 1790's. After weeks of sailing in the open ocean his mood needed a lift, and when he entered Puget Sound, the very waters that we travel through, he was transformed by the striking, serene beauty of the land and seascapes that surrounded him.
