4 UnCruise.com small ships, BIG adventures

Welcome aboard. After a crew member gives you a quick tour of your cabin, take a stroll around the ship and head to the lounge for a glass of bubbly and to meet your shipmates. You’re in Alaska, and off the grid.

We’re notoriously adventurous. And thanks to our uncompromising commitment to going places and doing things others can’t, you’re headed on an all-out active experience. It’s that mission that sets us apart. Small ships—hosting 90 guests, tops—get you in the wild with a few nature-leaning souls.

Like each of our adventurers, no two UnCruise departures are ever the same. Engage with our favorite places (they’ll soon be yours!) through on-the-ground, in-the-water explorations. You’ll learn a lot. And, we like to think, look at the world a little differently when you return.

“I never wanted a ‘Big Boat’ cruise: too many people, too many ship-owned shops. UnCruise provided what I was looking for: great people (staff and other guests), great destination and activities.” — Jeff S; Hooksett, NH (2019) Snapshot: Waterfall in love with Alaska? unrivaled. 5 Finding our Un-ness

Alaska, the birthplace of UnCruise Adventures, was and continues to be wide open for exploration. Almost 25 years later, innovation continues to be at the core of our motto. We’re serious about your fun and driven by a commitment to leaving the charted course and really experiencing what the world has to offer. Your crew and everyone working hard behind the scenes has a fierce love of travel, and a deep respect and appreciation for the wilderness, wildlife, culture, and heritage of the places we visit. And we’re pretty proud to say that this rubs off on our guests.

UnCruisers

Our small ships are intimate, and it doesn’t take long for guests and crew to get comfortable. Plenty of laughs are shared during your time on board at meals, cocktail hour, and on excursions. But it’s more than shared experiences. As travelers, guests quickly discover similar hobbies and interests. We bet you’ll find something in common.

Wondering who your fellow adventurers might be? They hail from all walks of life. A medley of ages, lifestyles, places around the globe; couples, singles, and generations of family; educators and the educated (be it the school of life or a PhD), savvy travelers, entrepreneurs, even the occasional celebrity. From the young to the young-at-heart, they are likely a lot like you, and generally like each other. So much so, it’s not uncommon to see them traveling together again.

6 UnCruise.com Unparalleled Value

From your very first inquiry, expect personalized service and expertise—and a host of benefits that make us unique.

Backstage pass Small group travel—from the ship itself to groups of a dozen or so afield—puts you in on the action (not watching from afar), with AHA! and “I-can’t-believe-I-just-did- that” moments around every corner.

Expert guides Seriously—they’re aces. Our guides have vast and deep experience, plus an impressive collection of advanced degrees in curiosity-piquing subjects from whales to fungi to geology. Their enthusiasm is infectious.

Home away Boats are comfortable, welcoming, and unique in style and personality. All are from home adventure-ready for gearing up, kicking back, and mixing and mingling.

Adventure for all Kayak or paddle board. Snorkel or skiff. Beach stroll, hike, or mountain goat climb. There are plenty of options and equipment for everyone to join in the fun. Everyone is in on the action. Active as you like it Do as much or as little as you like. On top of the daily activities, ease into the day with sunrise stretches on the top deck. There’s exercise equipment at the ready, anytime. Or just watch the landscape go by.

Fresh, hand-crafted You didn’t know it would be this good. Chefs (including pastry chefs) impress meal cuisine after meal with locally sourced ingredients, swoon-worthy desserts, and baked- on-board breads.

Cheers to that! An astounding array of beverage options, both non-alcoholic and alcoholic (signature cocktails every night!), means you’re never far from a toast. And it’s all included.

Zero hidden costs What most defines your trip is included in the fare—excursions, adventure equipment, transfers, and baggage handling. Put your wallet away (until it’s time to recognize your top-notch crew).

Accommodating… Dietary restrictions? Special occasion? Need a little extra help on a hike? It’s and then some our business to make sure your adventure not only matches your needs and expectations, but surpasses them. Just ask and we’ll do our best!

The ineffable spirit We’re all in the same boat. Crew and guests alike, wide-eyed with wonder and of adventure childlike curiosity—and it shows. The excitement. Laughs. Collective energy. Then hug it out at the end of your adventure.

It takes permits—thousands of them—to live out our adventure dreams. It’s a big part of the process and it starts years in advance. To keep protected areas wild, the National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Tribal Councils, and other agencies often regulate how many people and commercial operators can enter an area and what they can do there. We’re honored that they welcome us.

Once we’re in these wild places, we go out of our way—and more to the point, everyone else’s—to seek out adventure around every bend. It’s your captain and crew that make your experience. They’re the best in the biz. Your onboard team includes the captain, mates, engineers, chefs, expedition guides, and hotel, galley, and deck staff. All incredibly talented yet unique in the flair they bring on board. Like you, they’ve found their un-ness.

Each crew member is hand-picked for their outstanding knowledge, experience, customer service, and safety skills—and also their genuine enthusiasm and welcoming spirit. Crew members undergo training in areas such as leadership, CPR, wilderness response, safety, guest services, and Leave No Trace practices. In other words, you’re in great hands.

Your ship is equipped with regional books and your expedition team can answer any questions along the way. From whale and bear aficionados to glaciologists, geologists, and environmental scientists, your guides are full of facts and ready to share. Sit in on an after-dinner talk or pull them aside with one of your burning questions. If they don’t know the answer, they’ll find out.

8 UnCruise.com Set.

Preparing for all the possibilities in Alaska can feel daunting. But keep it simple with a few basics and you’ll be set in a snap. Calf-high rubber boots are essential for hiking and bushwhacking—and are the ticket to dry feet. You’ll likely find puddles to jump in, too. Getting from skiff to shore often requires a wet landing, which means walking through shallow water.

Liquid sunshine or cloud failure, adventures carry on. Let your mantra be “layers, layers, layers.” Opt for synthetic, quick-dry materials, or tried-and-true wool. A heavy-duty rain jacket and pants made of waterproof fabric like Gore-Tex with waterproof, taped seams ups your comfort level. A wool hat, scarf, and gloves are handy, but so is a rain hat or pogies (paddling gloves). And when it’s sunny, temps can climb into the 80s. So come prepared. Pack the right gear plus your spirit of adventure and you’re on your way.

You don’t need to be an expert in cultural or natural history to have a full experience, but it can be fun to get a head start on exploration. That’s why we share recommended reading, plus the ever-handy Alaska-specific recommended packing list, and bios and interviews on any accompanying theme hosts. Get to know the people and places of your journey beforehand and get a jump on adventure.

Hiking The upside to varying terrain? You get a range of hikes and difficulty levels. Alaska has trails, though few are established. Bushwhack through brush and soggy muskeg or take a low-key tromp through glacial mud and along intertidal shores. From easy strolls to an hours-long thigh- burner, hiking runs the gamut. And of course, hiking poles are at-the- ready if you want them.

Kayaking & paddle boarding Paddling through ebb and flow can be a workout or a natural way to reach your destination. Open paddling is offered, but most kayaking is guided with outings lasting from one to four hours. Ever see a 90-year- old kayaking for the first time? It’s inspiring. Paddle boards are also available. If conditions are mellow and the water is smooth, give it a try. Your guide shows you the ropes.

Skiff rides From a quick shuttle to shore to a two-hour exploration, skiff rides get you farther faster. Want an easy going adventure? Just settle in and focus on what’s around you. Skiff rides are a piece of cake, fun, and a terrific way to explore an ice-filled fjord or scruffy Alaska shoreline.

Polar plunges Jump in. Take a giant leap off the fantail into frigid water (followed by a beeline to the hot tub—toddy in hand). Only for the brave or double dog darers. They’re out there!

Alaska Explorations

Your guide leads the way for a close-up of good old-fashioned Alaskan muskeg. Trees drip with pale green lichen—the natives call it witch’s hair or old man’s beard. Rain pings on a pond. Shiny black mushrooms line a tree stump (awnings to a critter’s tiny home). Two flickers of brown peek through the green. A mom and baby moose navigate with trepidation. Even the guide is surprised to see them.

Moss and moose, thunderous glaciers, and tiny potato birds on the wing— Alaska is full of surprises great and small. UnCruise is the first to arrive, the last to leave, and nobody does it better. From the first burst of spring to the golden days of fall, sharp eyes peeled for eagles, puffins, mountain goats, bears, and along the Canadian Inside Passage, Kermode “spirit bears.” And of course, humpback whales. Hike, kayak, hot tub under the stars. Play in the mud (rubber boots… you’ll need them) and take a polar plunge. Plans for everyone, whatever your level of activity.

Now, just pick your adventure. Our 7- and 14-night cruises each explore Alaska a little differently. Fares differ depending on your vessel, departure date, and itinerary, but there’s an excellent option to fit most any budget.

Each vessel has a unique personality. But all share a universal goal—to offer relaxation, comfort, and camaraderie. The crew calls you by name and quickly knows your preferences, making you feel right at home. You’ll be impressed with how enthusiastic and accommodating everyone is. There’s good energy and excitement.

Visit the captain on the bridge and learn about navigation. Share a few laughs in the lounge or on the bow eyeing the next WOW! moment. And it’s easy to find a little solitude in a quiet nook when you want it. What guests least expect though, is the bonding and the heart. Sharing adventures with people who became friends for life, and meeting so many returning passengers.

Outer Decks & Inner Spaces • An inviting dining room and lounge (with a variety of board games, books, and DVDs) • Observation decks for wildlife viewing and relaxing under the stars • Open bridge policy—visit with your captain and mates • On-deck hot tub • Fitness equipment or on-deck yoga stretches

26 UnCruise.com Local. Fresh. Inspired.

A simple motto with delicious results. Our culinary program begins by building relationships with local farmers and vendors—with a focus on what’s fresh and sustainable. Field to table and ocean-friendly seafood from the waters we cruise in. The result? Innovative, nutritious, and tasty dining experiences that highlight flavors of the region. Sample buttery-rich Dungeness crab caught live, in-season, by Alaska fishermen. Or, savor your salmon topped with locally grown micro greens. Ever tried kelp chips? You’re in for a treat. And a true taste of place.

What you can expect • Early-riser breakfasts of fresh fruit and baked-on-board pastries • Full breakfasts with hot and cold options • Lunches range from salads and sandwiches to homemade soups and regionally influenced dishes • Varied hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour • Dinners with a choice of entrées including fresh, local seafood, meat, and vegetarian dishes • Made-from-scratch desserts like tiramisu and lavender panna cotta • Vegetarian dishes are available at all meals • Special dietary needs can be met with advance notice

Unless there’s a special barbecue or lunch on shore, most dinners are served over several courses. Breakfast and lunch may be plated or buffet-style, depending on your vessel. Attention is always paid to your personal preferences. And dining is casual with open seating so you can join new friends and choose a different table at every meal.

Celebrating a special occasion? Let us know when you book your cabin. Our expert pastry chef, and all the crew, love shout-outs.

“[The] hotel manager learned kids’ food preferences and made sure their needs were always met. Chef... cooked some of the best food I’ve ever eaten on a boat.” — Brian S; Akron, OH (2019)

unparalleled. 27 On the Menu

Early morning sees a passing of the torch. The pastry chef has baked through the wee hours of the morning. And after dawn, head chef and sous chefs prepare the hot-from-the-stove portions of the meal. Masters of innovation and improvisation, menus spark of inspiration.

Your galley crew is attentive to ingredients. They also pay close attention to how food options meld with the activities and conditions of the day. Savory salmon cakes are satisfying starters after an invigorating hike. Belly-warming soups are perfect after a chilly glacier adventure. At mealtimes, there are vegetarian, meat, or fish options to choose from. And if you can’t decide, try a sampling—just ask for half-and-half!

— Sample Breakfast Menu — Avocado toast topped with pesto, grilled tomato, poached eggs & red pepper sabayon • Prosciutto, asparagus & goat cheese omelet • Banana pecan pancakes • Sweet potato hash • Sausage, bacon, ham • Fresh baked pastries

— Sample Dinner Menu — Field greens with fresh raspberries, caramelized chevre & champagne roasted shallot vinaigrette

Cinnamon poached pear with puff pastry & salted caramel 28 UnCruise.com Wetting Your Whistle

The vibe depends on the vessel. Your setting might be reminiscent of a neighborhood pub, intimate wine bar, or upscale lounge. Specialty coffee and teas are always available. Wines tend to come from Washington and Oregon, but impressive international wines are also available. Most of our boats feature sustainable cask wines on a rotating tap.

Behind the bar, you’ll find premium and small batch, craft spirits. Along with cocktails mixed with seasonal, local ingredients, house-made mixers and cordials, even some house-infused spirits (like a cucumber vodka or gin). The UnCruise Bloody Mary mix is popular, too (guests line up for the stuff). Call us cocky, but we’re confident that we can hang our hat on having the best craft bars afloat!

And while the occasional tastings do pop up, the nature of most bartenders is that of a tinkerer. Inspiration can come from the unique experiences of the day, the wilderness explored, or stories from hearty explorers—including you. With a specialty cocktail each day, creativity is always shaking—or stirred. So drink up! Fine wines, spirits, and microbrews served aboard are included in your fare.

“This was perfect for us!... We made friends each night in the lounge and it felt like a dinner party.” — Richard L; Kamas, UT (2019)

unfaltering.unbottled. 2929 The Fleet

Much like any family, each small ship in the fleet has its own character and is different from its siblings; yet each is comfortable and inviting. Your home away from home.

Designed for action and to bring the outside in, their shallow drafts mean access to places bigger ships can’t go. All cabins are outside (either the window faces the water or one step through the door and you are out in the fresh air).

From a kayak launch platform, swim step, or activity-launch in tow, to a lodge-like feel with creature comforts (no internet and most guests don’t miss it), each one is there to deliver.
