The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Venture into Nome's roadless wilderness on a private wildlife safari to spot musk ox, reindeer, Arctic fox, and thousands of migratory seabirds on the Seward Peninsula — one of the continent's last truly wild frontiers.
Hike the haunting tundra to Nome's iconic 'Last Train to Nowhere' — three derelict gold-rush locomotives rusting majestically on the Arctic plain, a photographer's and historian's ultimate bucket-list moment.
Drive Nome's three extraordinary backcountry roads — the only roads in Alaska that lead to nowhere — through Arctic tundra, ghost towns, and gold dredges on a fully guided, multi-road expedition.
Pan for real Alaskan gold on the very beach where the 1899 gold rush began, then explore historic gold dredges that still haunt the Nome tundra — a visceral, hands-on piece of American frontier legend.
Join a world-class naturalist on an immersive Arctic birding and natural history safari across the Seward Peninsula — one of the planet's premier wildlife corridors for rare Asian vagrants, shorebirds, and tundra species.
Immerse yourself in the living culture of Nome's Inupiaq community — visit master ivory carvers and artists whose traditions span millennia, and acquire authentic Arctic art directly from its creators.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
