WHY IT RATES: Adventure travelers and athletes will love combining the 140-mile competition with an unmatched adventure-style cruise in Alaska. - Lacey Pfalz, Associate Writer, TravelPulse
UnCruise Adventures, an innovator in small boat adventure cruising for 25 years, debuts its 12-night VIP Adventure Charter in collaboration with Travel Juneau and IRONMAN Alaska. The long-distance triathlon recently added Juneau, Alaska to its global race portfolio creating an Alaskan first. UnCruise Adventures was selected as the exclusive small boat operator to collaborate with both Travel Juneau and IRONMAN Alaska to offer a taste of adventure in the Alaskan outback.
The VIP Adventure Charter is offered on the 86 passenger, Wilderness Legacy sailing Juneau to Seattle on a 12-night itinerary through Canada and Alaska's Inside Passage. The itinerary features Misty Fjords National Monument and Glacier Bay National Park, along with plenty of whales, wildlife and wilderness. The 2022 summer cruise itinerary is open for reservations with limited availability and is offering an additional incentive of $250 per person savings for athletes, families, and solo travelers. Travel advisors can now pre-register clients for the VIP itinerary.
"As a Juneau resident and adopted Tlingit clan member of the Killer Whale house we have the opportunity to share the beauty of the capital city and the honored lands of the Tlingit people with more visitors than ever," shares CEO Dan Blanchard, when asked about the race. "After an iconic 140-mile race in some of Juneau's most beautiful locations, we can't wait to show guests what it's like to adventure in Alaska's outback. A place unlike anywhere else in the world."
The all-inclusive VIP charter combines history, culture, and daily multi-activity excursions for all fitness levels, concluding in Seattle. Adventurers can expect to immerse themselves in an environment rich in nature, wildlife and unmatched camaraderie onboard.
The 86-guest Wilderness Legacy is expected to have a full manifest for the August 2022 sailing with the primary IRONMAN Alaska registrations already sold out. "We've always done things a little differently," shares Blanchard. "Now we can pair our rockstar adventure experiences with the epic IRONMAN brand, our long-term partners at Travel Juneau and my Tlingit brothers and sisters to create an unmatched race-cation for the 2022 event. We are honored to be a part of this event."
Travelers and athletes can also enter for a chance to win a cabin for two on the limited VIP adventure. Submissions are accepted through November 30th, 2021, with the winner being announced December 1st, 2021.
