Wilderness Discoverer
A little larger than her sister ship the Wilderness Adventurer, the 76-guest Wilderness Discoverer keeps the same back-to-nature feel. Her layout makes the most of the scenery, with an open bow for quiet wildlife spotting and a cedar-panelled lounge that feels part lodge, part expedition station.
This is a vessel built for discovery. Daily excursions range from forest hikes and beachcombing to kayaking through narrow fjords, with all equipment (even wetsuits) included. In quieter moments, you’ll soak in the hot tub or sip something local at the natural-wood bar.
Cabins are simple but comfortable, each with large windows and private bathrooms. Trailblazer and Pathfinder rooms are the best for views, while Admiral cabins offer sun deck access and sleep up to three. With an open-seating dining room and evening briefings from expert guides, the Wilderness Discoverer offers a deeply connected, off-script way to experience the real Alaska.
About UnCruise
UnCruise offer something truly different from our other Alaska partners: small-ship expedition cruising with a wild heart and an adventurous edge. Its nimble fleet – yachts and expedition vessels carrying between 22 and 86 guests – slips into secluded bays and channels that larger ships can’t reach, from the icy fjords of Alaska to the untouched corners of the Pacific Northwest.
Each day is built around immersive exploration. Guided hikes, kayaking, paddleboarding and wildlife watching are all included, as are premium drinks and chef-prepared meals showcasing regional ingredients. Morning briefings set the tone, while evenings often end with storytelling by the fire or stargazing from deck. Cabins are compact but considered, with large windows and practical comforts.
There’s no Wi-Fi in the wilderness – but when you’re spotting whales off the bow or watching bears onshore, you won’t miss it. A multi-award-winning cruise line, UnCruise consistently earns recognition for its authenticity, environmental ethos and attention to detail. For those who seek genuine, off-the-grid discovery without compromising on hospitality, this is expedition travel at its most intimate.
