1 THE LAST FRONTIER
BEST FOR: NATURE-LOVING TEENS
Alaska always hits the mark for a wish-list family trip. Big on nature and jaw-dropping scenery, sail during the school summer holidays and you might see whales and grizzlies in the wild, plus snow-topped mountains and milky-hued glaciers. Visit big-hitting Alaska ports and scenic sailing spots including Sitka, Juneau, Tracy Arm, Icy Strait Point and Ketchikan.
For families, the seven-night Seattle departure on board Norwegian Bliss is a fail-safe option. Family Ocean View cabins sleep up to five, with large bathrooms and a room-dividing curtain for when the little ones have gone to bed. On sea days, race around the ship’s thrilling race track, take in a performance of Jersey Boys and play laser tag with the whole clan. Seven-night Dawes Glacier, Juneau & Ketchikan cruise departing Seattle on Norwegian Bliss, August 5, from £2,439 per person, including flights. ncl.com
