Tour 134
The
Aleutian Islands stretch more than 1000 miles west
from mainland Alaska. These islands attracted native
Aleuts more than 9,000 years ago; followed later by
Russian fur traders and whalers. These maritime
islands are a land of haunting beauty with mild
temperatures and home to thousands of sea birds,
seals, sea otters and foxes; whales migrate through
annually. Tour Unalaska with a local guide and
discover the fascinating cultural history of the
island - the last place on earth! Your Aleutian
Island base is the modern Grand Aleutian Hotel. The
hotel was built only 7 years ago to service the
bustling commercial fishing industry which thrives
during the winter months. During the summer season,
the hotel is open to tourists offering first class
accommodation and dining.
