One of our favorite charter yachts in Alaska is Alaskan Story, which charters for up to 8 guests in four guest staterooms for up to $38,500 for a 6 night charter with 2 paid nights in a hotel in either end, which dovetails into the most convenient way to travel to and from Alaska. Alaskan Story charters from Juneau to Sitka and vice versa, depending on the week, which is an itinerary that covers the highlights of Alaska, including whale bubble net feeding, and calving glaciers. And by staying in a specific area of Alaska, Alaskan Song is able to track the migrations of wild and marine life throughout the summer, to put you in the right spot for your week of charter. Northrop and Johnson Yacht Charters has been working with Owner/Operators Geoff and Debbie Wilson for over 20 years from their first yacht that they operated in Alaska up to their present yacht, Alaskan Story. With over 20 years under their belts cruising in this spectacular area, they are truly the mavens in local knowledge.

And local knowledge is absolutely necessary for the best Alaskan Experience, as local knowledge is about where the whales are on their hunt for food from week to week so you can see the bubble net feeding, when the salmon are spawning upstream, where the bears are, and where the Bald Eagles are nesting. In Alaska, if you don’t know where to look, you miss it all. Always stick with local knowledge, and book the yacht with crew with that, which is what we do when booking yacht charter in Alaska.
