Trip Description

Our 34-day teen tour of Alaska, Hawaii, and the Pacific Coast is the ultimate summer teen tour adventure. Our journey to the lands of Ice and Tropical Paradise begins as we jet to San Francisco. In San Francisco it's cable car rides, Fisherman's Wharf, Lombard Street and Ghirardelli ice cream sundaes.

The action continues as summer teen tour travelers enjoy action-packed days water-skiing and tubing in Lake Tahoe and challenging themselves at the Squaw Valley Adventure Ropes Course. In Oregon we’ll enjoy a ski lift ride up and an exhilarating alpine slide ride down Skibowl Mountain. The views of Mt. Hood will be spectacular. We’ll visit the beautiful campus of the University of Oregon, take an outrageous Sandrail Dune Buggy Ride across the sand dunes of Oregon, and share a thrilling jet boat trip down the Rogue River.

After nine power-packed days on the Pacific Coast, our teen tour jets to the land of the midnight sun, Alaska. We check into the student suites of the University of Alaska and visit the Portage Glacier and the Chugach Mountains. We’ll board Carnival Cruise Line’s Spectacular Megaliner, the Carnival Spirit, for a seven day Alaskan Ocean Cruise. There’s no better way to absorb all of Alaska’s natural beauty than by cruising Alaska’s Inside Passage. Teen travelers see Hubbard Glacier, the picturesque towns of Sitka, Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan. We’ll enjoy sea kayaking and gold panning in our Alaskan ports. Our exclusive Rein Teen Tour whale watching expedition takes us to Auke Bay, one of the best feeding grounds for Humpback and Orca Whales.

After leaving our cruise ship, your teen tour adventure heads to Whistler for summer snow skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking and golfing. From there we take in the sites of Vancouver and Seattle before embarking on our unbelievable Hawaiian Adventure.

We jet to Maui to begin the Hawaiian leg of our summer teen tour adventure. A great day of snorkeling awaits us as our 65-foot catamar
