Royal Caribbean International And Celebrity Cruises Vacationers Gain Uncommon Birds-Eye View Of Alaskan Wilderness

Vacationers usually exploring Alaska at bear-level height with Royal Caribbean International or Celebrity Cruises, now can soar over the majestic wilderness from the perspective of an eagle on North America's longest and highest zip-line - the ZipRider. Traveling a distance of 5,330 feet from a mountaintop 1,330 feet in elevation to the beach below, guests can experience the exhilarating shore excursion at Icy Strait Point during their Alaskan cruise or cruisetour adventure.

The ZipRider features six individual cables allowing six riders to launch simultaneously or independently while buckled in and seated in a secure harness. Guests can enjoy magnificent vistas of the awe-inspiring mountains and ocean, reaching speeds up to 60 miles per hour. Riders begin and end their ride on a launch tower and landing platform, respectively, never having to touch the ground and therefore, minimally impacting the pristine surroundings of Icy Strait Point.

For travelers seeking a more in-depth Alaska experience, Royal Caribbean International cruisetours and Celebrity Cruises cruisetours extend guests' vacations with 20 pre- or post-cruise land-based adventures into the pristine Alaskan interior. Guests are escorted by knowledgeable "Adventure Specialists" as they explore historical inland frontier-towns, like Fairbanks or Talkeetna, and venture deep into the wilderness of Denali National Park. On most cruisetours, guests also take in awe-inspiring scenery aboard the cruise lines' exclusive Wilderness Express glass-domed traincars and enjoy 360 degree views as they wind through the lush landscape of Alaska.

For more information about Royal Caribbean International cruisetours or Celebrity Cruises cruisetours to some of the world's most spectacular places, please visit www.CruiseCafe.com or call us at 1-800-788-2545.
