Now, nature and animal enthusiasts alike have the special opportunity to cruise along with Corwin to Alaska to hear his inspiring stories and experience his compelling passion for wildlife, conservation and exploration firsthand.

“Jeff Corwin’s Nature & Adventure Voyage” is scheduled for Sept. 6-13, sailing northbound on Princess’ “Voyage of the Glaciers” itinerary from Vancouver, B.C to Anchorage (Whittier) aboard Sapphire Princess. Cruise fares and itinerary information for the Sept. 6 voyage can be found here, starting as low as $448 per person.

Corwin is a highly respected wildlife biologist, conservationist, animal enthusiast and recently was named Princess Cruises’ Nature & Adventure Ambassador. For nearly three decades, he has been telling stories of wildlife and nature to a global audience through his many celebrated television series, including “Ocean Treks with Jeff Corwin” on ABC, garnering multiple Emmy and top-broadcast industry awards. His “Jeff Corwin’s Alaska” video series can be viewed on Princess You Tube Channel.

“My most favorite place to explore is Alaska because it’s unmatched when it comes to adventure, animals and incredible exploration,” said Corwin. “I’m beyond excited to be hosting this special cruise so I can personally share my experiences, offer insights on watching out for bald eagles, whales and bears, and meet adventure seekers like me who love new discoveries and also share in my dedication for conservation so Alaska can be enjoyed for generations to come.”

Corwin will serve as onboard guide and host for this cruise to Alaska, sharing his own personal stories from his 150+ trips to this state that delivers a new and unique experience with every visit. Guests will have the opportunity to interact with Corwin through special events and activities, including:

— Inspirational keynote presentations in the Princess Theater, highlighting his passion for Alaska wildlife and conservation, plus his explorations around the globe.

— Unique dining experiences hosted by Corwin, featuring the cruise line’s expanded Wild for Alaska Seafood menu, an industry-first, location-based seafood initiative featuring an extensive offering of fresh Alaska seafood dishes, along with destination-inspired cocktails.

“Ocean Treks with Jeff Corwin” was broadcast on ABC for four seasons, taking viewers to worldwide destinations that Princess visits, including the Dominican Republic, Alaska, New Zealand, Iceland, Japan, French Polynesia and more. Through the success of this series, Princess debuted Ocean Treks Conservation Connections, featuring short stories of environmental management, wildlife conversation and sustainability, also hosted by Corwin.
