Ship Overview
The Kruzof Explorer, a Bering Sea crab fishing boat turned premier expedition vessel, was constructed to be among the toughest hulls on the planet, capable of exploring remote areas and bodies of water where few venture. The unparalleled seaworthiness and performance, coupled with modern renovations and elegant furnishings results in a craft that stands alone in its expedition capabilities. The vessel carries a sport fishing vessel, high-speed Zodiac, kayaks, and paddleboards. The vessel’s five-ton crane, which once hauled king crab pots, easily handles loading and unloading of these expedition craft.

Dining

Meals feature a variety of menu options, including meat, seafood, and vegetarian selections. Of course, we take pride in presenting a “Taste of the Inside Passage” through our strong emphasis on fresh Alaska cuisine.
From the company’s beginnings, we’ve worked with local seafood processors to secure the freshest catch available. Much of the seafood you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy will have been caught just days prior by local fishing vessels. The catch is immediately chilled and delivered to buyers, preserving its superior flavor and texture. Such locally harvested specialties include king salmon, halibut, rockfish, shrimp, and crab-cooked and prepared to a standard any Alaskan would recommend.
Alaskan Dream Cruises delights guests throughout each voyage with baked goods-fresh from the oven. Awake to the aroma of pastries and enjoy a basket of warm bread with your meals. Desserts are offered following dinner, as well as lunch! Don’t forget to visit the lounge every afternoon for our daily “cookie time.”
Our full-service bars are staffed by friendly bartenders who are ready to serve you according to your unique beverage preferences. Bars are stocked with Alaska beers, Pacific Northwest wines, and locally-distilled spirits. Due to the intimate setting of an Alaskan Dream Cruises voyage, it won’t take long before your bartender knows your name and favorite beverage.
