VALENCIA, California – Cunard, the British luxury cruise line, has expanded its partnership with the Royal Canadian Geographical Society (RCGS) to offer an enriched lineup of speakers for its 2024 season in Alaska, beginning June 21. The collaboration features an RCGS speaker on each trip, with the aim of providing guests with a deeper understanding of the region's natural and cultural heritage.
The onboard program, part of Cunard's Insights enrichment series, will include presentations from a diverse group of experts, including explorers, naturalists and indigenous advocates. Featured speakers include wilderness adventurers Brian and Dee Keating, astronaut Andrew Fuestel, and award-winning filmmaker Patricia Sims, among others. These experts will curate exclusive content for Cunard guests during voyages from June to September.
In addition to the RCGS speakers, Cunard has recruited a variety of specialists to enhance the Alaska experience. They include Alex Debogorski of “Ice Road Truckers,” record-breaking polar explorer Preet Chandi and Kenton Cool, who has reached multiple summits on Everest. Alaska Native Voices heritage guides will also provide cultural information on all trips.
