great wildlife preserves. Observe many of the 130 species of birds, 500
wildflowers, and over 40 species of mammals that make the park their home on
your game drive. Stay at the Denali Princess Lodge and enjoy a National Park
experience. FAIRBANKS: A city tour will include a drive by the campus of
the University of Alaska, the northernmost institution of higher learning, Farmers
Loop Road, Old Fairbanks and a visit to view and touch a segment of the
Trans-Alaska pipeline are additional points of interest. Board an authentic
operating sternwheeler for a cruise on the Chena & Tanana Rivers with a stop at
"Old Chena Village" for a dog-sled demonstration. Native guides will share a
glimpse into the history and culture of the Athabascan tribe. See up close
amazing fish traps and the difference between glacial and fresh water rivers.
You’ll also pan for gold. GLACIER BAY: The major glacier in Glacier Bay
National Park is almost 2 miles wide and rises about 25 stories above the water.
HUBBARD GLACIER: Hubbard Glacier stretches 76 miles to the sea north
of Yakutat in Disenchantment Bay. It is the longest tidewater glacier in America,
with an open calving face over 6 miles wide. JUNEAU: Juneau is the only
state capitol in the U.S. you must fly or cruise to. The famous Red Dog Saloon
is located here, as are nearby Mendenhall Glacier and the Chapel by the Lake.
KETCHIKAN: Home of rainforests, fjords, glaciers and numerous waterfalls.
It is best known for its Alaskan Native culture and great salmon fishing. It has
the most totem poles of anywhere else in the world. SKAGWAY: Discover
where the "gold rush" started. Tour this beautiful city of wooden sidewalks and
false fronted buildings. Learn how “cheechakos” become “sourdoughs.”

DEPOSIT A normal deposit of $1,250 per person is required to secure
space on this tour.
EARLY RESERVATION SAVINGS DEADLINE It is impossible to
give a definite date since spaces, savings and bonuses can be withdrawn at
any time. We anticipate November 1, however, it is possible that the cruise
line will initiate an earlier date because of greater than expected demand,
along with the withdrawal of all unreserved spaces from our inventory. Of
particular importance is the fact Alaska has a very limited supply of quality
land accommodations. We are staying in the best. Because of this they
tend to “be gone” early. There often is space on ships, but no spaces on
land.
EARLY RESERVATIONS HELP YOU The earlier you reserve the
better choice you have as to stateroom location, flight times, airplane
seating, dining times, and possible additional savings. Because of our
special relationship with Princess, we will be able to obtain for you any
future specials or price reductions if they are offered. Reserve now and be
protected by our exclusive 100% RESERVATION DEPOSIT REFUND
GUARANTEE (see reverse for details).

Exclusive Benefits and Bonuses (and other useful information) - Very Important
All Inclusive Pricing
This travel experience features “all inclusive” pricing. This means you are never surprised with hidden charges. Taxes, transfers,
air flights, cruise luggage handling, port charges, and other items many other tour operators leave out of their initial pricing
information, so as to appear to be less expensive, are all included in the prices shown on the front of this brochure. Airline
charges, including any checked luggage charges, accrue to, and need to be paid by, the traveler.
Additional Bonuses and Exclusive Friendship Bonus Plan Benefits
These are additional exclusive bonuses available when you “go away” with us. Also, when you have friends or family join you
on this cruise and they have not “gone away” with Please Go Away™ Vacations before, you will also receive your choice of a 1%
cash bonus or a 2% future travel credit (based upon what they spend) as our way of saying “thank you.” There are no limits as to
numbers or amounts you can receive with this plan.

On the luxurious Coral Princess you will explore the waters of Alaska in the finest manner possible. A “small ship” feel and
personality have been preserved on this luxurious floating five-star resort, where you always awaken in a new and exciting part of
Alaska. You will experience the next generation of Personal Choice Cruising onboard one of the newest and most innovative ships
yet. She boasts 750 private balcony staterooms (worth the small extra costs if they are your choice) from which to observe and “soak in” the wonders
of nature -- from wildlife, to mountains, to ice-blue glaciers, and so much more. Just imagine enjoying a leisurely breakfast on your private balcony
while basking in pleasant temperatures, wearing your cuddly soft provided robe and observing a glacier with its river of ice meandering continuously to
the sea. If you’re lucky, you may see one “calve an iceberg.”
Experience the splendor of “all” of Alaska
Don’t be disappointed by seeing less of Alaska than you expect. Be sure you experience the splendor of “all” of Alaska! It is a substantial investment
and something you don’t want to be disappointed in when you return home. This can easily happen with other programs. Always compare and be sure
you are getting the most for your money and are seeing and doing the things that you desire. Please Go Away™ Vacations has every quality cruise
and tour of every major company to Alaska available for your selection in a season that runs from May to September. However, for our “select”
personally escorted departures we have selected the itinerary shown on the reverse of this brochure. 2015 will be our 42nd year of hosting groups to
Alaska. This experience has allowed us to determine, in our opinion, the absolute best time of year and best itinerary to allow you to see and
experience “all” of Alaska. When you “go away” with us on the itinerary shown on the front of this brochure, you will see mountains and glaciers. You
will see and touch the Alaska Pipeline, pan for gold, see real sled dogs, see both glacial and fresh water rivers, have the opportunity to see wild
animals, have the opportunity to experience North America’s tallest mountain -- Mount McKinley, and so much more.
Very Important Cancellation Provisions - Read Carefully - Understand - Ask Questions.
It is the desire of Please Go Away™ Vacations that you do not place the money you pay for your deposit and final payments at risk. This is why we

reasons” as determined by the Travel Insured International Insurance Company. These generally relate to unforeseen health and accident challenges
of the traveler, traveler’s immediate family, and traveler’s traveling companion. One cannot cancel for other than “covered reasons” and be protected
by the terms of the included travel protection insurance. Before March 24 you can simply “change your mind” and be fully protected.. After that date,
you “cannot change your mind” and be protected. Cancellation assessments for “other than covered reasons” after March 24, 2015 are: March 25,
2015 through May 24, 2015 - 50% of total charges; May 25, 2015 through conclusion of tour - 100% of total charges. In addition to these percentage
figures, there may be additional charges assessed because of airline charges and/or assessments. Additionally, Princess reserves the right to
