Discover Alaska’s true treasures along its magnificent marine highway, the Inside Passage. Navigate 1,000 miles of pristine coastline, with unforgettable stops that capture the region’s rich history, fascinating wildlife, and timeless traditions. Observe coastal Indians carve totem poles in the gateway city of Ketchikan. Explore Sitka’s Russian roots. Visit Petersburg, "Alaska’s Little Norway" and quaint Wrangell, and recapture the pioneer era in the capital city of Juneau. Drive to America’s most accessible glacier—the Mendenhall, and fly over the frozen wilderness of the Juneau Icefield. From Glacier Bay National Park to the historic gold rush town of Skagway, this award-winning program is a mesmerizing portrait of this special place in the vastness of Alaska.

Video of tour groups
I'm frankly astounded by the good ratings on this DVD. The entire DVD is a combination of stock footage with tour group camcorder videos. You get to see some nice wilderness shots, but mostly you see tour groups and more tour groups. Its only redeeming quality is the historical tidbits it offers throughout the video.

Great dvd on Alaska
If you are planning a cruise to Alaska, this dvd helps you see what is there, and helps you plan excursions during your cruise. Alaska is a beautiful state, and that is an understatement.

Some good infromation here
This is one of two DVDs on Alaska I purchased prior to our upcoming Alaska cruise. It has some interesting information and some decent photography. Production and content are OK, but not as nice as the other DVD I purchased at the same time. Is it worth buying? yes.

Alaska dvd
This video contained useful information for our upcoming cruise to Alaska. Scenery is beautiful. Video quality could be a bit better.

Beautiful photography
I got two different Alaska DVDs from the library for my elderly in-laws to watch. They have always wanted to go but probably will not make it there because of their health. We watched Alaska's Inside Passage and Discovering Alaska. This one has beautiful photography, and is well narrated. The colors and views were breathtaking. However I agree it was somewhat hard to stay awake for because it was a little repetitious. Also, I hadn't realized before what the "Inside Passage" is, so I was disappointed there was no information on the rest of Alaska. It's well worth watching, as long as you realize it is only about that one geographical area. (Fortunately the other DVD talked more about the whole state, however that one was very dated and the photography was disappointing.)
