Bringing Together the Best of Alaska
Alaska’s visitor industry continues to grow with travelers’ interest
in Alaska’s wilderness, wildlife, and Alaska Native culture. More
people are interested in traveling independently, creating their own
experiences and itineraries.
CIRI Alaska Tourism Corporation (CATC) offers tours to fit a variety
of lifestyles and budgets. CIRI owns a package tour and booking
company, three lodges, and three wildlife viewing boat cruise
companies.

CIRI Alaska Tourism is proving that green isn't just a good philosophy, it's good business.
From a fleet modernization initiative with fuel-saving catamaran
hulls to our Kenai Fjords Wilderness Lodge, which runs primarily on
solar power, to offering carbon offset credits through the Denali Green
Tags program, environmentally-responsible choices inform the way we do
business.
We're proud that the Alaska Journal of Commerce ranks CATC among the Top 10 Best Places to Work in Alaska for 2008. Read the article here.
