When we did the cruise tour, we did the land AFTER the cruise. That itinerary worked great for us.

In order to do Denali, you need to do the Norwegian Sun's itinerary. These are one direction cruise embarking either from Vancouver BC and sailing north or Seward Ak and sailing south. You can start with the land tour and then board the ship or you can cruise first then do the land tour. It will depend on what you want to do first.

Just to warn you about an insane NCL policy. We booked a cruise on the NCL Sun (northbound from Vancouver 5 August 16), but cruise tours were not offered at that time. We later wanted to add a cruise tour. We couldn't do that without cancelling (and losing our perks and base pricing from the cruise) and rebooking.

 

Also, we had booked a cabin for three, with our Daughter cruising free. She wasn't able to go on the cruise tour, so even if we had rebooked, since she couldn't go, we couldn't do it.

 

The problem is that NCL does not offer the land tour separately from the cruise. Ridiculous.
