Itinerary may vary by sailing date
Vancouver
Dramatic mountains and soaring skyscrapers kiss the sea in this booming British Columbian metropolis. Known as the “Hollywood of the North,” Vancouver is stunningly beautiful and richly diverse – highlighted by dense forests, verdant parks, intimate coffeehouses and seaside markets.
Ketchikan
Located in the Tongass National Forest and close to Misty Fjords National Monument, Ketchikan is the “Salmon Capital of the World” and Alaska’s 1st City. The town’s colourful past is evident in the Indian villages and totem poles that grace its land.
Juneau
Alaska’s capital city features luring scenery that often seems surreal. Tracy Arm Fjord, Mendenhall Glacier, the Juneau Icefield and Glacier Bay National Park offer unparalleled glacier viewing, and The Tongass Rainforest climate boasts lush terrain and captivating wildlife.
Skagway
The Spirit of the Klondike Gold Rush echoes throughout this historic town. Turn of the century shops and saloons are intermingled with false-fronted buildings and boardwalks, and the deep waters of Taiya Inlet and the rugged Coast Mountains enchantingly frame the entire town.
Cruising Glacier Bay
Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve contains some of the world's most impressive tidewater glaciers. For centuries, it laid buried beneath a mile-thick ice sheet. This ice has retreated over the last two centuries, exhuming a raw, misty realm of steep-sided fjords.
Cruising College Fjord
College Fjord, which branches off of Prince William Sound, plunges into the heart of the Chugach Mountains. As the name suggests, the glaciers along the fjord are generally named after East Coast Ivy League colleges. Glaciers on the northwest side of College Fjord are generally named after 19th century "women's colleges."
Seward
Situated at the head of Resurrection Bay on the Kenai Peninsula, Seward is one of Alaska’s oldest and most scenic communities. Known as the "Gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park," it is a picturesque town located 126 miles south of Anchorage.
