Itinerary

   Vancouver, Canada

   Vancouver is a coastal city in western Canada, its skyline set against a backdrop of mountains, forests and the Pacific Ocean.

2. 2

   At Sea

3. 3

   Ketchikan, Alaska

   Ketchikan clings to the shores of Tongass Narrows, its buildings built out over the water and climbing weathered stairways up the mountainside.

4. 4

   Juneau, Alaska

   Juneau, the capital of Alaska, sits on the Gastineau Channel at the foot of steep mountain peaks, accessible only by air or sea.

5. 5

   Skagway, Alaska

   Skagway grew rapidly during the Klondike Gold Rush, serving as the main gateway for prospectors heading into the Yukon goldfields.

   Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

   Glacier Bay National Park stretches across a vast wilderness, home to a tidewater glacier system reaching more than 76 miles in length.

   College Fjord holds the world's largest collection of tidewater glaciers, framed by snow-capped mountains rising steeply from the water.

   Anchorage (Whittier), Alaska

   Anchorage is reached by a scenic rail journey along Turnagain Arm, linking the port of Whittier with Alaska's largest city.

9. 9

   Hubbard Glacier, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

   Hubbard Glacier is one of the largest tidewater glaciers in North America, its 1,350 square miles of translucent blue ice offering dramatic views from the water.

10. 10

    Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

    Recognised as both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a Biosphere Reserve, the park protects a rare ecosystem where plants and animals live alongside an ever-changing glacial landscape.

11. 11

    Skagway, Alaska

    Much of the town's character still recalls its gold rush past, with historic buildings and false-fronted shops lining its main street.

12. 12

    Juneau, Alaska

    Behind the town lie the vast Juneau Icefields, from which the Mendenhall Glacier descends almost to the edge of the city.

13. 13

    Ketchikan, Alaska

    Creek Street's colourful shops and historic buildings recall the town's boomtown past, set along a boardwalk above the water.

14. 14

15. 15

    Vancouver, Canada

    The city's neighbourhoods have earned a reputation for world-class, farm-to-table dining that reflects the region's fresh coastal produce.

    Cruise departing 27 May 2026 & 2027 dates

    Gastown, Vancouver's historic Victorian quarter, retains cobblestone streets and heritage architecture from the city's early days.

17. 2

    At Sea

18. 3

    Ketchikan, Alaska

    Known as the Salmon Capital of the World, Ketchikan carries a rich Native American heritage evident throughout the port.

19. 4

    Juneau, Alaska

    Long summer daylight hours give visitors extended time to wander Juneau's compact downtown and waterfront district.

20. 5

    Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

    Wildlife thrives here, with seals, sea lions and numerous seabird species making the park a rewarding sight for nature enthusiasts.

    A small Alaskan port near Glacier Bay National Park, home to the state's only remaining restored salmon cannery and rich Tlingit culture.

22. 7

    College Fjord, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

    Evening cruising through College Fjord reveals a quiet, almost otherworldly landscape of ice and rock lit by changing light.

23. 8

    Anchorage (Whittier), Alaska

    Sitting at the head of Cook Inlet and framed by mountains, Anchorage serves as the main hub for road, rail and air travel into Alaska's interior.

24. 9

    Hubbard Glacier, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

    Surrounded by more than three million acres of wilderness, the area supports abundant birds and wildlife as ships sail into the narrow inlet leading to the glacier's face.

25. 10

    Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

    Waking to views of Glacier Bay's ice-carved mountains and still waters ranks among the most inspiring sights of any Alaskan voyage.

26. 11

    Skagway, Alaska

    Set among steep mountains at the head of the Taiya Inlet, Skagway remains a small, walkable port with a strong frontier atmosphere.

27. 12

    Surrounded by rainforest and glaciers, Juneau remains one of the few U.S. state capitals with no road connection to the rest of the country.

28. 13

    Ketchikan, Alaska

    Nearby, the dramatic scenery of Misty Fjord and the surrounding waters offer chances to spot humpback whales breaching close to shore.

    Vancouver, Canada

    Stanley Park offers sweeping views back toward the city skyline alongside a landscape of towering trees and coastal shoreline.
