    Day 1
    Seattle

    The busy waterside city at the edge of Puget Sound is a convenient and quite scenic embarkation point for this roundtrip itinerary.

    Day 2
    Inside Passage

    Passengers enjoy their ship's abundant amenities on this itinerary's singular day at sea.

    Day 3
    Juneau

    Many passengers set foot in Alaska for the first time on this popular Juneau port of call. The lively city offers a fitting welcome, with glaciers to tour, delectable fresh seafood to taste, and wildlife to see.

    Day 4
    Skagway

    The route continues overnight to Skagway, and with an early morning arrival, gives cruisers a long day in port. Thousands of prospectors flowed through Skagway during the Klondike Gold Rush of 1897. That vibrant history is woven through many available shore excursions, whether it's a guided hike on the Chilkoot Trail, or a train ride up the precipitous White Pass.

    Day 5
    Glacier Bay

    On this day of scenic cruising, the route makes a slow circuit through one of Alaska's most extraordinary places: Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. The cruise welcomes a park ranger on board for the day to provide narration and answer questions about the park's fascinating natural history.

    Day 6
    Ketchikan

    Hundred of years before Ketchikan was "officially" established, the site was a thriving native Alaskan fish camp. Wild salmon still run here today, making the town's nickname "Salmon Capital of Alaska," as accurate as ever. For those passengers who've dreamt of fishing in Alaska, this is the ideal place to do it.

    Day 7
    Victoria BC

    Docking for an evening in Victoria, British Columbia, this final port of call is enjoyed for its uniqueness on the route. The elegant city is British through and through, from its tidy gardens, to its dignified capital buildings.

    Day 8
    Seattle

    Returning to Seattle by the morning, the route concludes at the Smith Cove Cruise Terminal.
