Day 3: Juneau, AK

Juneau has been called “Alaska's peak experience,” certainly due in part to its unparalleled glacier viewing from such places as Tracy Arm Fjord, the Juneau Icefields and Glacier Bay National Park. Kayak up one of the area's many protected waterways, go flightseeing, tour historic downtown or try your hand at panning for gold. The majestic Mendenhall Glacier lies nearly 12 miles outside Juneau, a treck worthwhile.

In a single year from 1896 to 1897, this remote town along the Inside Passage grew from a few tents to a city of 20,000 gold seekers. Today, travelers come in search of other riches – to experience yesteryear along Skagway's charming boardwalk lined with buildings that replicate those Gold Rush days.

Day 5: Glacier Bay

Sail to Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, a United Nations World Heritage Site. Comprised of 3.3 million acres of natural wonders, it is home to magnificent glaciers, snow-capped mountains and abundant birds and wildlife.

Thanks to its abundant rainfall, Ketchikan is surrounded by some of the world's most lush wilderness.

F.A.Q

What's the weather like?

Alaskan weather is extremely unpredictable. Make sure to pack for both warm and cold weather. Dressing in layers would be a smart decision, and a water resistant jacket should make its way onto your packing list.

Is a balcony necessary?

We would highly recommend booking a balcony. Because the ship stays close to land during the majority of the sailing route, you will be blessed to see the majestic landscape of Alaska up close, from the comfort of your own room. This differs from the typical Caribbean cruise where you are surrounded by ocean for most of the trip. Having a balcony in your room allows you to breathe in the fresh Alaskan air and take in the sights in a way that is just not possible from an interior stateroom.

Will I be the only one my age on this cruise?

Alaskan cruises cater to travelers of all ages, so you will see families as well as retirees and everyone in between on this cruise.
