PORTS OF CALL
Vancouver, British Columbia
Vancouver is one of the few world cities where a major metropolis feels seamlessly integrated with the wilderness. The cruise terminal at Canada Place puts you directly in the heart of this stunning landscape, with soaring mountains and the Pacific Ocean framing a vibrant, walkable downtown. This prime location means many of the city's best experiences are immediately accessible, allowing for a rich and varied day ashore.
A short walk or bike ride along the waterfront leads to Stanley Park, a 1,000-acre temperate rainforest that is the city's soul. Its famous seawall offers breathtaking views of the harbor and North Shore mountains, while inland trails lead through towering cedars and firs. Don't miss the collection of First Nations totem poles at Brockton Point, a powerful and accessible cultural landmark.
For a dose of history and modern style, explore Gastown, the city's oldest neighborhood. Its Victorian architecture, cobblestone streets, and iconic steam clock now house independent boutiques, Indigenous art galleries, and some of Vancouver's most innovative restaurants and cocktail bars.
A quick, scenic ride on a False Creek Ferry or Aquabus takes you to Granville Island. While popular, its Public Market is an authentic sensory delight, bustling with local artisans, bakers, and fishmongers. It’s the perfect place to sample local smoked salmon, grab a coffee, and watch the city's maritime life unfold. For those with an interest in art, the Vancouver Art Gallery, housed in a former courthouse, features a significant collection of works by British Columbian artists, including the renowned Emily Carr.
Vancouver's culinary scene is a destination in itself, celebrated for its exceptional Pacific Northwest seafood and diverse Asian influences, from world-class sushi to authentic dim sum in historic Chinatown. It’s a city that rewards exploration on foot, offering a sophisticated yet refreshingly unpretentious urban experience.
At Sea - Cruising
Juneau, Alaska
Juneau is a quintessential Alaskan port, a capital city uniquely isolated by wilderness and accessible only by air or sea. This isolation is its charm, creating a place where dramatic nature is always the main event. The undisputed star is the Mendenhall Glacier, a magnificent river of ice just a short drive from the docks. The visitor center provides spectacular views, but for a truly memorable experience, we recommend a helicopter tour that lands you directly on the glacier itself—an investment, but one that pays dividends in awe.
Beyond the glacier, Juneau is one of Alaska’s premier whale-watching destinations. The nutrient-rich waters of the Inside Passage are a summer feeding ground for humpback whales, and sightings are exceptionally common. For a different perspective, the Mount Roberts Tramway, which departs right from the cruise ship dock, whisks you 1,800 feet up for panoramic views of the Gastineau Channel and the surrounding Tongass National Forest.
The downtown area is compact, historic, and easily explored on foot. While it can be bustling with fellow cruisers, it’s worth a stroll down South Franklin Street to see the preserved architecture. For a dose of culture, the Alaska State Museum offers a superb collection of Native Alaskan and pioneer history. While the famous Red Dog Saloon is a lively and historic stop, for a more authentic taste of Juneau, seek out a local salmon bake. Juneau delivers exactly what you hope for in Alaska: breathtaking scenery and wildlife encounters that feel both grand and accessible.
Icy Strait Point, Alaska
Icy Strait Point offers a distinctly Alaskan experience, different from any other port. It is not a historic town but a private destination owned and operated by the Huna Totem Corporation, ensuring that your visit directly supports the local Tlingit community. The port is centered around a meticulously restored 1912 salmon cannery, which now serves as a vibrant hub with museums, local artisan shops, and restaurants. The entire experience is thoughtfully designed to blend with the stunning natural landscape of Chichagof Island.
The primary draw here is the incredible access to wildlife. The nutrient-rich waters of Port Frederick are a summer feeding ground for humpback whales, making whale-watching tours exceptionally rewarding. For those hoping to see terrestrial giants, guided excursions search for the island's dense population of coastal brown bears in their natural habitat.
For a dose of adrenaline, the ZipRider is one of the longest in the world, offering a breathtaking flight over the rainforest canopy with spectacular views of the port. Beyond the thrills, the port provides genuine cultural immersion. You can witness traditional Tlingit storytelling and dance performances, observe master carvers at work on totem poles, and learn about the deep connection between the people and this land. The port is easily navigable, with two dock areas connected by scenic gondolas. While the nearby village of Hoonah is accessible, most visitors find the port's self-contained offerings provide a full and satisfying day.
Sitka, Alaska
Sitka offers a compelling depth that sets it apart from many Alaskan ports. It’s a genuine crossroads of Tlingit, Russian, and American history, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the dormant volcano, Mount Edgecumbe. While the main cruise dock is a few miles out, frequent shuttles make accessing the compact, walkable downtown effortless. Once there, you’ll find St. Michael’s Cathedral, an onion-domed landmark that speaks to Sitka’s past as the capital of Russian America.
The true cultural heart, however, is a short walk away at Sitka National Historical Park. We highly recommend the scenic trail that winds through a temperate rainforest, lined with magnificent Tlingit and Haida totem poles that tell stories of clans and legends. For wildlife, Sitka delivers in an unusually accessible and meaningful way. The Alaska Raptor Center, a rehabilitation facility for eagles, owls, and other birds of prey, offers incredible up-close encounters. Equally impressive is the Fortress of the Bear, a sanctuary providing a safe, naturalistic home for rescued brown bears. Both are a short ride from town and are well worth the trip. Out on the water, the Sitka Sound is famously dotted with charming sea otters, often seen floating on their backs. Sitka isn't about manufactured tourist attractions; it's a port that rewards the curious traveler with authentic encounters—with history, with wildlife, and with a profound sense of place that feels uniquely Alaskan.
Skagway, Alaska
Skagway is less a town and more a time capsule, meticulously preserved from the fever dream of the Klondike Gold Rush. As you step off the ship, you’re immediately immersed in its history. The main event is the historic downtown, a district of wooden boardwalks and false-front buildings so authentic it’s part of a National Historical Park. While compact and easily walkable, its charm is genuine. You can spend an hour or two exploring Broadway Street, popping into the Red Onion Saloon for a dose of colorful history, or visiting the Corrington Museum of Alaskan History.
However, to truly appreciate Skagway, you must see it as a gateway. The town itself is the prologue; the main story unfolds in the surrounding wilderness. The undisputed star attraction is the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad. This is not a simple scenic ride; it’s a vintage, narrow-gauge train that climbs nearly 3,000 feet in 20 miles, clinging to mountainsides and crossing dizzying trestles. The engineering is as breathtaking as the views of glaciers, gorges, and waterfalls. We consider this one of Alaska’s essential experiences.
For those seeking more active pursuits, Skagway delivers. Helicopter tours can land you on a glacier for a dog-sledding adventure, offering a perspective few ever witness. You can also hike a portion of the legendary Chilkoot Trail or take a high-speed catamaran down the Lynn Canal, North America's longest and deepest fjord. Our advice: Plan on one major excursion. Skagway’s in-town appeal is real but finite; its true value lies in the spectacular adventures that begin at its doorstep.
Hubbard Glacier
Hubbard Glacier is not a port of call in the traditional sense; it is a destination for pure observation, a slow-motion encounter with one of nature’s most powerful forces. There are no towns, no tours, and no tenders to shore. The entire experience unfolds from the deck of your ship as it navigates the ice-strewn waters of Disenchantment Bay.
The glacier itself is a spectacle of scale. At its terminus, the river of ice is over six miles wide, with a face that towers up to 400 feet above the waterline. Its most striking feature is its color—a deep, incandescent blue that seems to glow from within, a result of ancient, densely compacted ice absorbing every other color of the spectrum. The experience is auditory as much as it is visual. Listen for the sharp crack and deep groan of the ice, a sound that precedes the dramatic spectacle of calving. When a skyscraper-sized block of ice shears off and crashes into the sea, the sound, often called “white thunder,” echoes across the bay. This is a living, moving landscape; unlike most Alaskan glaciers, Hubbard is advancing, slowly pushing its way into the bay. Find a good vantage point, perhaps with a warm drink and binoculars, and simply watch. It is a profound, humbling display of geological time in action.
Seward (Anchorage), Alaska
Nestled at the head of magnificent Resurrection Bay, Seward is far more than a historic railroad terminus; it is the premier gateway to the raw, dynamic world of Kenai Fjords National Park. For a truly profound encounter with Alaska’s glacial heart, embark on a day cruise into the park’s protected waters. Here, you’ll navigate past rugged coastlines teeming with life—Steller sea lions, puffins, and sea otters—as you search for the telltale spout of a humpback or orca whale. The journey culminates at the face of a tidewater glacier, such as Aialik or Holgate, where you can witness the thunderous spectacle of ice calving directly into the sea, a powerful display of nature’s artistry.
For those who prefer a land-based adventure, a short trip to Exit Glacier offers an equally compelling experience. Well-maintained trails lead to viewpoints where you can feel the cool air radiating off the ice and appreciate the glacier's immense scale. Back in town, the Alaska SeaLife Center provides a fascinating window into the sub-Arctic marine ecosystem. As a leading research and rehabilitation facility, it offers an engaging, science-forward perspective on the region's inhabitants that will resonate with your professional curiosity. Conclude your day with a stroll through Seward’s charming downtown, admiring the vibrant murals that chronicle its history, and savoring fresh-caught salmon at a local eatery overlooking the bustling small-boat harbor. Seward delivers a perfect blend of monumental wilderness and authentic Alaskan coastal culture.

The 26 Glacier Cruise departs from Whittier and travels through the pristine passageways and fjords found in Alaska's Prince William Sound. Upon leaving Whittier, the vessel heads east out Passage Canal and north up Port Wells on the way to College Fjord. Along the way, enjoy a delicious hot lunch served at your table. College Fjord offers a panoramic view of the glaciers named during the Harriman Expedition after the Ivy League Colleges on the East Coast. On the way to Harvard Glacier, the Captain will plot a path through the ice-filled waters up to the front of the glacier to get an up close view while watching for massive chunks of ice calve into the sea.
From College Fjord we continue to a very scenic area called Esther Passage where only small ships can navigate this hidden waterway. High mountains protect this narrow channel from rough seas and winds. Many different animals call this area home; bald eagles are commonly seen fishing in the area along with occasional black bear sightings. It is not uncommon to see orca whales, humpback whales, sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters and a variety of birds in this narrow passage.
Leaving Esther Passage, we head toward Egg Rocks or Perry Island in search of migratory Steller sea lions on the way to Blackstone Bay for more glacier viewing and Yosemite-scale waterways. On the return trip to Whittier, the vessel will stop one more time at a kittiwake bird rookery that is located just across the bay from Whittier. Over 10,000 birds inhabit these rocky cliffs each summer laying eggs. They fish constantly in front of the rookery and then train the young hatchlings all the survival tips they will need before returning to fly south for the winter. The rookery is our last stop before returning to Whittier.
