12 Night Cruise from Seattle

About this cruise

If you've got 12 nights to work with, this sailing from Seattle on August 12, 2027 through Ketchikan, Sitka and Hubbard Glacier, with additional stops along the Alaska is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Even the open-water days are scenic here, with mountains on either side and blue ice in the distance. Keep an eye out for Skagway: Gold Rush spirit in a fjord-locked town. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Brilliant Lady is part of the Virgin Voyages fleet. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. That's 12 nights well spent.
