Alaska Glacier Quest – Ketchikan & Juneau
About this cruise
A 14-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Vancouver on June 19, 2027 and visits Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Whittier and Hubbard Glacier. 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. Don't rush through Juneau, which is known as A capital only reachable by sea or sky. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Crown Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All told, 6 ports across 14 nights covers a lot.
