Alaska Glacier Trail – Hubbard & Juneau

About this cruise

By August 31, 2026 you'll be ready for this. 7 nights out of Whittier, visiting Hubbard Glacier, Icy Strait Point, Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Vancouver, and nothing on the agenda except showing up. You get off in Vancouver, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. You're essentially sailing through a nature documentary. Pack layers. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on Norwegian Jade. 5 restaurants come with the fare, plus 8 more when you feel like treating yourself. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
