Alaska Glacier Trail – Hubbard & Juneau

About this cruise

7 nights, 6 ports, all from Vancouver on July 19, 2027. The route visits Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Icy Strait Point, Hubbard Glacier and Whittier and the whole thing just flows. The trip wraps in Whittier, so you won't retrace your steps. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. You get around 12 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Norwegian Jade keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 5 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
