Alaska Glacier Trail – Hubbard & Juneau

About this cruise

This one leaves Whittier on September 6, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting Hubbard Glacier, Icy Strait Point, Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Vancouver at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. You wind up in Vancouver, so it's worth planning a night or two there. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Glaciers, whales, snow-capped mountains. Alaska is about as far from a beach holiday as you can get. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Norwegian Jade has 13 dining spots on board, most of them included. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
