Alaska Wilderness – Ketchikan & Glaciers

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Vancouver on June 26, 2026 and visits Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point, Sitka, Skagway, Hubbard Glacier and Seward. Disembarkation is in Seward. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. You get around 8 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, There are 16 restaurants on Ovation Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. A June departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You start in Vancouver and come back with stories from Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point, Sitka, Skagway, Hubbard Glacier and Seward.
