Alaskan Fjords & Glaciers – Ketchikan, Juneau & Skagway
About this cruise
The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 9 nights from Seattle on September 17, 2026, visiting Ketchikan, Sitka, Skagway, Juneau, Tracy Arm Fjord and Victoria. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 6 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. Skagway alone is worth the trip, Gold Rush spirit in a fjord-locked town. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Carnival Miracle keeps you well fed. 7 places to eat, with 5 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. If you can, add a night in Seattle before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Worth booking. That's the short version.
