Alaskan Wilderness – Juneau & Glacier Bay

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Seattle on June 28, 2026 and visits Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Ketchikan and Victoria. 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 20 restaurants on Norwegian Encore, 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. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 7-night sailing is a strong place to start.
