Alaskan Wilderness – Juneau & Skagway

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 10 nights from San Francisco on May 17, 2027, visiting Juneau, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord, Ketchikan and Prince Rupert. The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Carnival Luminosa has 9 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. 10 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You start in San Francisco and come back with stories from United States and Canada.
