Calving Blue Walls – Skagway & Icy Strait

About this cruise

The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 14 nights from Vancouver on May 29, 2027, visiting Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway, with additional stops along the Alaska. 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 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 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Discovery Princess has 13 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. 14 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. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 14-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
