Epic Alaskan – Ketchikan & Juneau
About this cruise
You board in Vancouver on August 28, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Ketchikan, Sitka, Juneau, Icy Strait Point, Hubbard Glacier and Seward, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. You get off in Seward, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. Don't rush through Ketchikan, which is known as Totem poles, rain, and wild salmon. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Celebrity Summit keeps you well fed. 9 places to eat, with 5 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. If you can, add a night in Vancouver before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All told, 6 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
