Gilded Tundra – Juneau & Victoria from Seattle
About this cruise
7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Seattle on September 5, 2026 visits Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Ketchikan and Victoria and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Even the open-water days are scenic here, with mountains on either side and blue ice in the distance. Keep an eye out for Victoria: English gardens on Canada's Pacific coast. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. Royal Princess takes the food seriously, with 11 restaurants to choose from. 6 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 7 nights well spent.
