Gilded Tundra – Ketchikan & Juneau

About this cruise

This one leaves Vancouver on August 21, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay and Whittier at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. You wind up in Whittier, so it's worth planning a night or two there. 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. You're essentially sailing through a nature documentary. Pack layers. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on Discovery Princess. 5 restaurants come with the fare, plus 8 more when you feel like treating yourself. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
