Glacial Blue Solitude – Skagway & Juneau

About this cruise

If you've got 14 nights to work with, this sailing from Vancouver on July 30, 2028 through Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Whittier and Hubbard Glacier is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. 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. People come back from this cruise talking about Whittier: Alaska's hidden fjord portal. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Eurodam 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. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. 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. 6 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
