Glacial Mirage – Skagway & Juneau

About this cruise

Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 14-night sailing leaves Vancouver on July 11, 2027 and visits Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Whittier and Hubbard Glacier. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 6 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. People come back from this cruise talking about Skagway: Gold Rush spirit in a fjord-locked town. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Nieuw Amsterdam has 9 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Vancouver itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. 6 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
