Glacier Carved Fjords – Ketchikan, Juneau & Skagway

About this cruise

You board in Seattle on September 20, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Ketchikan, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau, Skagway and Vancouver, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. The trip wraps in Vancouver, so you won't retrace your steps. You do all the exploring first, then the last few days are at sea. It's like a built-in wind-down. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. Keep an eye out for Ketchikan: Totem poles, rain, and wild salmon. Port time is tight at about 8 hours each. Pick your favourites and save the rest for another trip. Star Princess launched in 2025, so everything on board is still new. You can tell. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Seattle before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 7 nights well spent.
