Glacier Hearth – Skagway & Juneau from Vancouver

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Vancouver on May 24, 2026 visits Icy Strait Point, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau and Ketchikan. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. Keep an eye out for Skagway: Gold Rush spirit in a fjord-locked town. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Celebrity Solstice keeps you well fed. 10 places to eat, with 5 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. If you can, add a night in Vancouver before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And May is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. That's 7 nights well spent.
