Glacier's Edge – Whittier & Ketchikan from Vancouver

About this cruise

You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 14 nights from Vancouver on June 27, 2026, visiting 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, whales, snow-capped mountains. Alaska is about as far from a beach holiday as you can get. People come back from this cruise talking about Hubbard Glacier: North America's largest tidewater glacier. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Grand Princess has 10 dining spots on board, most of them included. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And June means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. 6 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
