Gold Pan Drifter – Skagway & Victoria from Seattle

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Seattle on July 29, 2027 and visits Tracy Arm Fjord, Skagway, Juneau, Ketchikan and Victoria. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Even the open-water days are scenic here, with mountains on either side and blue ice in the distance. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. When you're not ashore, Carnival Spirit takes the food seriously, with 9 restaurants to choose from. 6 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Seattle has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You start in Seattle and come back with stories from United States and Canada.
