Gold Rush Passage – Skagway & Juneau

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Vancouver on July 6, 2026 visits Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. Juneau stands out. It's A capital only reachable by sea or sky. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Disney Wonder carries 1,754 guests across 11 decks, with the usual resort-style amenities. 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 July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All in all, it's a solid trip.
