Northern Frontier Quest – Hubbard & Juneau

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Seward on August 28, 2026 visits Hubbard Glacier, Juneau, Skagway, Icy Strait Point and Vancouver and doesn't try to cram in too much. 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 Icy Strait Point: Wilderness at the edge of the Inside Passage. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Ovation Of The Seas keeps you well fed. 16 places to eat, with 6 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Seward before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. That's 7 nights well spent.
