Ocean Discovery – Juneau, Skagway & Glacier Bay

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 July 31, 2027 visits Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay 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. Even the open-water days are scenic here, with mountains on either side and blue ice in the distance. Of the stops, Ketchikan tends to be the one people talk about: Totem poles, rain, and wild salmon. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. Koningsdam takes the food seriously, with 12 restaurants to choose from. 6 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
