Ocean Discovery – Juneau, Skagway & Glacier Bay

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Seattle on May 21, 2028 visits Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Ketchikan and Victoria. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Even the open-water days are scenic here, with mountains on either side and blue ice in the distance. Skagway alone is worth the trip, Gold Rush spirit in a fjord-locked town. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Norwegian Encore takes the food seriously, with 20 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. Worth booking. That's the short version.
