Ocean Discovery – Juneau, Skagway & Glacier Bay

About this cruise

7 nights, 5 ports, all from Seattle on July 30, 2028. The route visits Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Ketchikan and Victoria and the whole thing just flows. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. You get around 8 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Norwegian Encore keeps you well fed. 20 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
