Ocean Discovery – Juneau, Skagway & Tracy Arm/Endicott Arm

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Vancouver on May 23, 2028 and visits Juneau, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord and Ketchikan. 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 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Emerald Princess keeps you well fed. 13 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 May departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
