Ocean Discovery – Ketchikan, Juneau & Skagway

About this cruise

A 14-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Vancouver on July 22, 2028 and visits Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Whittier and Hubbard Glacier. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. People come back from this cruise talking about Glacier Bay: Where ice sculpts the silence. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Crown Princess keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Vancouver before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. 6 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
