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

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Vancouver on June 3, 2028, visiting Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay and Ketchikan. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. With about 8 hours at each port, you'll want a plan, or at least a shortlist. As for the ship itself, There are 12 restaurants on Koningsdam, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
