Rushing Creek – Juneau & Sitka
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 October 2, 2027 visits Sitka, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau, Icy Strait Point, 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. Don't rush through Icy Strait Point, which is known as Wilderness at the edge of the Inside Passage. Roughly 7 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. Norwegian Bliss takes the food seriously, with 18 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. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All told, 6 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
