Sapphire Ice Floes – Skagway, Whittier & Juneau

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from June 26, 2027. This one's 14 nights from Vancouver, and the route visits Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway, with additional stops along the Alaska. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Glaciers, whales, snow-capped mountains. Alaska is about as far from a beach holiday as you can get. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Discovery Princess has 13 dining spots on board, most of them included. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. A June departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. 14 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
