Thundering Icefalls – Juneau, Skagway & Icy Strait

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 Vancouver on August 16, 2026 visits Icy Strait Point, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau and Ketchikan. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Glaciers, whales, snow-capped mountains. Alaska is about as far from a beach holiday as you can get. Skagway stands out. It's Gold Rush spirit in a fjord-locked town. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Celebrity Solstice has 10 dining spots on board, most of them included. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
