Whale Song Drift – Alaska from Seattle

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 May 28, 2027 visits Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway 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 Victoria, which is known as English gardens on Canada's Pacific coast. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Celebrity Edge takes the food seriously, with 14 restaurants to choose from. 7 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All told, 4 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
