Wild Alaska – Ketchikan & Glaciers

About this cruise

7 nights, 6 ports, all from Vancouver on May 28, 2027. The route visits Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point, Sitka, Skagway, Hubbard Glacier and Seward and the whole thing just flows. Last stop: Seward. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. You get around 8 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Anthem of the Seas keeps you well fed. 15 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A May departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
