Known as a cosmopolitan cultural melting pot with a love of the great outdoors, Vancouver is worth a few nights' stay prior to the cruise's evening departure.
On this full day at sea, passengers are treated to their first views of the Alaskan coastline as they become acquainted with the cruise's onboard restaurants, entertainment offerings, and services.
Icy Strait makes for a unique first port call of the itinerary. It's quieter than most, a restored 1912 cannery located near southeast Alaska's largest native community of Hoonah. Explore the pristine area by zodiac or guided hike or, for the foodies, learn more about local cuisine on an Alaskan culinary tasting tour. Sitka serves as an enjoyable alternative port of call on some voyages.
The route returns to the open water as it passes through the Gulf of Alaska and into Yakutat Bay. At the bay's end lies the huge Hubbard Glacier, which, at more than six miles long at its face, is North America's largest tidewater glacier.
Juneau hosts world-class local seafood restaurants, as well as Alaska's largest brewery, the Alaskan Brewing Company. The good eats and drinks complement a full day of glacier viewing, whale watching, dog sledding, or helicopter flightseeing.
Ketchikan's location, along the border of the great Tongass National Forest, makes it the perfect port call to discover the region's temperate rainforest. Guided hiking trips delve deep into this unique and beautiful ecosystem.
After the past two busy shore days, the route's final day at sea gives passengers the welcome opportunity to relax on board, preferably wherever there's a good view of the passing Inside Passage scenery.
The route concludes at the Canada Place Cruise Terminal in downtown Vancouver.
