Itinerary

 Whittier

Whittier is nestled at the base of mountains that line Passage Canal. a fjord that extends into Prince William Sound. The surrounding peaks are snowcapped much of the year and a glacier hangs above the town to the west. Just across from Passage Canal from Whittier is Kittiwake Rookery, largest of its kind in the world. Whittier is also a berry picker's paradise with blueberries and salmonberries growing in abundance at the edge of town.

 Prince William Sound

Millions of years of glaciation created Prince William Sound, a deep coastal waterway consisting of tributaries, fjords, passageways, islands and rocky shores. The 3,000 mile coastline has all the ingredients for creating unforgettable Alaskan memories.

 College Fjord

At College Fjord, an inlet rimmed by icy crags, you sail past glacier after ghostly glacier. The first serious explorers here were financed by a group of Ivy League colleges, hence the name.

 Sitka

Sitka, the site of Russia's initial foray into Alaska, has perhaps the richest history of any Alaskan town. Explore the melding of Russian and Native American cultures, while enjoying the unspoiled landscape at the gateway to remote Southeast Alaska. Both the local residents and abundant wildlife add to Sitka's authentic feel.

 Juneau

Juneau, the capital of Alaska, was founded during a gold rush in 1880. Today, the former gold-mining town counts among its riches some of Alaska's most spectacular scenery. Nestled at the foot of Mt. Juneau in the Alaska Panhandle, it faces the water from the mainland side of Gastineau Channel. Several magnificent fjords are located along the channel coast, and the majestic Mendenhall Glacier, a favorite of visitors, is nearby.

 Lynn Canal

Lynn Canal lets you view glaciers clinging to mountains as you cruise by. Lynn Canal is also home to many species of wildlife, so don't be surprised if a playful sea lion or humpback whale decides to escort your ship on to your next port of call.

 Skagway

When gold was discovered in the Klondike region of the Yukon Territory (just across the border from Alaska), it resulted in the historic Gold Rush of 1898. As thousands of gold-crazed adventurers sought the best starting point for their arduous trek, they found the deepest penetration possible by boat was at the northern tip of the Lynn Canal. This is how Skagway was born.

 Ketchikan

Ketchikan originated as an Indian fish saltery, but the town's major growth began when it became a supply base and entry port for miners during the 1898 Gold Rush to the Klondike. Much of the town's colorful past is still in evidence, especially in the nearby Indian villages, where you'll see colorfully carved totem poles and hear the fascinating legends that surround them.

 Inside Passage

Enjoy such stunning sights as green islands, sparkling glaciers, and a coastline that features the most majestic of mountains as you cruise the Inside Passage.

 Vancouver

Most of Canada's imports from and exports to the Orient and Australia pass through Vancouver, Canada's gateway to the Pacific. From the harbor entrance, you can see the Lion's Gate, made up of twin mountain peaks closely resembling crouching lions. Visitors enjoy discovering this cosmopolitan city, from the shops of Robson Street to historic Gastown.
