Cruise lines visit Alaska between May and September.
Inside Passage cruises are characterized
by round trip departures from Seattle, Vancouver or
San Francisco which travel into Alaska’s Inside Passage
wi th port stops in Juneau, Ketchikan, Sitka, or Skagway.
Glacier displays in the mighty Glacier Bay, Hubbard
Glacier and Tracy Arm are also found in the area. Inside passage cruises can be 7 or 10 days in length
but are typically 7 days. All of the cruise lines above offer the 7-day cruise; Princess® also offers 10-day sailings.
Gulf of Alaska cruises are 7 days, traveling
southbound from Anchorage (Whittier or Seward) to Vancouver,
or northbound in the opposite direction, and include
most of the port stops along the Inside Passage, with
additional Glacier displays in the Gulf of Alaska’s College
Fjord. This itinerary is the gateway to the Heartland
of Alaska and makes Cruise-Tours possible. Celebrity, Holland America, Princess® and Royal Caribbean offer this itinerary.
Inside Passage & Gulf of Alaska:
Princess® and Holland America offer a 14-day Connoisseur’s
