Day 2 : Anchorage to Seward
Board the Coastal Classic Train in the Goldstar Railcar for a breathtaking ride to Seward.

Travel farther into Kenai Fjords National Park than with any other cruise and visit the magnificent Northwestern Fjord, home to three amazing tidewater glaciers and numerous alpine glaciers.
Day 4 : Seward – cruising
Enjoy the morning at leisure in Seward before boarding the Seven Seas Mariner for your cruise south to Vancouver. Ship sails at 5pm.
Day 5 : Cruising the Hubbard Glacier
Experience the daunting power of the largest tidewater glacier in North America. While most glaciers tend to thin and retreat, Hubbard Glacier continues to thicken and actively advance toward the Gulf of Alaska, earning the nickname “Galloping Glacier”. Nearing the glacier’s 400-foot-tall face, you’ll get panoramic views of its gigantic expanse— Hubbard is a monstrous 76 miles long and 1,200 feet deep.
Day 6 : Sitka
Explore this Russian-influenced fishing village with a tour of the onion-domed cathedral perched atop Castle Hill.
Day 7 : Tracy Arm Fjord, Sawyer Glacier & Juneau
The Tracy Arm Fjord is book-ended by two of Alaska's most dramatic glaciers, the North and South Sawyer, and surrounded by granite walls that rise 3,000 feet from the seas. In Juneau, view the majestic Mendenhall Glacier from the East Glacier Loop Trail, or sail via gondola to Mount Roberts. Don’t miss the crab cakes.
Day 8 : Skagway
Your gateway to the rugged Klondike harks back to the 1898 gold rush. See the vast Davidson Glacier up close, or hop aboard the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway.
Day 9 : Ketchikan
Experience Eden firsthand. Kayak saltwater fjords fringed by forests, keeping an eye out for black bears and porpoises. Tour the great outdoors by foot, bike or zipline.
Day 10 : Cruise the Inside Passage
The dramatic scenery of the Inside Passage has been shaped by glaciers for millions of years. The terrain here is verdant and vivid – mysterious forests blanket the towering mountains.
Day 11 : Vancouver
Disembark after breakfast and make your own way to the airport, or perhaps extend your stay in Vancouver.
