Itinerary

The following day, board Koningsdam for a 7-night cruise calling at:

• Juneau... after a scenic cruise through the Inside Passage, you will arrive in the capital. Be greeted by dramatic mountains and lush rainforests. Learn about Alaskan culture through local art galleries, or hit the scenic hiking trails.
• Skagway... has a rich gold rush history and small town charm. Take the White Pass and Yukon Route railroad through picturesque mountain landscapes (supplements apply). This route was used by gold miners and is a popular excursion for cruisers.
• Glacier Bay... is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its exceptional natural beauty and diverse wildlife. The national park is home to major glaciers, including Margerie Glacier and Johns Hopkins Glacier.
• Ketchikan... wander the historic boardwalk of Creek Street. Once the red-light district, it is now a popular spot for dining and shopping. Ketchikan is also home to one of the largest collections of totem poles in the world.
