Ports of Call
Vancouver, British Columbia
The city’s cruise terminal, Canada Place, sits conveniently in the heart of downtown, meaning your exploration can begin the moment you step ashore or check out of your hotel. Vancouver’s core is remarkably walkable, a compact grid of distinct neighborhoods nestled between the Burrard Inlet and False Creek, all under the watchful gaze of the Coast Mountains. This is a city that invites you to slow down and absorb its unique character.
Exploring the City's Soul - Your first priority should be Stanley Park, a 1,000-acre temperate rainforest that serves as the city’s green heart. This is no manicured city park; it’s a vast expanse of old-growth forest, rugged coastline, and tranquil lakes. The best way to experience it is by walking or cycling the Seawall, a paved 5.5-mile path that traces its perimeter, offering uninterrupted views of the city skyline, the North Shore mountains, and the ocean. Don’t miss the collection of First Nations totem poles at Brockton Point, a powerful and authentic introduction to the region’s indigenous heritage.
For a completely different but equally essential Vancouver experience, take a small Aquabus ferry across False Creek to Granville Island. Once an industrial wasteland, it has been transformed into a thriving hub for food, art, and culture. The main draw is the Public Market, a sensory overload of local produce, artisanal cheeses, fresh seafood, and gourmet food stalls. It’s a place to graze, sample, and assemble an impromptu picnic. Beyond the market, the island is home to artisan workshops where you can watch glassblowers, jewelers, and potters at their craft.
History and modern style converge in Gastown, the city’s oldest neighborhood. Its cobblestone streets and Victorian architecture now house independent boutiques, First Nations art galleries, and some of Vancouver’s most innovative restaurants and cocktail bars. It’s a neighborhood best explored on foot, allowing you to discover hidden courtyards and appreciate the intricate details of the historic buildings.
A Culinary Landscape - Vancouver’s dining scene is a direct reflection of its Pacific Rim geography and multicultural population. The quality and availability of fresh, local seafood is exceptional—from wild sockeye salmon and briny oysters to sweet Dungeness crab. Beyond the local catch, the city is celebrated for having some of the best and most diverse Asian cuisine outside of Asia. You can find world-class sushi, authentic ramen, and, for those willing to take a short SkyTrain ride to the suburb of Richmond, an unparalleled dim sum experience. The city also champions a strong farm-to-table ethos and a flourishing craft beer scene, with dozens of microbreweries scattered throughout the Mount Pleasant and East Vancouver neighborhoods.
An Unhurried Two-Day Itinerary - To truly appreciate what Vancouver offers, we recommend a minimum two-day stay. This allows for a relaxed pace that matches the city’s laid-back vibe.
- Day 1: Urban & Historic Core
- Day 2: Nature, Art & Markets
This is a city that rewards the curious. By extending your stay, you transform a logistical necessity into a memorable experience, allowing the spirit of the Pacific Northwest to set the tone for, or provide a perfect conclusion to, your Alaskan adventure.
Alaska Inside Passage
This is a day for active observation. We strongly advise securing a position on deck or a private balcony well before approaching major highlights like Glacier Bay, Hubbard Glacier, or Tracy Arm Fjord. The silence here is profound, often broken only by the 'white thunder' of tidewater glaciers calving into the sea. The visual impact of the 'glacial blue'—created by dense ice absorbing red light spectrums—is startlingly vivid against the grey skies.
Wildlife viewing requires patience but offers high rewards. The nutrient-rich waters are prime feeding grounds for humpback whales; look for the telltale mist of a spout or the fluke raising before a dive. Orcas, Dall’s porpoises, and harbor seals are common sights, while bald eagles are nearly ubiquitous on passing ice floes. On the shoreline, keep a sharp eye out for coastal brown bears at low tide.
Practical preparation is key to enjoying this passage. The weather is notoriously changeable; expect rain and mist, which actually enhances the dramatic, moody atmosphere of the fjords. Dress in waterproof layers and, most importantly, bring high-quality binoculars. Relying solely on the naked eye or a camera lens means missing the intricate details of this untamed wilderness. This is a time to disconnect from shipboard distractions and immerse yourself in one of the planet's most magnificent natural corridors.
Icy Strait Point, Alaska
The primary draw here is the incredible access to wildlife. The nutrient-rich waters of Port Frederick are a summer feeding ground for humpback whales, making whale-watching tours exceptionally rewarding. For those hoping to see terrestrial giants, guided excursions search for the island's dense population of coastal brown bears in their natural habitat.
For a dose of adrenaline, the ZipRider is one of the longest in the world, offering a breathtaking flight over the rainforest canopy with spectacular views of the port. Beyond the thrills, the port provides genuine cultural immersion. You can witness traditional Tlingit storytelling and dance performances, observe master carvers at work on totem poles, and learn about the deep connection between the people and this land. The port is easily navigable, with two dock areas connected by scenic gondolas. While the nearby village of Hoonah is accessible, most visitors find the port's self-contained offerings provide a full and satisfying day.
Hubbard Glacier
The glacier itself is a spectacle of scale. At its terminus, the river of ice is over six miles wide, with a face that towers up to 400 feet above the waterline. Its most striking feature is its color—a deep, incandescent blue that seems to glow from within, a result of ancient, densely compacted ice absorbing every other color of the spectrum. The experience is auditory as much as it is visual. Listen for the sharp crack and deep groan of the ice, a sound that precedes the dramatic spectacle of calving. When a skyscraper-sized block of ice shears off and crashes into the sea, the sound, often called “white thunder,” echoes across the bay. This is a living, moving landscape; unlike most Alaskan glaciers, Hubbard is advancing, slowly pushing its way into the bay. Find a good vantage point, perhaps with a warm drink and binoculars, and simply watch. It is a profound, humbling display of geological time in action.
Juneau, Alaska
The Mendenhall Glacier is the undisputed centerpiece. While the Visitor Center offers a solid introduction, the glacier has receded significantly in recent years. To truly grasp the scale of the Juneau Icefield, we recommend a helicopter excursion. Landing on the glacier or dog sledding on the ice cap is a significant investment, but it provides a visceral connection to the landscape that a distant view from the visitor center cannot match. If you prefer to stay grounded, the hike to Nugget Falls offers a powerful view of the glacier's face and a roaring waterfall without the flight costs.
Juneau’s waters are among the most productive feeding grounds for humpback whales in the world. Sightings in Auke Bay are exceptionally reliable during the cruise season. If you have not booked a wildlife excursion elsewhere on your itinerary, this is the place to do it.
Downtown Juneau is compact and historic, though South Franklin Street can feel congested when multiple ships are in port. For a sophisticated cultural break, the Alaska State Museum is outstanding, housing world-class exhibits on Native Alaskan heritage and Russian history. The Mount Roberts Tramway, located right at the dock, offers sweeping views, but we advise purchasing tickets only after assessing the cloud cover; the view is spectacular, but non-existent in heavy fog.
For a culinary finish, skip the generic tourist traps and visit Tracy’s King Crab Shack for genuine local flavor. Juneau is a wet city—it lies in a temperate rainforest—so dress in waterproof layers to enjoy this spectacular intersection of civilization and wild frontier.
Ketchikan, Alaska
For a relaxed day, the town is highly walkable. The centerpiece is Creek Street, a historic boardwalk built on pilings over the water. Formerly the city's notorious red-light district, it is now a charming, albeit busy, collection of galleries and local shops. In late summer, looking over the rails offers a front-row seat to thousands of salmon fighting their way upstream; the nearby fish ladder provides a fascinating, close-up view of this biological struggle.
To engage with the region's history beyond the souvenir shops, we recommend the Totem Heritage Center. Located a short walk or quick taxi ride from the bustle of the port, it houses an unparalleled collection of original 19th-century totem poles retrieved from deserted villages. Unlike the brightly repainted replicas found in parks, these are preserved in their natural, weathered state, offering a somber and powerful insight into Native artistry.
While the town is engaging, the true grandeur of this stop lies in the surrounding wilderness. If logistics and budget permit, a floatplane excursion to Misty Fjords National Monument is the definitive Ketchikan experience. Soaring past sheer granite cliffs and cascading waterfalls provides a perspective on Alaska’s scale that ground tours simply cannot match. Whether you explore the boardwalks or fly into the fjords, Ketchikan delivers a dense, accessible dose of the frontier.

- A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
- Your parent or child requires hospitalization
- You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
- You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
- A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more
TRIP INTERRUPTION
Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:
- You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
- A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
- A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable
TRAVEL DELAY
If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.
EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE
Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:
- You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
- You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
- You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*
*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.
