Unless you travel by air or sea, reaching Juneau is not a straightforward journey. However, upon arrival, you'll discover grand vistas and rich cultural hues in every corner. Snow-capped mountains, mist-shrouded temperate rainforests, massive glaciers, and diverse wildlife make this remote Alaskan capital an ideal gateway to nature. The picturesque city is framed by Mount Juneau and Mount Roberts, featuring a downtown area with centuries-old bars, boutique shops, and historic landmarks. Explore the historic districts and the Alaska State Museum to savor the local culture. For those seeking outdoor thrills, options include whale watching from Auke Bay Harbor, trekking on the moss-covered expanse of Mendenhall Glacier, or even trying your hand at gold panning in the Last Chance Basin.

《Cruising Adventure》
Embark on a chartered cruise through the frigid waters of Alaska, where you can try to spot humpback whales, orcas, seals, and Steller sea lions.

《Chasing Gold》
 Join us in retracing the footsteps of hunters during the gold rush in Juneau over a hundred years ago as they pursued the elusive gold.

《Local Cuisine》

From cafes to neighborhood bars, Juneau's culinary scene is primarily centered around seafood, burgers, and sandwiches. If you're looking for a refreshing drink, be sure to try the locals' favorites – Alaskan Amber or Smoked Porter, crafted by the Alaskan Brewing Company.

《Shopping》

For avid shoppers, a visit to downtown Juneau is a must. There, you'll find numerous shops and boutiques offering local artwork, locally crafted goods, and a variety of designer brands.

Skagway was the gateway to the gold fields for the thousands who flocked to Alaska and the Yukon with the hope of striking it rich. Skagway may have boasted the shortest route to the Klondike, but it wasn't the easiest.

Over 100 years ago, the White Pass route through the Coast Mountains and the shorter but steeper Chilkoot Trail were used by countless stampeders. Many a would-be miner perished on the treacherous Chilkoot Trail.

The gold rush was a boon and by 1898, Skagway was Alaska's largest town with a population of about 20,000. Hotels, saloons, dance halls and gambling houses prospered. But when the gold yield dwindled in 1900, so did the population as miners quickly shifted to new finds in Nome.

Today, Skagway has less than 1,000 residents. It still retains the flavor of the gold rush era.

Glacier Bay National Park (Scenic Cruising), Alaska

Princess is one of a select few cruise lines permitted to cruise the pristine waters of Glacier Bay, the highlight of our 7-day Voyage of the Glaciers cruise. Just west of Juneau, this breathtaking national park and preserve boasts some of the world's most spectacular tidewater glaciers, such as Margerie Glacier, which often drops colossal chunks of ice into the sea. Not surprisingly, Glacier Bay National Park and its epic ice giants are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising Alaska's magnificent park system.

During your scenic cruise, friendly Park Rangers will join the ship to share their knowledge of this amazing place and host a fun Junior Ranger program for kids. They may even be able to help you identify Glacier Bay's abundant wildlife, including humpback whales, sea otters, porpoises, harbor seals, black bears, mountain goats, bald eagles and large colonies of seabirds.

Take in the awe-inspiring scenery as you enjoy an unforgettable day of sailing through this dazzling park, where you'll glide along emerald waters and past calving icebergs, and can breathe in the crisp, fresh air to your heart's content.

Ketchikan, Alaska

Ketchikan is known as Alaska's "First City" because it's the first major community travelers come to as they journey north. Located on an island, Ketchikan began life as an Indian fishing camp. The name Ketchikan comes from a Tlingit phrase that means "eagle with spread-out wings," a reference to a waterfall near town.

In the early 1900s, when gold was Alaska's claim to fame, fishing and timber industries were established in Ketchikan. The growth of these industries helped make this Inside Passage port Alaska's fourth-largest city.

Visitors to Ketchikan will be intrigued by its rich Native heritage, which includes the world's oldest collection of totem poles at Totem Heritage Center. The Haida, Tlingit and Tsimshian are all a part of the city's colorful history. Ketchikan, with its abundance of salmon, is also a sportfishing paradise. Sightseers will be impressed with both the scenic town and its surroundings, especially Misty Fjords National Monument.
