Tracy Arm Fjord, Alaska (Scenic Cruising)

Located 50 miles southeast of Juneau, this spectacular glacier-carved fjord has sheer vertical walls that clearly showcase nature's artistry. Linger in this magical place to watch blocks of ice calving off the glaciers towering faces.

***Sawyer Glaciers***

Alaska's glaciers are constantly crumbling and yet their powerful effect is never diminished. Witness the white thunder as the Sawyer Glaciers release into the waters of Tracy Arm Fjord.

***Granite Canyons***

Ice calving off the glacier's faces have created this fjord's steep granite canyons.

***Glistening Waterfalls***

The perfect vantage point to take in the beauty of these dazzling waterfalls is onboard our ships.

Juneau, Alaska

Perched on a thin strip of land at the mouth of Gold Creek, Juneau is arguably one of America's most beautiful state capitals, with the looming summits of Mt. Juneau and Mt. Roberts providing a gorgeous backdrop.

***Admiralty Island***

Scenic Admiralty Island has the world's highest concentration of brown bears. If you are lucky enough to see one, it is a memory of a lifetime.

***Mendenhall Glacier***

This amazing glacier is 12 miles long and 1.5 miles wide, and worth the view from a float trip or by air. There are hiking trails into the area, and the Mendenhall Visitor Center is a wealth of information.

***Mt. Roberts Tramway***

For a bird's-eye view, the Mt. Roberts Tramway offers a short, six-minute trek to the top of Mt. Roberts, 1,800 feet above the city.

Ketchikan, Alaska

This southern-most Alaskan port city is known as Alaska's First City because it was the first major community travelers came to heading north. Founded as a fishing camp, Ketchikan is built on steep hillsides and is billed as the salmon capital of the world. A quaint village, the town is just three miles long and three blocks wide.

***Totem Bight State Historical Park***

With the world's largest collection of totem poles, these wood-carved creations portray colorful, intricate tales, often showing a family's history or depicting a local legend.

***Creek Street Boardwalk***

With its historic cable car and quaint boutiques, Creek Street is Ketchikan's most famous and photographed section, as well as a great place to spend a relaxing afternoon.

***Misty Fjords National Monument***

Seaplanes provide the most breathtaking vantage point for an exploration of the majestic Misty Fjords National Monument.

Victoria, British Columbia

At one time, a British colonial post, Victoria is full of historic sites, public parks and groomed gardens. Due to its location, this quaint yet sophisticated little seaside city boasts the mildest climate in Canada.

***Empress Hotel***

This Victorian-style hotel carries on a longstanding British tradition, serving up high tea. Dining is formal, complete with a dress code, but anyone can wander through the palatial lobbies, dining rooms and lounges.

***Butchart Gardens***

Visitors from all around the world are drawn to these 55 acres of spectacular floral displays. There are thousands of varieties of flowers, trees, shrubs and exotics, with four main gardens and seasonal attractions.
