For many people, an Alaska cruise is a “bucket list” item. Enjoying the gorgeous scenery and wildlife, floating past massive glaciers, and visiting remote national parks while relaxing and indulging on a beautiful ship can be the perfect summer vacation for adults or families. Today we are going to look at a cruise from Princess Cruises, one of the leaders in Alaskan cruising.
The cruise that we are looking at is a 7-Day Voyage on the Glaciers with Glacier Bay, which runs one-way from Vancouver, Canada to Whittier, Alaska. The itinerary for this cruise includes stops in Ketchikan, Juneau, and Skagway as well as 3 days at sea where you witness the breathtaking marvels of Glacier Bay and College Fjord. While onboard the Caribbean Princess you will be able to take advantage of the pools, hot tubs, sports courts and mini golf, and enjoy the evenings with live shows, music, trivia, dancing and a casino. And you will never go hungry with a plethora of included dining choices available for every meal. This fare also includes beverages and specialty desserts, so you can indulge yourself a bit while on vacation.
The price for 2 adults in a balcony room departing on July 19, 2025 is $5,326. This includes all taxes, fees and gratuities, but does not include airfare, ground transportation or insurance.
If you are looking to get more out of your vacation you can add a land tour to the end of your cruise. Upon disembarking in Whittier, you will hop on a train with domed rail cars that will take you through the wilderness to one of five exclusive wilderness lodges near Denali National Park. You can add anywhere from 3 to 8 days to explore the area with various tour options. These land tours start at around $1,000 per person, and are an easy and fun way to see more of Alaska.
