Day 3 – Ketchikan, Alaska
Known as the “Salmon Capital of the World,” Ketchikan is rich in Native culture and frontier charm. Visit the totem poles of Saxman Village, stroll along historic Creek Street’s boardwalk, or embark on a wildlife cruise to see eagles, seals, and perhaps a bear or two along the lush Tongass National Forest.

Day 4 – Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier (Scenic Cruising)
Marvel at the blue ice of Dawes Glacier as your ship glides through the narrow, fjord-like Endicott Arm.

Alaska’s capital offers endless adventure. Take a helicopter tour to walk atop Mendenhall Glacier, ride the Mount Roberts Tramway for panoramic views, or join a whale-watching expedition. Downtown Juneau features gold rush-era buildings, craft breweries, and shops selling locally made art and jewelry—ideal for unique keepsakes.
