Day Three
One of the most spectacular cruise destinations on earth, Tracy Arm Fjord is actually made up of two separate fjords. Both fjords are over 30 miles long and one-fifth of their area is covered in ice. With hundreds of waterfalls, giant chunks of falling ice and a huge variety of native wildlife, you won’t even want to blink as you cruise past this natural wonder.
Day Four
Walk in the footsteps of pioneers and profiteers on Carnival cruises to Skagway. Gold seekers stampeded to the Klondike more than 100 years ago and built Skagway, Alaska, as their lawless outpost of brothels, saloons, and gambling dens. Today, the town is a time capsule from the past, with carefully preserved buildings and streets brimming with history. Live the final chapter of America’s Wild West era on a Skagway cruise. Stroll the boardwalks among historic buildings from the Klondike Gold Rush. Board quaint, antique passenger cars for a breathtaking mountain train ride. Follow the trail of the sourdoughs who risked their lives climbing Chilkoot Pass.

The capital of the Land of the Midnight Sun, Juneau offers a wide selection of delicious dining and Native art shopping. But Carnival cruises to Juneau also show you the most beautiful setting of any capital city in America, with options for once-in-a-lifetime shore excursions that include walking on glaciers, whale watching, and hikes through the country’s last old growth forests. See Alaska’s history displayed at the state’s leading museums. Touch glacier ice that’s thousands of years old. Stroll beneath the mystic green canopy of a Pacific Coast rainforest.
Day Six
For more than 100 years, Ketchikan, Alaska, has been the gateway to the North. Ketchikan cruises dock along the famed historic waterfront with the flourishing art scene and spectacular totem poles that have made this former frontier town a popular southern Alaskan port of call. Experience the sights, atmosphere, and excitement of the Last Frontier as soon as you cross the Alaska border on Carnival cruises to Ketchikan. See the most impressive ancient and modern totem poles in Alaska. Catch a demonstration of lumberjacking skills by adroit woodsmen—and women. Visit quaint shops on a historic street that’s actually a dock.
Day Seven
Carnival cruises to Victoria, British Columbia call on the genteel provincial capital perched on the southern tip of Vancouver Island.
