After breakfast our guest can get off the ship for enjoying one of the shore excursions they booked from the cruise liner. Juneau has been called “Alaska's peak experience,” certainly due in part to its unparalleled glacier viewing from such places as Tracy Arm Fjord, the Juneau Ice fields and Glacier Bay National Park. Kayak up one of the area's many protected waterways, go flight seeing, tour historic downtown or try your hand at panning for gold. Juneau is the capital of Alaska and one of the most famous cities to see Salmons and king crabs. The ship reaches the port in the afternoon so our guests have ample of time to walk around the ship, participate in a trivia or a treasure hunt that is arranged for you by the onboard staff. When the ship docks in Alaska we recommend you take one of the shore excursions from the ship, as they say no roads lead to Juneau, which gives the Alaskan capital a misty inscrutability. The massive Mendenhall Glacier and the immense Juneau Ice fields are at its back door. You can shop downtown or get out and kayak, dogsled, raft, hike, whale watch, flight see or fish. Overnight on board the cruise. (B, L, D)
