Vancouver Roundtrip
There’s one awe-inspiring sight after another on this voyage around Alaska, a roundtrip from the Canadian oceanfront city of Vancouver. Our first stop is Ketchikan, where the houses are built on stilts over the water and there’s a fine collection of 19th-century totem poles to see. Next, Sitka, where the onion-shaped dome on Saint Michael’s is a reminder of when this was Russian territory. Now you’ll witness the unforgettable sight of the Hubbard Glacier calving great chunks of ice into the sea, and then there are thrills in store at Icy Strait Point, a former salmon cannery turned outdoor activity center. See 8,000-year-old rock paintings at Wrangell, home of the Tlingit people, and Klawock is your gateway to big nature at the Misty Fjords National Park. At Prince Rupert, the adventurous can spot wildlife including grizzly bears and orcas, then it’s on through the Seymour Narrows to Victoria, where the architecture harks back to the days of British rule, before we reach our final destination, Vancouver.
