Itinerary
Day1
August 23, 2020 - Anchorage, Alaska (hotel stay)
Day2
August 24, 2020 - Seward, Alaska (board ship)
While most cruise ships merely turn around here, Regatta actually calls on Seward, which is named for the U.S. Secretary of State who negotiated the purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867. The Seward Museum is a treasure trove of artifacts. The Alaska SeaLife Center showcases the abundant marine life, and nearby Chugach National Forest is a natural paradise.
Day3
August 25, 2020 - Cruising Hubbard Glacier
Take in the beautiful scenery as you enjoy a day at sea.
Day 4
August 26, 2020 - Icy Strait Point (Hoonah), Alaska
Hoonah means "where the north wind doesn't blow" in the language of the Tlingit Indians, who make up about 70% of the population of this village on the lee side of Chichagof Island. However, wildlife outnumbers everyone, so watch for bears, eagles and humpback whales, which migrate here in the summer.
Day 5
August 27, 2020 - Haines, Alaska
Nestled along America's longest fjord - the gorgeous Lynn Canal - Haines was first settled by Tlingit Indians. Totem poles are sprinkled about town, and fascinating artifacts from the Tlingits and the early pioneers are displayed in the Sheldon Museum. But nature is Haines' chief draw. Brown bears, moose and bald eagles are plentiful.
Day 6
August 28, 2020 - Juneau, Alaska
For a state capital, Juneau maintains a surprising small-town charm, in part because it can only be reached by sea or air due to the surrounding wilderness. Collections from the indigenous people are displayed in the Alaska State Museum. Visit Mendenhall Glacier for outdoor adventure.
Day 7
August 29, 2020 - Ketchikan, Alaska
Totem poles are one of Ketchikan's chief attractions, and the best places to view them are Saxman Village and Totem Bight State Park. Drop by the Southeast Alaska Discovery Center to learn about the local cultures and ecosystems.
Day 8
August 30, 2020 - Cruising the Inside Passage
Take in the beautiful scenery as you enjoy a day at sea.
Day 9
August 31, 2020 - Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (disembark ship)
Return home or join the Optional Vancouver Post-Tour
Extensions
Days10-11
Vancouver, BC, Canada
By far the largest port on Regatta's Alaska cruises, Vancouver offers every imaginable big-city attraction. Explore the Museum of Anthropology and the Vancouver Art Museum for culture. History flourishes in the Gastown district, which borders vibrant Chinatown. Or enjoy a break from the bustle in Stanley Park, one of North America's largest urban parks.
