"The greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted."
- Bill Bryson
“Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
- Mark Twain

Norwegian Encore 7-Day Alaskan Cruise
August 29, 2027 - September 5, 2027
from Seattle, Washington
Cruise from the Emerald City of Seattle to the wilds of Alaska for seven spectacular days.
Seattle, Washington: Seattle sits on the slip of land between Puget Sound and Lake Washington, with the Olympic and Cascade Mountains serving as a dramatic backdrop for this oh-so cosmopolitan city. Soar up the futuristic Space Needle and experience the views atop this stunning landmark created for the 1962 World's Fair. The Pike Place Market has been a defining Seattle icon for more than a century. Considered by many “the soul of Seattle,” the Market spans nine historic acres in the center of downtown where everyday locals and tourists alike shop, visit, eat and discover.
Juneau: 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 Icefields and Glacier Bay National Park. Kayak up one of the area's many protected waterways, go flightseeing, tour historic downtown or try your hand at panning for gold. The majestic Mendenhall Glacier lies nearly 12 miles outside Juneau, a trek worthwhile. Take a shuttle to the Mendenhall Glacier or ride the Goldbelt Tram for a bird's-eye view of the Gastineau Channel.
Skagway: In a single year from 1896 to 1897, this remote town along the Inside Passage grew from a few tents to a city of 20,000 gold seekers. Today, travelers come in search of other riches – to experience yesteryear along Skagway's charming boardwalk lined with buildings that replicate those Gold Rush days. This town is easy to explore on foot, but the White Pass Railway will reveal Alaska’s beautiful interior. Step back into the 1898 Gold Rush. A ride on the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad is a must for stunning mountain vistas.
Glacier Bay (Cruising): Sail to Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, a United Nations World Heritage Site. Comprised of 3.3 million acres of natural wonders, it is home to magnificent glaciers, snow-capped mountains and abundant birds and wildlife. Take an Alaskan cruise to experience the magnificent glaciers and wildlife at the Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. National Park Rangers often board the ship to provide commentary on the calving glaciers and wildlife.
Ketchikan (Ward Cove), Alaska: Thanks to its abundant rainfall, Ketchikan is surrounded by some of the world's most lush wilderness. Its Tlingit Indian name, Kach Khanna, means “spread wings of the eagle.” Chances are you'll see one of these magnificent birds perched atop a Sitka tree during your Alaska cruise to Ketchikan (Ward Cove). Known as the "Salmon Capital of the World," explore the colorful Creek Street or visit the Totem Heritage Center. Note that NCL docks at Ward Cove, which requires a short shuttle ride into the main downtown area.
Victoria, British Columbia: Roam the spacious lawns of stunning Butchart Gardens with its exotic flora, unusual topiary and exquisite fountains. Explore historic Bastion Square, the treasures of Chinatown and the many sights and sounds to be found along the boardwalk of the Inner Harbour.
