3red7s Posted July 28, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hello CC people, looking to do a 7 day Alaskan trip, but having a hard time selecting. Looking especially for scenic views & sailing through the glaciers while viewing wildlife. We would like to sail from Seattle. All opinions are welcomed. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted July 28, 2021 #2 Share Posted July 28, 2021 You might want to check the Alaska ports of call board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCA6ft5 Posted July 28, 2021 #3 Share Posted July 28, 2021 When would you like to go? Can we assume you're talking about recommendations for Royal Caribbean itineraries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smplybcause Posted July 28, 2021 #4 Share Posted July 28, 2021 So after being there I would say Glacier Bay is a must see. So if you are only going on once I'd look for an itinerary with that....which I don't believe Royal has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted July 28, 2021 #6 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Try looking at Princess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
la_croisiere_s'amuse Posted July 28, 2021 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Sadly, this is one itinerary where I would not recommend RCI. I've done Princess and Celebrity, and I think they would both be a better fit for what you're looking for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted July 29, 2021 #8 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I wouldn't sail out of Seattle. If you want to cruise Alaska either do a northbound out of Vancouver or a round trip from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted July 29, 2021 #9 Share Posted July 29, 2021 another vote for Vancouver over Seattle! And preferably one-way. Vancouver departures sail on the east side of Vancouver island so the ship is between the Island and the mainland; more scenic and calmer waters. Seattle departures sail on the west side of V Island so it's basically open sea ... nothing to see and chance of rougher waters. Try to include Glacier Bay and Sitka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
