  1. Day 1

    Seattle, USA

    Seattle welcomes you with salt air, a working waterfront and mountain views. Downtown sights include Pike Place Market, the Seattle Art Museum and historic Pioneer Square. On clear days, the Space Needle offers views of Elliott Bay, Mount Rainier and the Cascades. Make time for fresh seafood and independent shops; Seattle’s neighborhoods reveal a city shaped by water, trade and innovation.

  2. Day 3

    Ketchikan, USA

    Set on Revillagigedo Island in southeast Alaska, Ketchikan is a working fishing town framed by the Tongass National Forest. Its waterfront rises steeply above the Inside Passage, where fishing boats and floatplanes share the harbor. Walk Creek Street, a former red-light district built over Ketchikan Creek. At the Totem Heritage Center, see Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian art. For wilderness, boat or fly to Misty Fjords National Monument.

  3. Day 4

    Prince Rupert BC, Canada

    Prince Rupert sits on Kaien Island, where British Columbia’s Inside Passage meets the Pacific. Its working harbour, rain-dark forests and mountain-framed shoreline give this northern port a distinctly maritime character. The Museum of Northern BC presents the art and history of the Tsimshian peoples. Their presence here spans millennia. In Cow Bay, browse waterfront shops and taste local seafood, including the region’s celebrated wild salmon.

  4. Day 6

    Nanaimo BC, Canada

    Nanaimo gives you a practical gateway to Vancouver Island, with a handsome harbour and compact downtown close to the water. Follow the Harbourfront Walkway past marinas and cafés, then explore the Old City Quarter for heritage buildings and independent shops. Nanaimo is closely associated with its namesake bar, layered with chocolate, custard and coconut. A short passenger-ferry ride reaches Saysutshun (Newcastle Island) Marine Provincial Park, with forest trails and shoreline paths.

  5. Day 7

    Victoria BC, Canada

    Victoria, British Columbia, sits at the southern end of Vancouver Island, with a harbour at its heart. From the cruise terminal, reach the Inner Harbour by shuttle, taxi, or a pleasant waterfront walk. Here, the Parliament Buildings and Fairmont Empress frame the water. The compact centre is easy to explore on foot. Browse Government Street, visit the Royal BC Museum, or head north to Butchart Gardens, about 23 kilometres away.

  6. Day 8

    Seattle, USA

    Seattle welcomes you with salt air, a working waterfront and mountain views. Downtown sights include Pike Place Market, the Seattle Art Museum and historic Pioneer Square. On clear days, the Space Needle offers views of Elliott Bay, Mount Rainier and the Cascades. Make time for fresh seafood and independent shops; Seattle’s neighborhoods reveal a city shaped by water, trade and innovation.
