Day 5 Ketchikan, Alaska

Here you can be sure to find Alaska’s busiest waterfront buzzing with boat planes, fishing boats, pleasure craft, and busy fishermen.
Once colonised by Tlingit and Haida tribes, Ketchikan is a thriving fishing town with colourful stilted houses, a rich Alaskan culture and a throng of trawlers hauling in fresh crab and salmon.

Day 6 Tracy Arm Fjord (Cruise-by) and Juneau, Alaska

Tracy Arm Fjord, Alaska:
Venture into the genuine wilderness as you sail to the towering mountain peaks at the entrance of Tracy Arm Fjord, located in the southeastern strip of Alaska bordering British Columbia.
Accessible by boat or seaplane, getting to Tracy Arm Fjord itself is part of the adventure. Discover this delight on your Alaskan cruise.
This impressive fjord is surrounded by cascading waterfalls and granite cliffs for as far as the eye can see. Deep within undisturbed nature, this attraction sits in an almost magical atmosphere.
Appreciate scenic views of mountain peaks, emerald waters, tremendous glaciers, and Alaskan wildlife.

Juneau, Alaska:
Beneath an ice field that never melts, on a waterway that never freezes, Juneau is the unusual and disarmingly beautiful capital of Alaska. Located approximately 21 kilometres from Juneau, the Mendenhall Glacier is the not-to-be-missed attraction (shore excursion required).
Despite its status as Alaska’s capital, Juneau’s appeal far exceeds its city limits. Frequently cited as Alaska’s most scenic city, Juneau is nature’s playground, and what a playground it is. Waters abound with Humpbacks and orcas, forested trails leading to snow-ensconced mountains and majestic eagles circling overhead.
A town that’s history began during Alaska’s gold rush is rich with treasures of all varieties, from native Tlingit history and excellent seafood to an abundance of outdoor pursuits. It’s little wonder that most of Juneau’s residents arrived for a short stay and decided never to leave.

Overnight: Cunard ‘Queen Elizabeth’

Meals included: Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

Day 7 Sitka, Alaska

A city that appears to have sprung up in the most unlikely of locations, Sitka is one of Alaska’s most picturesque port calls.
Its location celebrates everything that makes this otherworldly US state unique: snow-encrusted mountains, densely forested wilderness and intensely sapphire waters that radiate with glass-like shine. Yet the city is more than a basecamp for outdoor adventurers.
Sitka enjoys a blended history as diverse as its scenery. Russian, Tlingit and American settlers have all imprinted on the city. Art and culture thrive as richly as Pacific salmon here, and while small compared to other Alaskan communities, Sitka boasts countless treasures for visitors to admire.

As you take to the streets of Seattle, after disembarking Queen Elizabeth in port, there’s one landmark you can’t fail to spot and that’s the city’s Space Needle. Located in the lower Queen Anne neighbourhood, this iconic observation tower is nothing short of a Seattle institution.
Set over two floors, and open daily for visitors, this striking feat of engineering boasts the world’s first and only revolving glass floor. The 360-degree views over the city are some of the best you’ll find, which shouldn’t come as a surprise considering you’ll be taking them in at heights of over 500 feet above ground (not included, charges apply).

Another notable Seattle landmark that you might want to seek out (particularly if you’re feeling peckish) is Pike Place Market.
The self-proclaimed ‘Soul of Seattle’, Pike Place Market has held a presence in the city since the early 1900s. Open 363 days a year, the market spans nine acres of Seattle’s historic downtown and is one of the longest and largest continually operating in the United States. Maps are available to help you find your way around and market tours are also offered by local organisers (charges may apply).
Along with fresh produce, crafts, and artisan products, Pike Place Market also houses a great selection of independent restaurants and bars – perfect if you’re looking to sample a true taste of Seattle.

If you have any questions regarding the gratuities on your cruise, please speak to the guest services staff onboard the ship.
 
Sightseeing:
Please note: If entry to a site is affected by changes in operating hours or public holiday closures, your itinerary, where possible, may be adjusted, or a similar activity will be offered in its place (subject to availability).
 
Shopping: 
Shopping overseas can be a daunting and confusing experience, especially when there is a language barrier. Please be very cautious when foreign currencies and prices are involved. If paying by credit card, please pay close attention to the amount you are being charged and keep all your receipts. 
Do not make any purchases you are not comfortable with or feel pressured into. If you are uncertain or need assistance with the language barrier, please seek assistance from your Tour Guide/Leader.
Please refer to our Terms and Conditions regarding shopping for further information.
Visas

United States of America: 
Australian passport holders must obtain an “ESTA” visa waiver in order to enter or transit in the United States.
Please note: You may be required to obtain a visa if you do not meet the eligibility requirements of the ESTA program. Please see https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov for full eligibility requirements and applications.
 
Canada
If transiting via Canada on the way to the USA, Australian and New Zealand passport holders must apply for an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) before travelling to Canada by air. An Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) is an entry requirement for visa-exempt foreign nationals travelling to Canada by air. An eTA is electronically linked to a traveller’s passport. It is valid for up to five years or until the passport expires, whichever comes first. If you get a new passport, you need to get a new eTA. If you arrive in Canada by train, bus, or boat, you don’t need a visa or eTA, but you do need to bring the right travel documents.

Travellers on an Australian passport do not require a visa for stays up to 180 days. Travellers must hold a machine readable passport valid at least 6 months beyond the intended period of stay with one blank visa page.
 
Costa Rica:
Travellers on an Australian passport do not require a visa for stays up to 90 days. Travellers must hold a machine readable passport valid at least 6 months beyond the intended period of stay with one blank visa page.

Important: 
• Please start arranging your visa three weeks before departure to account for any delays due to consulate operating hours.
• Visa rules may have changed since Covid-19. Some countries and airlines may require you to obtain an additional visa before arrival. Please check with the nearest embassy, consulate or immigration department of the destination you're entering.
Please note: 
• Passengers who are not Australian citizens must also check with the respective consulate or visa agency to determine what their visa requirements are and what personal identification is required.
• It is also important to note that some areas of employment, such as journalism, government authorities and charity organisations, may have additional restrictions in applying for visas. This may, in turn, affect the type of application required.
