Tracy Arm Fjord - Cruising & Sightseeing - Arrive: 06.30 - Depart: 10.30

Tracy Arm is an enormous fjord located 72 kilometres south of Juneau, and lies inside the largest temperate rain forest in the world - the Tongass National Forest of Alaska, USA. Tracy Arm is comprised of Yosemite-like granite rocks, countless waterfalls, glass-smooth water, and mountain peaks rising over 2000 metres. The ‘arm’ itself penetrates over 40 kilometres into the Alaskan wilderness, bending between near-vertical mountain chasms with numerous waterfalls cascading from spruce and hemlock-forested valleys. The highlight of this fjord are the twin glaciers - North Sawyer and South Sawyer - that are arguably the bluest and most beautiful glaciers in Alaska.

Juneau - Arrive: 14:00 - Depart: 19:30*

In 1880, it was slow going for Joe Juneau and Richard Harris as they searched for gold with the help of Native guides. After climbing mountains, forging streams and facing countless difficulties, they found nuggets "as large as beans." From their discovery came three of the largest gold mines in the world. By the end of World War II, more than $150 million in gold had been mined. Eventually, the mines closed, but the town Joe Juneau founded became the capital of Alaska, and the business of gold was replaced by the business of government. Some 30,000 people live in Juneau. Its total area of 3,255 square miles makes it one of the biggest towns, in size, in the world. Today, Juneau is famous not only for gold and government but also for its breathtakingly beautiful glaciers and stunning views of both water and mountains.

During the Yukon Gold Rush, Ketchikan, Alaska boomed with gold, silver and copper mines. As a prominent port, many arriving prospectors would go to Ketchikan, Alaska and it was quickly dubbed 'Alaska's First City'. When the gold dried up, fishing became the city's main commerce with some 1.5 million cases of canned salmon exported yearly in the 1930s. Ketchikan had earned its new title: Salmon Capital of the World.

Today, cruises to Ketchikan, Alaska entice travellers with its first frontier stories and truly awe-inspiring natural wonders waiting to be explored. Millions of salmon still churn through the creek every summer, passing by Alaska's largest collection of Native American totem poles, some of which are over 200 years old.

*Please Note: Travellers on the 30th April 2025 departure will dock at Ward Cove, an approximate 20 minute drive north of downtown Ketchikan. There is a free shuttle from Ward Cove to downtown Ketchikan.

Canada
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.

United States
If travelling on an Australian passport, an ESTA (Visa Waiver) for the USA is a strict requirement when travelling to or flying through the USA. Once a USA ESTA Visa Waiver is issued it is valid for 2 years or until your passport expires (whichever is sooner) and will allow multiple entries into the USA. For information on ESTA eligibility or to apply, please visit: https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/

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:
• It is your responsibility to be travel-ready and ensure that you are aware and comply with any destination or travel requirements, including the validity of all required travel documents.
• 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.

Embarking on your next trip is exciting, and while you hope the unexpected does not happen, it is best to be prepared. We strongly recommend you take out travel insurance when making your booking. Whether it’s a potential medical emergency, a flight cancellation, a delayed suitcase, or an unforeseen event, it's important to ensure you're adequately protected.
