An Inside Passage sailing hugs the Pacific coast and includes some of the most spectacular cruise scenery anywhere. Because these cruises depart from and return to the same port, they don't travel as far up the coast as the Glacier Route cruises. But you still see the best fjords and glaciers and call into the most popular ports. Most cruises depart from either Vancouver or Seattle, but longer itineraries are available out of San Francisco.
Cruise close to the steep mountain walls of the Inside Passage or watch massive chunks of ice tumble in the sea in Glacier Bay. Stroll along the weathered wooden walkways of Creek Street in Ketchikan. Ride the Mount Roberts Tramway in Juneau for a dramatic view of the Gastineau Channel.
