Skagway was Alaska's largest town with a population of about 20,000 during the gold rush in 1898. Hotels, saloons, dance halls and gambling houses prospered. But when the gold dwindled, so did the population.

Witness the grandeur of tidewater glaciers, including the Dawes Glacier, at the fjord's head, where colossal ice chunks calve into the waters during the summer. Ships gracefully navigate this glacial wonderland, surrounded by icebergs of various sizes.

Protected by the Tongass National Forest, Endicott Arm shelters diverse wildlife, from bears and deer to seals and seabirds. Glide through the fjord, encountering lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and snow-capped mountains, offering an immersive snapshot of Alaska's untamed beauty.

Amazing Experience   2 , New Zealand, Feb 2025
Virgin Cruisers here. From the outset - from searching for the appropriate cruise/ assistance all the way - Hannah Perry at Global Journeys was amazing to deal with. There was potentially a group of 25 which reduced to 16 - Hannah assisted each and every one of us. All I needed to do was to refer all family to Hannah. Everyone came back with the same read more compliments - so attentive/ easy to deal with - so quick to respond. Then we go onto the cruise - Quantum of the Seas - Brizzy to Airlie Beach - 4 nights. Just perfect amount of time for us. We all had the best time. The whole family enjoyed it and great memories were made. Will definitely do it again over the next couple of years - and will be looking for Royal Carribean as so many regular cruisers complimented this was their favourite ship. Thank you Hannah and the team and thank you Royal Carribean - we couldnt have asked for a better experience.
City of Entertainment on the water 4 , QLD, Australia, Mar 2024
Fantastic on Quantum of the Seas - with 2 teenagers in tow! So much for them and us to do. If we were on our own, we probably would choose a smaller ship next time as we were worn out getting to all the activities and we would travel when it isn't school holidays.! The evening shows were terrific and there were so many fun fun trivia sessions. Staff read more were impeccable and there was such good quality food of every description. They were extremely clean and germ conscious!

Our stateroom was good quality ship standard, but if you like a soft bed, ask for an extra bed topper! (I found out on our last night we could do this!) We discovered that if you book the tours through the ship, it costs more, but when it comes to the tender boats to go to ports, they got the preference. At Port Vila there was only 2 tender boats going back and forth which took 1 hr each - for 5,000 people!? Our tour was booked for 8.30am and we finally arrived at port and left for our tour at midday. (The tour people waited and arranged alternative for us (we were up at 5.30am to beat the rush!) They put 10 tenders on coming back onto ship. Other than that, well worth it! Global Journeys certainly made our travels easy with the way they handled our booking and documents -thank you Hannah.
