Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

3 out of 5
Get out of town and see the area - much more enjoyable that way.
Don't Miss: Mendenhall Glacier

Ketchikan, Alaska

5 out of 5
Lots of shopping, good for the last chance items on the southbound trip.
Don't Miss: Go out to see the totems at the Native American sites close to town.

Haines, Alaska

5 out of 5
A taste of the real Alaska. Barely enough time in port to enjoy both Haines and Skagway - an overnight would provide more time to enjoy this area.
Don't Miss: The hammer museum and going to Skagway.
