Review summary

The Captain did a great job positioning the ship in Hubbard's bay to get maximum time and best views of the glacier. All the ship's staff were terrific.

Ports of call

Victoria, British Columbia

5 out of 5

We disembarked in Victoria and enjoyed our two day visit at Butchart Gardens and the Royal BC Museum. The night stay would not have permitted either.

Don't Miss: Both of the above.

Sitka, Alaska

We did not use our visit here well. We went to the National Historic Park but would have been better spent on a wildlife excursion.
