Alaska’s Fjords & Glaciers with Ketchikan - Adventure Cruise itinerary:

show reverse itinerary
DAY 1 Juneau Embarkation

After a day of exploring Alaska’s Capital City of Juneau, board your small adventure ship, and enjoy a proper glass of Champagne and time to meet the UnCruise team. You have time to take in a bit of the city once you check in. But after boarding, grab a glass of bubbly as you push off the dock enjoying great views. (D)

DAY 2 Endicott Arm Fjord and Dawes Glacier Wilderness Area

Take an early peek out your window. Fjord cliffs reach skyward. Floating ice. And deep u-shaped valleys. Cruise past harbor seals and their pups lounging on chunks of ice. At the end of Endicott, the blue face of Dawes Glacier is storeys high. And in classic fjord form. Tides permitting, your skiff driver knows the ropes and guides you along. It’s a mashup of towering walls, temperamental currents, and the Coastal Mountains. So many waterfalls. Mountain goats show off fancy foot work on the cliffs. Look for them. (BLD) 

DAY 3 Fredricks Sound Whale and Maring Mammal Search

Humpbacks beeline it here each season to feed on krill, zooplankton, and herring. Watch for whales feasting in these abundant glacial waters. Hang out and enjoy the show. Based on wind and weather, your expedition team has the lineup of adventures all mapped out. Cruise past Five Fingers Lighthouse, Alaska’s oldest light station and The Brothers Islands, where sea lions nap on rocky nobs. Paddle into the deeps of Port Houghton or Windham Bay or head ashore for a hike. Tonight, toast another big day in Alaska. (BLD)

DAY 4 Thomas Bay - Wrangell Narrows

When you come this far, you might as well go all in. This is way back backcountry of Alaska’s wilderness. Glacial landscapes marked by moraines, muskegs, and mud. In this playground, it’s all an option today. Kayak and skiff in water almost clear as glass. Later, wind into the Wrangell Narrows. Abundant bright red and green navigation lights guide the way. It’s nicknamed “Christmas Tree Lane,” of course. Thomas Bay is one of the few areas where the fit can hike to elevation along the famed Cascade Creek Trail to lake above…but you will need to be in top condition for this or choose a long relaxing kayak journey.   (BLD)

DAY 5 Blashke Islands Watersports Paradise

The Blashkee Islands are your playground today. A full day of choose-your-own-adventure fun. Hiking, Kayaking, skiff tours, snorkeling, and full day yak-n-whack excursions. But let's remember this area is unknown to most, with a chain of islands perfect for off vessel activities. But watch out for whales that frequent this area…the can surprise you! Get ready for a full day! (BLD)

DAY 6 Yes Bay and Misty Fjords National Monument

Activities begin this morning in Yes Bay, and how can you say no to that! Wildlife abounds. Black bears, mink, eagles. In Behm Canal, it’s all remote waterways and the isolated Tongass National Forest. On Cleveland Peninsula, your expedition team leads a low-elevation hike near clear, rushing streams. Good opportunities for enticing forested shots of Southeast. In the water orca, porpoises, seals, and otters go about their business. Go about yours on a guided paddle in tiny, deserted waterways that feed into Behm Canal. (BLD)

DAY 7 Walker Cove and Misty Fjords National Monument

There are places on the planet that completely overcome you. This is one of them. The beauty. The peace. The sense of place you feel. Misty Fjords National Monument represents nearly every ecosystem found in Southeast Alaska. And that alone is a lot to consider. Glacial valleys filled with sea water. Sheer 3,000 foot cliffs. Sea birds, brown and black bears, mountain goats, Sitka black-tailed deer, all find safe haven here. Kayak in Walker Cove or Rudyerd Bay and you find it’s just as easy to paddle and go, as it is to sit and float and take it all in. The area’s affectionate nickname, “The Yosemite of the North,” is deserved. And it’s an amazing wrap to your week. Your captain joins you tonight for a Farewell Dinner. Celebrate and reminisce about your Alaskan journey with a “photo journal” by your crew. (BLD)

DAY 8 Ketchikan Disembarkation

After breakfast this morning, bid adieu to your new pals before you disembark and transfer to the Ketchikan airport or begin your extended UnCruise hotel stay or land tour. Going to the airport is different in Ketchikan, prepare for a ferry boat ride across the channel to an island that is home to the airport. (B)

Wilderness Discoverer, the ship servicing Alaska’s Fjords & Glaciers with Ketchikan - Adventure Cruise

Wilderness Discoverer

Vessel type: Expedition

Length: 176 feet

Passenger Capacity: 76 guests

Built: 1992, renovated 2012

Inviting, and oh-so cared for by her crew, the Wilderness Discoverer delivers big adventure with fine finishing touches. Wild, remote, and at the edges of the map, she carries a bit of Alaska wherever she sails—the beautiful bar top and tap tower are made from a yellow cedar log found in Peril Strait. But looks aside, she doesn’t hold back when it comes to exploration. Her shoal draft allows access to waters that are off-limits to bigger boats, where she can slip right in. An instigator of action, she was the first “Wilderness” boat in the family and set us on a path toward greater adventures that you’ll experience, too.

The Lounge has a GPS map for you to monitor the ship’s location throughout your voyage, The lounge also has a limited library, filled with wildlife encyclopedias, Alaska guidebooks, and some light reads. Guests can buy hiking gear, knit caps, and T-shirts, with and without the logo of UnCruise Adventures. Binoculars are available for wildlife-spotting.

The dining room features open seating where meals will be served at set times throughout the day. Unlimited beverages, alcoholic and non, are included in the price of the cruise. Vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options are always available, and dietary restrictions are happily accommodated if noted in advance.

Onboard Amenities
EZ Dock kayak launch platform, bow-mounted underwater camera, kayaks, paddleboards, inflatable skiffs, hiking poles, snorkel gear/wetsuits, two on-deck hot tubs, fitness equipment and yoga mats, movie and book library.
