This itinerary is ideal for clients who enjoy the sense of a journey, combining a classic fly-drive between two great West Coast cities with the ease of a fully hosted cruise into Alaska.
San Francisco to Eureka
Fly via Charlotte to San Francisco to begin with three nights in the Union Square area, perfectly placed for days spent exploring the waterfront, riding the cable cars or heading out over the Golden Gate Bridge. Collect your car at San Francisco International Airport and start north along the coast, breaking the journey with an overnight stay in Eureka so there is time to enjoy the scenery rather than simply pass through it.
Coos Bay, Salem and Portland
From Eureka the road continues into Oregon, where your nights in Coos Bay and Salem give you a taste of quiet coastal stretches and small-city life. Each stop is arranged at comfortable properties with easy access to local dining and simple sightseeing. A two night stay in downtown Portland follows, allowing a full day to get a feel for the city’s parks, food scene and riverside districts before you drive the final leg to Seattle.
Seattle and Alaska Cruise
Arriving into Seattle, you drop your car downtown and settle in for four nights at a waterfront hotel that puts you close to the city’s shops, restaurants and sights. On 04 September you board Celebrity Edge for a seven night Alaska Dawes Glacier cruise that takes you from Seattle to Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Endicott Arm and Victoria, with scenic cruising through the Inside Passage. After returning to Seattle you have a private transfer to the airport for your flights home via Dallas Fort Worth.
