Day 9 Juneau, Alaska 07:00 13:30

Accessible only by water and air, it´s not surprising that wildlife thrives in Juneau´s stun-ning frontier landscape. In fact, it´s the only state capitol whose governor´s mansion sits less than one mile from prime grizzly bear habitat.

Cruise Sawyer Glacier Experience an impressive trip through the tight and twisty Tracy Arm, past 1.000 me-ter-high rock faces with the spectacular Sawyer Glacier located at its end. In this wilder-ness you will find a variety of animals, for example whales, sea lions, bears and wolves.

Day 10 Skagway, Alaska 07:00 17:30

It all started in 1896, when gold was discovered in a tributary of the Klondike River and tiny Skagway quickly grew to 20.000 residents. By 1900, the White Pass and Yukon Route railway began carrying the more fortunate gold seekers over the mountain pass. The real gold, some say, never left Skagway. It´s still here in the matchless golden sunrises and sunsets.
