Seabourn has released its lineup of Alaska and British Columbia itineraries for 2019.
The company has created a line-up of 11-,12- and 14-day Alaska and British Columbia cruises aboard Seabourn Sojourn. Less than 5,000 guests will be able to book these trips with 10 departures for the season, which runs from June to October 2019.
Highlights of the Seaborn 2019 itineraries are:

All departures have optional Ventures by Seabourn shore excursions with guided Zodiac cruising and kayak journeys leaving directly from the ship, along with hiking and wildlife viewing. Not only could travelers see Alaskan staples like glaciers and fjords, but also “hidden gems” inaccessible to larger ships. Naturalists, science, wildlife and historical experts from Seabourn Sojourn’s expedition team will be leading the journeys. They will also provide presentations on the ship.
Some itineraries include seldom visited locations like Alert Bay and Klemtu, a town with less than 500 people owned by the Kitasoo Native Band. Travelers can see the Inland Passage and Kenal Fjords. And they can also see cities and towns like the state capital of Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka.
Every cruise offers free Seabourn all-weather jackets, Seabourn Conversations with guest speakers, wildlife sightings and a “Caviar on the Ice” deck party.
Seabourn provides clients the chance to see more of Alaska with the Denali Experience: a custom designed, fully escorted overland adventure with a wildlife sighting in the Denali National Park and a flight on a flightseeing plane available before or after select Seabourn Alaska voyages. This program is five days long.
Once the season comes to a close, guests can do the Pacific Gold Coast program: a more than five-day voyage southbound from Vancouver to Los Angeles stopping in Seattle, Washington; Victoria, British Columbia; San Francisco, Monterey and Santa Barbara, California, Departure October 8.
