See Alaska from a different point of view aboard Brilliant Lady. Virgin Voyages brings its adults-only approach to glaciers, coastal towns and some of the region’s most memorable scenery, with plenty to enjoy both on board and ashore.
Alaska, With No Kids on Board
There is a lot competing for your attention on an Alaska cruise. Glaciers outside your window. Mountains rising behind the ports. Long summer days and plenty of daylight to enjoy. And Virgin Voyages makes it easier to soak it all in thanks to one important difference: everyone onboard Brilliant Lady is 18 or older.
An adults-only ship changes the experience, especially on days at sea. You can come back from a morning kayaking at Icy Strait Point, grab dinner at one of the 20+ eateries on board, see a show or settle in somewhere with a drink and no worries. There are no kids’ clubs or family activities to plan around. The restaurants, entertainment, fitness classes and spaces around the ship are all designed with adults in mind.

See Alaska From the Water
Some of the best moments in Alaska happen between ports. Virgin Voyages’ 2027 sailings pass through the Inside Passage, Endicott Arm to Dawes Glacier, where the scenery becomes part of the day on board. It is the kind of sailing where you will probably want your camera close by. The landscape is part of the itinerary, with mountains, waterfalls, ice and miles of coastline unfolding along the way.

Choose Your Alaska Route
With nine nights to work with, the Vancouver-Seattle sailing gives you a little more time to settle into the landscape. Aboard Brilliant Lady, you’ll cruise the Inside Passage, spend time in Alaska’s coastal towns and see Hubbard Glacier from the water. There is intriguing history along the way, especially in places shaped by the Gold Rush, but plenty of eye-popping wilderness too, from the mountains around Juneau to the forested coastline near Ketchikan. Two days at sea before reaching Seattle leave some breathing room at the end of the trip.
The seven-night Glacial Fjords & Coastal Views sailing offers another way to see Alaska. Sailing roundtrip from Seattle, it combines time in Ketchikan and Sitka with a day cruising Tracy Arm Fjord, a narrow stretch of water surrounded by steep, glacier-carved cliffs, waterfalls and floating ice. The route continues to Victoria on the coast of British Columbia before one final day at sea. It is a shorter trip, but one that still gives you time both ashore and out on the water.
