Ultimate 3-Day Alaska Cruise from Vancouver - Premium Glacier Experience
Charleston to Alaska: Gourmet Wilderness Cuisine
Charleston travelers discover authentic Alaskan flavors on our 3-day cruise featuring Michelin-trained chefs preparing wild-caught seafood. Unlike standard Princess Cruises buffets or Holland America banquet service, we source directly from Juneau fisheries daily.
Our signature "Taste of Alaska" menu includes:
• King crab legs from Kodiak Island
• Copper River salmon smoked over alder wood
• Reindeer sausage from Fairbanks ranches
Outperforming Royal Caribbean with traditional cooking methods.
Charleston foodies enjoy panoramic dining during glacier viewing - a dual experience Celebrity Cruises can't match on 3-day itineraries.
