The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has revealed its first set of Alaskan itineraries for the summer of 2026. These voyages, set aboard the Luminara yacht, will depart between May and September. They offer 13 unique tours of 11 different ports across Alaska and Canada.
The itineraries feature a mix of popular destinations and secluded locales, offering guests the opportunity to experience the region’s natural beauty while enjoying luxury accommodations and personalized service. The voyages will include scenic views of the Hubbard Glacier and Sawyer Glacier, visits to ports such as Juneau, Ketchikan, and Sitka, and trips to more remote locations like Klawock and Icy Strait Point.
“We are excited to offer these new Alaskan itineraries, which provide a unique way to explore the region, combining luxury accommodations and service with access to remote locations,” said Jim Murren, Executive Chairman and CEO of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection.
The voyages will range from 7 to 11 nights, with extended stays in select ports for deeper exploration of the region. Luminara will journey through Tracy Arm Fjord and Endicott Arm Fjord, offering close-up views of the Sawyer and Dawes Glaciers.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection offers personalized shore excursions, including zipline rides over Icy Strait Point, helicopter flights over Mahoney Falls, and local seafood-tasting experiences.
Luminara, the third superyacht of the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, will debut in July 2025. The yacht features 226 suites, each with a private ocean-view terrace, and offers amenities such as gourmet dining experiences, a spa, and access to the sea from the yacht’s marina. It will set sail in the Mediterranean before embarking on voyages in the Asia-Pacific region and Alaska.
