Vancouver, Icy Strait Point, Sitka, Skagway, Seward

Cosmopolitan Vancouver, British Columbia, a natural harbour at the most southern part of Canada on the Atlantic, near the Coast Mountains, is the capital of the verdant British Columbia, characterized as the most livable city for 2014. It spreads along a peninsula and is divided in 3 zones: Downtown commercial and financial district, including the historic area of Gastown, Stanley Park, with 1,000 acres of forests, gardens, lakes and lawns and vibrant Chinatown), Westside Vancouver (which includes Kitsilano and South Vancouver) and East Vancouver, with the Punjabi Market. Enjoy one of the mildest climates in Canada, pass a day strolling in the amazing Butchart Gardens near Victoria or do some winetasting at the province's wine country Okanagan Valley. Last but not least, follow in the footsteps of the millions of visitors who have crossed Capilano Suspension Bridge since 1889, the biggest suspending pedestrian bridge which connects the two sides of Capilano bridge, in North Vancouver.

The Icy Strait Point is located in the island Chichagof, in the homonym Strait in the Alexander Archipelago in southeastern Alaska. It is a private tourist destination, which belongs to a company of Indigenous inhabitants of Alaska.

Sitka, one of the most beautiful seaside towns in Alaska, was once capital, cultural and political hub of Russian America, seat of the bishop of Kamchatka and the most important port on the West Coast for the first half of the 19th century. A living proof of the town's key position as a Russian settlement, is St. Michael's Cathedral, an active Russian Orthodox Church with the distinctive onion- shaped domes. You will be greeted by native Tlingit people, who have lived continuously in Sitka for over 50 centuries, you will see totems carved by the masterful hands of Tlingit and Haida Indians at Sitka National Historical Park and you can enjoy a performance by the New Archangel Dancers, who preserve the heritage by delivering spirited dance renditions that represent the cultures of Russia and surrounding areas.

During the gold rush period, in 1898, Skagway was the gate to Klondike and it was known as the harshest city in the world, boasting more than 80 saloons.

Today, the small Gold Rush town of Skagway is the favorite stop on an Alaskan cruise. Ride the antique White Pass & Yukon narrow-gauge railway, step into the historic Red Onion Saloon (1897) or peruse the restored buildings and wooden boardwalks of the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park.
