The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection unveils its inaugural itineraries aboard Luminara, marking the fleet’s first-ever voyages in the region. These trips depart between May and September 2026, offering 13 expertly curated voyages with calls on 11 ports across Alaska and Canada.
Journeys include visits to ports such as Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka as well as remote locations such as Klawock, Icy Strait Point and Wrangell. Voyages depart from Whittier, Alaska, and Vancouver, British Columbia, with trips ranging from seven to 11 nights. Extended stays in select ports such as Sitka, Valdez and Vancouver are also available, allowing for a deeper exploration of the region.
Excursions include soaring over Icy Strait Point on the world’s longest zip line ride, taking a helicopter ride over the 1,500-foot-tall cascades of Mahoney Falls and savoring local seafood with a guided tasting by an Alaskan fisherwoman and expert wilderness chef. Luminara is set to debut this July, marking the brand’s third superyacht. The ship will first set sail in the Mediterranean before embarking on voyages in the Asia-Pacific region and Alaska.
