The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has announced its Summer 2027 itineraries for the luxury yacht Luminara, featuring 21 voyages across Asia and Alaska. The season, spanning April to October 2027, includes 15 journeys through Alaska’s stunning landscapes and four voyages across Asia, alongside two transcontinental crossings. These itineraries promise immersive exploration paired with the comfort of ultraluxury travel.

Luminara will return to Alaska with expanded itineraries, sailing between Vancouver, British Columbia, and Whittier, Alaska. Highlights include navigating the Inside Passage and offering guests unparalleled views of glaciers and wildlife. The yacht’s intimate size allows access to smaller ports like Wrangell and Klawock, providing unique wildlife viewing opportunities during bear season and the salmon run.

In Asia, new ports of call include Seoul, serving as a gateway to South Korea’s coastal beauty, and Tianjin, offering access to Beijing’s iconic landmarks. Northern Japan will also debut as a new region with stops in Otaru and Akita. These voyages will feature exclusive shore experiences, such as guided food tours and cultural workshops.

Ernesto Fara, President and CEO of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, stated, “Our Summer 2027 season on Luminara reflects our continued focus on immersive exploration by sea, pairing expanded Alaska voyages and new ports of call across Asia with the comfort of ultraluxury accommodations and personalised service.”

The itineraries offer a blend of cultural enrichment, culinary experiences, and wellness activities, ensuring guests a seamless and enriching journey through these extraordinary regions.
