What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œI've never seen a more beautiful day in Alaska than the weather that we had today.”

β€œDinner was outstanding. Every dish was spot-on from the starters to dessert. The flavors, the presentation, the setting, it all came together perfectly.”

β€œThat Circle Line Harbor cruise was amazing. Now, you get access to one Circle Line Cruise, and they have lots of different ones if you don't want to do the Sunset Harbor cruise.”

β€œno matter how many times you've seen it in pictures nothing compares to seeing it in person”

β€œwe found the most amazing local French restaurant near the Opera House called llo Bergen Yon where we had the best meal of the entire trip”

The Watch-outs

β€œdis embarcation day makes me sad very sad it's my least favorite day of the trip”

β€œthe road is so slick it was blowing and my car was fishtailing as I was going down the freeway”

β€œit started snowing but what has happened is that the road has turned in to a solid sheet of ice”

β€œThe biggest disappointment for us though was the hydrotherapy area. Instead of the large thalassotherapy pool that we'd enjoyed on ships like the Norwegian Bliss, the Joy has a much smaller hot tub.”

β€œYou do not want to get home from a wonderful 7 9day cruise and get surprised by a hefty phone bill.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Core Four Adventures.

  1. Leave extra time to browse the shops at Ward Cove.

  2. If you are on a cruise line that docks downtown, you don't have to take the shuttle.

  3. Be prepared with raincoats even if the sun is out.

  4. If you have the unlimited drink package or silver status, wine tastings may be cheaper than the standard $25.

  5. Use a rolling backpack when traveling in Europe to handle uneven streets or stairs where traditional rolling luggage is difficult.

  6. Keep essentials in your carry-on in case luggage takes time to arrive.

  7. Always take the inside passage on Alaskan cruises to minimize seasickness.

  8. Use scopolamine patches if you are prone to motion sickness.
