Creator's Key Takeaways

Alaska wow now it's interesting because we were obviously cruising with the crews and Canucks and they live in Canada as you probably know if you follow them and it was interesting their perspective over our perspective and our opinions and thoughts because first from the UK seeing particularly in Alaska the wildlife the body goes the whales the bear we've only seen one bear um all the deer just roaming around a month was absolutely magical to them

the food I had Rudy sold in there was absolutely exceptional I have to say and I had the biggest lobster tail I've ever seen in my life it was a monster it was three quarters of a pound in weight and it was humongous

the whale watching was about I got it written down in my book I don't know how much we paid it was big it was bigger Burgers yeah but so worth it we paid um for the whale watching it was 239 per person that's US dollars not Canadian uh but we were so lucky because we seen uh whales doing the bubble netting and it was just magical

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book excursions as soon as you book your cruise because they're popular and sell out.
βœ“Budget an extra thousand pounds for excursions if doing them in all ports.
βœ“When booking the Tamarind Restaurant on Koningsdam, request a table away from the bar.
βœ“Get your ESTA/ETA early if traveling to Alaska via Canada.
βœ“For the White Pass Railway, do coach up and train back for better views.
