Creator's Key Takeaways

We found the cheapest Alaska cruise from Seattle, but this one is a little controversial.

The key to any Alaska cruise is excursions. So, this is the rule. We must do some type of adventure at every port call.

This is the best excursion I have done in a very long time, I am having the time of my life.

I absolutely love Alaska. I love these snowcap peaks that are all around. Love the glaciers.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Explore your ship early in the cruise to discover the best viewing spots.
โœ“Book your shore excursions early because the best options sell out quickly.
โœ“Get your viewing spot early on scenic sailing days.
โœ“Bring good binoculars for viewing wildlife and glaciers.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Not having enough excursions planned for port calls โ€” Book shore excursions early to avoid missing out on the best options.
Finding activities in limited time at ports โ€” Plan ahead and be flexible; even the hunt for an adventure can be part of the experience.
