Creator's Key Takeaways
I would say the vast majority of our clients actually do the cruises that are round trip Vancouver okay out of those we have a handful or more that that do that and each of those itineraries and cruise lines also are slightly different
the most popular ones that go from Vancouver go straight from Vancouver between the mainland and Vancouver Island and straight up through the Inside passage all the way through
Alaska is beautiful and truly truly would be exotic for folks that are looking for that sort of thing absolutely and the scenery is gorgeous you have those opportunities to see the whales to see the dolphins
the season for Alaska actually starts it's May to September basically the first cruise is sometimes just before May and we've even seen them go uh Sometimes Late September
