Creator's Key Takeaways
Today is Glacier Bay Day, and I have to tell you, that's the reason why I booked this particular ship and this particular itinerary.
This is absolutely one of the best things to see. If you are booking an itinerary for Alaska, make sure you look to see if they are going to Glacier Bay.
Without a doubt, still my favorite day on a cruise. Just so beautiful.
It's my favorite thing that we did last 2 years ago, and it is something that I will make sure is on my itinerary every time we go to Alaska.

Join us as we just ramble around into the heart of one of Alaska's most breathtaking destinations—Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. We spotlight the Marjorie Glacier, one of the most iconic tidewater glaciers in the park, known for its frequent calving events, 250-foot face, and towering blue ice. As our cruise ship glides into the bay, you'll experience the serene majesty of this active glacier up close. Discover the dramatic history of this glacially carved landscape, from its formation just over 250 years ago during the Little Ice Age to its designation as a national monument in 1925 and eventual national park status in 1980. Today, it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a highlight of any Alaska Inside Passage cruise. Not every cruise line is allowed into Glacier Bay. The National Park Service limits ship traffic through a strict permitting system to protect the fragile environment. Only a select few cruise lines—like Holland America, Princess Cruises, and Norwegian Cruise Line—receive permits each season, making this stop a rare and exclusive experience for lucky passengers. Whether you're planning your own trip or just love armchair exploring, this video brings the beauty, history, and wonder of Glacier Bay right to your screen. 📍 Highlights – History of Glacier Bay’s formation and protection – Marjorie Glacier facts & viewing experience – Scenic footage from onboard the Norwegian Joy #ncljoy #alaskacruise #glacierbay #nationalparks #travelvlog Our Equipment: GoPro5 : https://amzn.to/3W706JP GoPro10 : https://amzn.to/3JoNRRt Nikon Z30 : https://amzn.to/4d2bOvo Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra DJI Mini 2 Our Software and Subscription Services: https://share.epidemicsound.com/cyumoq Adobe Premier Pro Adobe Photoshop Adobe Illustrator 🎉🎈🥳Please subscribe to our channel to stay in touch so we can share what we are up to!🐕🌋🌅 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYptpWdN5KNCq5pwdvGNrhQ?sub_confirmation=1 Website: www.justramblinaround.com Facebook: Just Ramblin Around Instagram: @justrambinaround Email: jrawithronandjodi@gmail.com Hi Ramblers!
