The first Alaska cruise of the year is cheaper than other Alaska cruises... but what's it really like?! Join us onboard for our ENTIRE 7-day Alaska cruise on board the NCL Bliss! In this video, we cover EVERY DAY of our cruise in great detail - even the sea days, and the one non-Alaskan port in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada! We uploaded each day as a a separate video shortly after our cruise, but we know a lot of people prefer to watch in one long, huge 'movie'... so here you are! If you're looking for a more condensed rundown of the ports on this Alaskan cruise, you can find that here: https://youtu.be/MG3qoCvil3Q Thanks, and see you next time! - Beth and Tony @TravellingWithTeens 00:00:00 Embarkation Day in Seattle 00:21:12 Sea Day on NCL Bliss 00:35:15 Sitka 00:50:51 Juneau 01:13:53 Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier 01:27:26 Icy Strait Point & Hoonah 01:46:32 Ketchikan 02:03:11 Victoria, British Columbia (Canada)
