Creator's Key Takeaways

Alaska cruise season is well underway and cruisers are looking at 2024 and Beyond there are so many choices to choose from and you don't want to make the wrong one

it's very important to have a balcony stateroom in Alaska in my opinion

Alaska cruise is going to be expensive it is significantly more than what you'd pay for a standard Caribbean cruise

we did one in Ketchikan where we took a seaplane tour with about a total of 10 people went around and it was absolutely an amazing experience

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Choose your cruise line very carefully and then choose the right cruise ship from that line
