Creator's Key Takeaways

the very first time that we went to Alaska back in 2014 I was really surprised about how many gift shops and all of the um tourist places there were

you need to conscientiously plan something other than just looking around otherwise if you think I'm going to get off and walk around the town and really see things

I really challenge you to try something different and whether it's food whether it's um going on some kind of Excursion

before you go do your research don't think that you're going to throw a book about Alaska in your suitcase and you'll figure it out on the airplane

Creator's Tips & Advice

Plan something other than just shopping when you get off the ship
Do research before your trip to know what to see and do
Get out into the scenery and enjoy the wilderness
