Creator's Key Takeaways

I did Alaska first and fell in love with the Wonder and then did cruising on the Wonder in San Diego many times

With Alaska, it's everybody goes on the same itinerary, but with Disney, you get the extra top-notch um service

The picturesque beauty of Alaska is beyond compare

Glacier Day is pretty crazy because everyone is going towards the bow of the ship or towards the stern

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack layers for Alaskan weather
Bring waterproof shoes and a waterproof phone case
Buy an extra blanket for Glacier Day
Use binoculars for wildlife viewing
Book excursions early, especially helicopter tours
