Creator's Key Takeaways

I disembarked my Alaska cruise in 2023 in Whittier.

I believe this was a special privilege as I was traveling with an employee of the Holland America Princess Corporation.

Having visited Whittier on a couple of occasions under different circumstances, I can say for sure it is an incredibly scenic area.

Actually, I would love to return to Whittier and do the 26th Glacier Cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider a day trip from Anchorage to Whittier for glacier cruises or wildlife viewing.
Book the Alaska Railroad Glacier Discovery Train for a scenic journey from Anchorage to Whittier.
If you're an animal lover, drive from Anchorage to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center and Byron Glacier.
