Creator's Key Takeaways

we ended up booking princess for a couple reasons I mean cost was a huge reason we're six people

I don't regret that we did that because it was a great trip we had great excursions

I would say for a very Excursion heavy itinerary I would be willing to Branch out again

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book private excursions for large families to save money
βœ“Bring your own soda from Target to avoid expensive drink packages
βœ“Consider a veranda room for Alaska to maximize glacier viewing

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Cost of excursions in Alaska β€” Budget for expensive excursions as they can cost as much as the cruise fare itself
Lack of lifeguards on Princess pools β€” Supervise children closely as most cruise lines, including Princess, do not have lifeguards
