Creator's Key Takeaways

we booked through a company called alaska shore and um they were amazing because first of all you save money by booking three tours with them

it saves you a hundred dollars so if you book three excursions through them

they also guarantee that you're going to return to your ship on time so that's a nice thing

we decided to cancel one of them once and we cancelled the wrong one you should have probably kept that one

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book three excursions with Alaska Shore to save $100
Book excursions early as some exclusive tours book quickly
Use credit cards for purchases in Canada to save on exchange rates
Don't wait in long tender lines; enjoy a drink at a bar instead
