Creator's Key Takeaways

We recently took a 7-day Alaska cruise with a family group of 10.

This is our second Alaska cruise, and we know that excursions can be expensive here.

This is Skagway's number one activity, and everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed it.

Did I mention that Ketchacan is my favorite port?

Reuben and Rebecca head out on our 2nd Alaska cruise, this time aboard the Ruby Princess. We will show you what we feel are the best Alaska excursions for the money, including pricey excursions (White Pass train), medium excursions (Mt. Roberts Tram) and free excursions (Ketchikan Creek salmon run). Come join us as we kayak Mendenhall Glacier, ride the White Pass Scenic Railway, bike through Skagway, watch the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show, see the salmon run in Ketchikan Creek and Hike & Bike the Ketchikan rain forest!
