Creator's Key Takeaways

This has got to be my new way favorite way to travel. This was so easy.

Make sure that as soon as they open the line to get in line for boarding that you go because then you get to pick your seat.

On the way there, you want to be on the left side because that is the ocean side. If you want to see the mountains, then be on the right side.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Arrive at the Amtrak station early because lines can form out the door.
Get in line for boarding as soon as it opens to secure preferred seating.
Sit on the left side of the Amtrak Cascades train to see the ocean, or the right side to see the mountains.
Check your passport multiple times as it is required at the station, the border, and upon arrival in Canada.

YouTube Video Description

We’re kicking off our Disney Alaska Cruise vlog series with our travel day! Before boarding the Disney Magic in Vancouver, we took the Amtrak Cascades train up from Seattle, Washington to Vancouver, British Columbia — and this video covers that whole day, from the train ride to exploring the city before we set sail. Once we arrived, we checked into the Pinnacle Hotel Harbourfront, grabbed some seriously good local pizza, and spent the rest of the day exploring Vancouver — which happened to be Canada Day, so the city was extra festive. If you’re planning a Disney Alaska cruise, thinking about taking the train from Seattle to Vancouver, or just love travel day vlogs, this one’s for you. This is the first video in our Alaska cruise series — more to come as we set sail! 👉 Subscribe to follow all our cruise vlogs in 2026 plus you never know when we might book another one! 👉 Stick around for more Disney Cruise Line vlogs and Travel content!
