Creator's Key Takeaways

It is beautiful. All of the glaciers we stop at, the ship will spin around so that everybody gets a chance to see them.

It was a really nice day. You can certainly see by the footage that Glacier Bay is amazing.

I would absolutely recommend a trip to Alaska that includes going and seeing Glacier Bay because it is magnificent.

It is very cold, and you need to make sure you have clothes that will handle that kind of cold so that you can be out on deck actually seeing this.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring warm clothes to be out on deck to see the glaciers.
If you have a balcony, you can go out briefly and come back in to get warm.

YouTube Video Description

Hello Travelers, I boarded the Holland America Cruise line’s Koningsdam on September 10, 2022. This video shows day five of our cruise, where we visit Glacier Bay. This is a sea day like no other. Very early in the morning while it was still dark outside, we entered Glacier Bay. I watched the sun rise from the Crows Nest with my coffee. It was so beautiful! We visit several glaciers, and luckily the fog had lifted enough that we were actually able to see them. It was a wonderful day, and we had naturalists aboard that would tell us about what we were seeing as well. Please like this video and subscribe to my channel to make sure you don’t miss future content. I have more videos for this cruise, as well as future cruises booked through the rest of this year and beyond. Thanks for watching!
