Creator's Key Takeaways
Prince Rupert is right, it's not Alaska. It's Canada. But, for Virgin Voyages, you need your wearable, your band, and you also need your ID.
If there's something you really want to do, booking your shore excursions early and in advance is important. You actually can't walk in and book this tour.
This entire tour ended up being around 4 hours long between the short trail hike that we did, which is accessible by anyone.

This complete Prince Rupert cruise port guide covers everything you need to know before your Virgin Voyages Alaska cruise stops in Prince Rupert, British Columbia. In this video I share what to know before you get off the ship (yes, Prince Rupert is in Canada, not Alaska), what's directly at the cruise port including the Container Market, Visitor Center, and Cow Bay, and the top things to do in Prince Rupert on a cruise day. I break down the grizzly bear excursion you have to book in advance, why I loved renting e-bikes from the Visitor Center, lunch at Wheelhouse Brewing, the trolley tour option, and the cultural tour I did on my second sailing. I close the video with four fun facts about Prince Rupert most people don't know! 🏔️ Get my FREE Alaska packing list, google map with places at port, tips, and more!! https://christinelozada.com/alaska/ 📝Get on the EMAIL list! https://christinelozada.com/newsletter/ 🎥 See the Alaska PLAYLIST! https://youtu.be/v8Xvq234Alo ***** BOOK YOUR VIRGIN VOYAGES SAILING WITH US ***** 🛳️ Top 10 First Mates out of 30,000+ Virgin Voyages agents Seriously expert advice.
