Creator's Key Takeaways

No matter how many times we've come to Alaska and see a glacier, it is still amazing to see a glacier.

I can't say enough about this tour. It's worth it.

It was $3,000 plus tip. That's for a group of eight.

Overall it was a great experience.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a private yacht excursion for a closer, more personal whale-watching experience.
If you have a morning arrival in Juneau, many stores and restaurants may not be open yet.
Split a sourdough donut between two people as they are quite dense.

YouTube Video Description

This Alaska cruise didn’t go as planned. After I had to leave the ship unexpectedly, Jack and Poppy continue the journey on their own — exploring Alaska one incredible day at a time. In this episode, they sail past the stunning Dawes Glacier, then head to Juneau, Alaska for an unforgettable whale-watching yacht excursion, spotting whales up close in one of the most beautiful places in the world. From icy glaciers to wild Alaska wildlife, this episode shows a different side of cruising — and how Jack steps into full single-parent mode while still making the most of this once-in-a-lifetime trip. Thank you for being here and following along with our Alaska cruise adventure.
