Creator's Key Takeaways

We absolutely loved our Alaskan cruise in 2021 and we've been thinking about taking another Alaskan cruise pretty much since we got off of the ship.

We definitely recommend choosing a balcony for Alaska.

We have a seven night cruise to Alaska. Of course, we're talking about Alaska. So, what ports are in this cruise? Well, they are Sitka, Alaska, Juno, Alaska, Skagway, Alaska, and then Victoria, British Columbia in Canada.

The main thing is to check your excursions. If you book excursions to Royal Caribbean, there is a box on the description that tells you what you should bring for your excursions.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Choose a balcony for Alaska to enjoy the scenery from your private space.
Use cruisecompete.com to get bids from travel agents for the best deal.
Check excursion descriptions for packing recommendations.
Bring layers, rain jacket, comfortable shoes, and waterproof hiking shoes for unpredictable weather.
Bring binoculars for wildlife viewing from your balcony.
