Alaska Cruise Vacation Guide

An Alaska cruise will totally blow you away. It really is the vacation of a lifetime.

I've helped countless people plan their Alaska cruises, and time and time again, these people have told me the same thing - their Inside Passage cruise actually exceeded their expectations.

So just what makes vacations on Alaskan cruises so special?

You can sail through steep, misty fjords, their walls covered with lush vegetation and seemingly endless waterfalls.

You can cross streams so filled with salmon you could literally step from one fish to another.

You can hike through virgin temperate rainforest, looking out over enormous ice fields.

You can see whales. Bears. Dall sheep. Bald eagles.

And, most of all, you can relax and take in the most breathtaking scenery that you'll ever experience.

Working in travel and having traveled extensively, I have seen a lot of amazing and beautiful places.

But there is no place else I have visited that has had such a profound impact on me - I truly fell in love with this place.

Through this site, I'll take you on a virtual Alaskan cruise:

• I'll show you the astounding beauty and serenity of Glacier Bay National Park.
• You'll see the jaw-dropping alpine vistas of Juneau Alaska.
• You'll explore the quaint shops and rich native culture of Ketchikan Alaska.
• You'll travel to the majestic Mt. McKinley in Denali National Park.

There is something magical about this region and its affect on those who are fortunate enough to travel there.

In the days before the Internet, your travel agent would help you to plan a special vacation, giving your personalized advice on the best things to see and do.

Yet as the large web-based booking portals have come to dominate the market, that personal, one-on-one relationship with a knowledgeable travel agent has been lost.

That's exactly why I created this site - to allow you to access the type of personal, insider information and advice you would receive from a travel agent.

I believe that the details of a vacation are what make it truly memorable.

That's why on this site you'll find information and advice such as:

• my favorite shore excursion
• my pick for the best AK cruise line and best cruise ship
• my suggestions for what you absolutely MUST pack
• which Alaskan cruise lines passengers picked as their favorites.
• the one inland tour you really should take
• the one AK cruise destination you really shouldn't miss

Most of all, I created this site in order to share with you this place which is so special to me, a place I'm sure you'll fall in love with too.
