North To Alaska

Recently my husband and I had the opportunity to cruise the Inside Passage on Royal Caribbean cruise line. Being a travel agent for 15 years with Morris Murdock I have found it has opened my eyes to a whole world of interesting places and Alaska is definitely one of them. It's absolutely breath taking beautiful with the glaciers nearly surrounding you, interesting ports stepping you back in time and wildlife sightings of an occational whale, sea otters and bear.

We flew into Seattle and then made the 3 1/2 hr Quick Shuttle transfer up to Vancouver, British Columbia where we had an overnight stay before boarding the beautiful Serenade of the Seas the next morning. Check in was quick and simple and we were anxious to board this stunning ship with a glass staircase in the centrium and unforgettable panoramic views that would ensure our best view of what Alaska has to offer. The crew was friendly and helpful as we settled in, the food was delicious with so many dining options and the accommodations were, well very accommodating!

Entertainment onboard was non stop but I think our favorite activity was taking the scenicWhite Pass Railway on a vintage style parlor train car over trestles and tunnels, and past gorges and waterfalls in the September. I didn't exactly plan for a fall foliage trip but this was definitely a bonus! Hubbard Glacier was also incrediable to view since I've never been so close to hear and see glaciers calving.

An Alaska cruise or cruisetour should be a must in anyones travel log and hopefully I can guide you to making your experience as enjoyable as mine was.

The opposite happens during third quater when customers are just getting back to the daily grind and leaving summer behind.

Now is the time to book a trip for October, November and December (non-holiday.)
