10. Last... but certainly not least... the Seafood. Fantastic seafood, and all you can handle. Enjoy a Sourdough Breadbowl full of seafood chowder.


Top 10 things to do when Cruising to Alaska

1. Ketchikan: Seafood Chowder served in a bread bowl at the marina. It claims to be the "best in town". But take it from a seafood expert... it's the best seafood chowder I have ever put in my mouth!

2. Ketchikan: Tour the crab boat once featured on the Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch. What an experience!

3. Ketchikan: Hiking

4. Juneau: Mendenhall Glacier

5. Juneau: Whale watching tour

6. Juneau: Deep Sea Fishing, King Salmon or Halibut

7. Skagway: Take the train up to the pass.

8. Glacier Bay: Grab yourself a cup of hot coco, sit on the deck of the ship, and listen to the National Park Ranger tell you about our beautiful glaciers, and help you spot wildlife.

9. Denali National Park: Don't miss your opportunity to see this majestic sight. Go in June for the best weather.

10. SUMMER SOLTICE! June 21 is the longest day of the year in Alaska. We boast more than 20 hours of daylight around this time... and we stay awake for every second of it! Summer activities galore in the "Land of the Midnight Sun" baseball games at 10pm without lights, golf, hiking, and more!
