    Thank you for tuning in my friends! I have another new Alaska cruise series coming later this summer of 2024 on a different cruise line. This footage is from our May cruise all combined. Happy New Year!

      Enjoyed the video but m😂y advice: DON’T DO ALASKA ON A BIG ASS SHIP.
      We did Alaska a year ago on Celebrity Eclipse and never had an issue with getting on or off the ship. Plus, our captain sailed us soooo close to Hubbard Glacier. It was the highlight of the cruise.
      Sorry, Dev, Mendenhall is a sorry second place.
      But I agree that Alaska should never be missed. We sailed in June and had great weather but those 10pm sunsets and 4am sunrises are something else!
      My last suggestion is to sail from Vancouver as you’ll be a day closer to Alaska, plus it’s a cool ass city and port.

    My little autistic kiddo loves your voice. I watch your videos and he must have heard you speak bc now he will watch the same video over and over replaying the same part. He loves hearing you say “ Good afternoon my friends hope you are having an awesome fantastic day”Over and over and over again just those 10 seconds on repeat. Racking up the views for you lol

    It is very nice to see that you got access to Coastal Kitchen every evening as well as having both a kettle and coffee-maker in your room. Most cabins do not have any such amenities and one has to go to the self-service beverage-stations and/or the Diamond lounge to get hot drinks on demand.

    I did an Alaska cruise years ago with Holland America, mid size ship so it could go in the inner passage. A very elegant cruise line. We Also saw wild life and spectacular views. Their main dining room had beautiful food, we didn't need specialty dining ( no I'm not being paid lol) That just happened to be the line we took for Alaska. I really enjoyed this video, it felt like I was back on an Alaskan cruise. Brilliant job! I will subscribe. Thank you!

    You’re very fortunate to have seen so many whales. We sailed on the Quantum last August and despite spending a lot of time looking, we never saw a whale. We had the same weather as you in mid August and also found the food in the Windjammer to be awful. In Juneau we rented a car from Turo that was right at the parking garage at the port. We drove the 20 minutes to Mendenhall Glacier. We practically had the place to ourselves until our walk back when all of the tourist buses arrived. If you go back to Nugget Falls/Mendenhall Glacier, I highly recommend renting a car for a few hours. It's nice watching your video and reminiscing about our trip.

    Circa minute 13:50, how early did the Fitness Centre open on that ship? How early did you go that morning? I have found that gyms are rarely crowded on cruise-ships, but you can easily find even fewer people at several hours of the day e.g., breakfast time and certainly mid-afternoon to late afternoon. The Solarium also tends to be very quiet and convenient early mornings and early evenings. Every day, going from the gym to one of the Solarium's heated Jacuzzis is a special treat!

  • @brentshuffler1234

    Circa minute 4:00, as you mentioned a Junior Suite, I was reminded of the Loyalty Programme, which gives Pinnacle guests a complimentary cruise at every 350-cruise-point milestone from the 1,400-point mark. Where are you guys in the tiers of the Crown & Anchor Society? It is very exciting to see how many extra values, discounts, and complimentary items are offered even from the first level (Gold).

    Taking a one-way cruise will avoid that longer crossing to Seattle (avoiding most of that rocky ocean). Smaller ships will get you into more ports and longer stays. I hope your 2024 adventure takes you to new places. Protip: renting a car in Juneau and Skagway is super easy and gives you the freedom to explore those towns away from crowds. Nice video, thanks! I'm ready for my May return to Alaska!
