    Y’all are so cute! 💗Your video was very helpful. We are taking an Alaskan cruise in June. So excited!

    I know a lot of people wouldn’t be crazy about being in port for 4 hours, but I like the idea! You have time to sleep in after doing some crazy stuff the previous few days, get your bags ready for disembarkation, get to see the scenery while coming into port. I still think it’s better to stop than to not stop at all! If anything, let it be an incentive for people to visit Canada! I’ve only ever traveled through eastern Canada, but it is very much worth the effort of getting a passport!!!!

    We took a 2 hour pedicab tour. Driver took us to parks, downtown with great stories, Chinatown, peacocks and back to ship. Fun and informative

    My Alaska cruise was unable to stop at Victoria due to high winds so they sent a token small boat in to touch the land.

    Hi guys, this video series was very informative, interesting and enjoyable. Thank you both so much.
    We will be going on this exact cruise next year end of May. We will be bringing our children and grandchildren ranging in ages 14 to 24 yrs. with us. I will encourage all of them to watch this series of Quantum of the Seas! Thanks again so much, happy cruising and stay safe😊🛼🏊🏼‍♂️🎼🛳️

    Just returned from this cruise 2 weeks ago. We packed during the day, and we did a bus excusion. Very informative, but I wish that we had more time in Victoria.
    We live in metro Detroit so we are just 40 minutes from Canada and have visited numerous times. Victoria BC was very different and I look forward to returning soon.

    Great video guys! We feel like we got jipped! 4 hours was not enough, and it was probably closer to 3 hours after finally snagging a taxi. It was such a beautiful Port, we would’ve loved a full day there.

    • @GoodMorningAdventures

      Thanks for watching! A full day in Victoria is so nice! I haven’t gotten to your Victoria video yet, but I’m looking forward to seeing how your short day went.

      Quantum in general was great. But yes, not enough time. We plan on going on Ovation that will give plenty of time in Victoria and not be rushed.

    Loved this video ( I sound like a broken record) and wow amazing info about the whales and the fishermen wharf. I recall your previous Victoria trip and you guys had the most beautiful weather. I think the Jones Act became more of a awareness of its existence during pandemic how dumb it is in certain situations. Jaylynn looked very sad at the end 😂. Can’t wait for new Navigator serie 🫶🏻

    Stopping at one foreign port allows the cruise industry to avoin US labor rules which would force them to pay much higher wages to crew.

    We just did this last sailing of the season and found it to be the WORST itinerary. 1. We lost Ketchikan as a port due to weather (understandable not within anyone's control) so we were only in Alaska for 2 days. 2. When we got to Victoria on a Sunday at 5pm, everything was closed except the nick knack touristy shops.

    • @GoodMorningAdventures

      I’m sorry to hear that. Unfortunately most Alaska cruises only have 3 stops, so if any got cancelled it would really suck. But Victoria is almost a waste of time with how little time you get.

    So she walks you back to the Port? This sounds interesting. We go next month.

    My next year Sept princess majestic cruise will stop by Victoria from 7pm to 11:50 pm . I am speechless. Will stay in the ship for dinner. You will have to clear custom, that's take some time. Does not make sense to get off the ship.

  • @thetravellervision

    Is unfortunately a trick that cruise lines are starting to do it more and more since they need to reach a Canadian port in an Alaskan cruise by Maritime Law. The sad thing is many guests are not reading the hours when booking the cruise and their you go. To find a cruise that really stays 7-8 hours in Victoria is like Scavanger Hunt. When I was working on NCL Jewel in 2016 we where there for 7 hours which was really cool. I wanted to book a cruise for next year as passenger this time and have Victoria also for the good memories but I skip it. Even the travel agent put the arrival time 7 am to 10pm but because I know the trick I find out before booking that was actually 7pm. I recommend to visit Victoria on your own for a day or two. Worth it

    The truth is. Cruiseship must arrive at least one international port for at least for 4 hrs.

    These 2 are right. Victoria is a wasted stop. Whatever cruise line

    Can we just stay in the cruise itself to avoid port of entry or other visas issues ?? Please let me know

    • @GoodMorningAdventures
      @GoodMorningAdventures  2 місяці тому

      You don’t have to get off the ship, but you’re technically still traveling internationally, because you leave US waters, and enter into Canadian territory.

    • @bleumustang6362

      You can stay on the ship. Getting off is optional
