Default Alaskan Cruise

Hi there,
First time cruiser coming up early August on NCL. (round trip - Alaska)

A) Any recommedations for excursions??
(There are so many too choose from)

B) Is it better to book through NCL or on your own when arriving in port??

C) Any recommendations of shows to see/things to do that should not be
missed??

D) How is the food in La Bistro??

E) Is it worth booking a honeymoon package??

Thanx all,
Rich

ps. I'm sure I'll have more questions to follow :)

You need to look over the shore excursion list and narrow down your interests.
There are just too many excellent tours to recommend. I never book ship
excursions myself and it is very easy to book direct in Alaska. BUT have plans
and reservations in place BEFORE you leave. Time is too short to wait and
decide when in port- also very little selection will be left. Budget fully-
top choices are glacier helicopter landings and glacier dog sledding.

Default Alaskan Cruise


Hi. I'm a first time Cruiser. I had expected it to be "special" and it
WAS. Magical is the key word. There were 5 family members. We were on
the Dawn Princess and enjoyed every minute of it. We had good weather
and were treated wonderfully. I'm afraid we are "hooked".

eacord

You sailed on a very nice ship,was on the DAWN PRINCESS twice,and each
one was great,but your first cruise is always the very best.so now you
are hooked like we are,going on our 43rd.
