I guess I could say, that no matter what package or
cruise you choose for Alaska, at least you got to go. But I will not 100% say, that choosing the
cheapest is best ! When maybe another
$100pp could give you more value !
Don’t get me wrong … I’ve been to Alaska 13 times. So if I found a price, that save me $500 pp,
I might take it (?) … And probably have, which is why I’ve been so many times.
But most folks think, they will only go once.
If that’s the case … Wouldn’t you be upset, if you missed
…
1)
One of the main ports of call ?
2)
A main “land based tour” while traveling
Fairbanks to the ship ?
3)
Didn’t see one of the main glaciers ?
4)
Had such a short time in port, that you didn’t
even have time to visit the port itself (unless maybe you plan 2 tours that day
… which is a better choice !)
Remember, not all travel agents have been to Alaska ! And if have, lucky to have been once, right
? And it would be a “needle in a hay
stack” if an agent at the cruise line has been !
Don’t be cheap on your Alaska … But of course, you don’t
have to pick the most expensive either.
You need to “learn” where the value is … What you don’t want to miss …
The important parts of the puzzle. It
can be done economically, if you are willing to put in the time.
Start with getting some education from someone who has
been there many times !
It's to your disadvantage, if you just call an agent and say ... "How much is it ?" ... Or ... "What will air & everything cost me ?". It's more to it than that. Alaska is a bigger pictures. It's not like going to the Caribbean & just pick one.
You want to give this task "more time" and value ! Once you get some education, just insight like airfare, you can look up on your own, till you're ready to make a decision on the package. The cruise or the package comes 1st ! Do yourself justice !
