First Timers

This will be our first cruise and our first time to Alaska. We are going the end of July on Carnival Spirit. Any suggestions extremely beneficial.

Re: First Timers

Suggestions??? Most important is to look closely at a shore excursion list and narrow down your intersts what you wish to do in port. I strongly recommend having plans and reservations made in advance. Hopefully you are including a land tour??? A good idea since you are already there and have spent considerable time and money getting to Anchorage. :) Southbound or north??? Ports?? Just too many choices for Alaska!

Re: First Timers

Hi Kim,
I too am planning for our first Alaska Cruise this year and I've found a lot of good tips in the CM article:

We're not going until Aug, so may-be when you return, you can give me a few good tips :-)
