Loved our HAL Cruisetour. Personally, I prefer land first. While you have plenty of time in each land destination, there is still a schedule to meet to get from one place to another. The time on the ship is yours 24/7 to do as you please. I just find it more relaxing to do land first then relax on the ship. Also, highly recommend Whittier. It's an amazing place that's totally cut off from everywhere. Only way in by car or train is thru a long tunnel (which cars and trains share). As far as I know, it's the only place on earth where all the permanent residents of the town live in the same building. Great job with the videos. Love watching them.
We did 26 days this year. Wonderful! 3 days Vancouver, 3 days HAL ship, 10 days HAL land tour (Yukon like you did last year), 3 days Seward on our own, 7 days NCL back to Vancouver. Whew! If money were no object, I could have turned around and done it all again. It was that amazing.
Alisa, you described it perfectly. We did a HAL Land & Sea from Vancouver back in Aug 2022. LOVED it. Was not on my husbands bucket list but now he can't wait till we go back. Love watching your vlogs! Harriet in PA
Such an informative video! I am already booked on a 14 day round trip Holland America Line cruise out of Vancouver. No land, just relaxation on a nice long cruise!!
Just came home (9/16/24) from a land and sea tour in Alaska with Holland America and I wanted to share with you that we had Dave Yekell as our host. When we met him in Whitehorse I felt as though I was seeing family : ) when I first saw Dave there! Because, I had watched your videos before going and remembered him from one of your adventures to Alaska. He wanted me to tell you he is doing well and that he had his hip surgery in March. It has been hard and he is now home getting PT to regain his strength and improve his gait. Dave says "hello!" He is returning to Alaska in March '25.
Awe that is great to hear. Isn’t Dave a joy of a person, we absolutely love him. That is so cool that you remembered him from watching our videos, and felt as if you already knew him. That is the best pay off for what we do, and we love to hear it. Well we hope you enjoyed your land & sea experience as much as we did! May god bless and safe travels to you!
I can definitely see what you're saying about the open versus protected waters. However, ironically, we went out of Vancouver last year, and I had more sea sickness than our cruise we just got back from out of Seattle. Seattle had some movement for sure. I strongly recommend sea sickness bands for anyone who tends to be affected by ship movement.
We finally did an Alaska cruise last year and it was amazing. Having watched your excursions videos I knew we wanted to fish in Ketchikan because my hubby loves fishing It was amazing, we did a pre-cruise stay in Seattle and it was just okay. I have to say that I wasn’t going to watch your Alaska videos this year because I just didn’t think they would be worth it since we just went. I couldn’t find anything else to watch so I clicked on one…OMG, then I binge waited them and I am convinced that I want to do the exact same itinerary next! Great job and Sophia (?- hope I got her name right) is just awesome and you are wonderful with her.
We had an Alaskan cruise booked during the pandemic. It was cancelled so we flew to Anchorage, rented a car, and did a road trip. It was great! We didnt do Hatchers Pass but did Matanuska Glacier, Seward including the Kenai Fjords cruise, and Denali.
We did the combo with Alaska early last year. It was great - 12 days. Princess cruise line from Anchorage to Vancouver. On land we saw Denali, Fairbanks and then Copper River. Took a catamaran from Valdez to Whittier where we boarded the ship. The transfer was incredibly easy. Great trip and would love to do it again.
Love your video. Thank you for sharing. I am booking a Royal cruise in 2026 out of Seward. It’s my first solo adventure. I am trying to decide what month to go or what to do before my cruise. Whether to rent a car and explore Talkeetna and Denali or to do a land tour. What are your thoughts? I am looking at spending 5-6 days before my cruise.
So for the princess hotel in the town of Healy Right outside of Denali.What you said about exclusivity is not true you can stay there and you do not not need to be part of a cruise or a special group during the main season or the offseason. I have on several occasions.
We're sailing to Alaska on the Bliss on May 17, 2025, our 45th anniversary. First cruise to Alaska for us! We've been on 7 other NCL cruises and loved them all
@@mimikarenbryant7325 I would love to try either of them, but they are a little too pricey for us, plus, I had $500 cruise next to put toward this cruise
We love Alaska too. We've been twice so far. We drove 1000 miles in a rental after our Celebrity cruise last year. We left from Vancouver. The first time and our first cruise was on Royal Caribbean in 2001 in an Inside room. We left from Seward. We are booked on Royal in 2025 from Seattle. It never gets old! We are going to Sitka next year I'm wondering if you have recommendations for an Excursion????
Are you interested in going to Katmai NP/Brooks Falls? Or maybe Lake Clark Clark NP to see the brown bears? I feel the same way about visiting Alaska every year now that I'm retired. We've cruised there 4 times, all on HAL with 3 being 7 days (2 northbound Vancouver and one RT Seattle). Last year did 14 day SEPT. So wish list now includes sailing months we haven't done yet, such as May, which we will do 14 day in 2025. Also on list are trying Princess, Viking, Cunard, Celebrity, and Carnival in Alaska, doing land trip where we fly in and rent car, doing Alaska and Hawaii combos (Fire and Ice), possibly do cruise/land combo, and the big gun (big dream) is Katmai NP with overnight stay in lodge (requires float plane or boat) so we can see the brown bears at Brooks Falls!!
Great overview! I'm booked with my daughter for the 10-day land/sea with HAL next May. I'm so excited. I cruised 1x many years ago (Caribbean), but AK has been a dream. We added a day in Anchorage in case of flight issues - is the Hatchers Pass ATV tour doable in one day? Also, does your large checked suitcase go to Denali or do they keep that until you board the ship? Thanks!
Living in the Vancouver area we have sailed to Alaska several times out of Vancouver and love the inside passage. What is your favorite month to sail to Alaska?
Girl, I am right there with you. I took my first cruise ever to Alaska in 2019 the month of June. I think it was the 22nd through anyway it was like we left I think on June 22 Seattle on the Norwegian Bliss and it was my pastors 60th birthday and we were celebrating. It was a ministry that I was part of and he invited all the partners for his 60th birthday. We had the whole entire 11th deck, and we have two years to plan for it so we chose to do the Haven. They only had four that were available. The two front ones and the two back ones and we got one of the back after Haven because I done a lot of research a lot and they said that Alaska that definitely get balcony if anyway possible do the Haven you would not regret it and believe you mean we did not regret. We had plenty of time to save for it so experiencing the first ever and then doing the Norwegian bliss in 2019. Let me just say it has been extremely difficult to do a balcony and our second cruise that we did to Alaska we did the Haven, if you’ve never done it at least one time experience it at least one time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ but I can tell you I fell in love with Alaska and I’ll tell you what I did October 2023. I was gonna do a cruise at the beginning of the season and then one at the end and I decided to do a two week back to back because I’m on the East Coast and to fly all the way to the West Coast, let’s just say with airfare and then the hotel I got another week to Cruise! And in May they just passed I did a three week back to back same itinerary but it gives you an opportunity to be able to really enjoy and not feel like you have to cram everything in and I can tell you if you’ve never done Wings to the Tula Lodge and the five glaciers from Juno you leave out of Juno oh my goodness that excursion I’ve been to Alaska now 10 times since my first trip in 2019 they’ve all been on the bless out of all the excursions I’ve been on that one is the crown on top of the cake and I actually loved it so much. I did that excursion the first week on the ship and, I was gonna do it. I cleared off my calendar from all the excursions I had planned and I was going to go again the second and the third week but they didn’t have anything available on the second week but the third week they did and I just booked it directly through Wings airway, and I can tell you I saved a lot of money by going through them directly, but they have a website on Facebook and man I got to meet Hans the bear. I can tell you that is the excursion of a lifetime but when I went like I said I went like the very first week of May, it may have been the very end of April. I was on the ship till the end of May but it was definitely I love Alaska.
Pros of North- and South- bound (Voyage of the Glaciers, Princess). Both visited Glacier Bay. Northbound had an afternoon in College Fjord, which has many glaciers close together. This fjord is close to Whittier, where Princess docks. Southbound had Hubbard, as seen in several of EECC Alaska series of videos. If I had to pick Glacier Bay or either College Fjord or Hubbard, I would skip Glacier Bay. I love both the big or the multiple glaciers. … This is for those considering what to do. We also took the railroad from Anchorage to Fairbanks (12 daylight hours through beautiful nature). We were time limited, so no time at Denali. But we did see Mt Denali (including the top) for several hours in the morning. Even limited time in Alaska is better than no time. It may turn in to many returns. I’ve been fortunate to cruise there 5 times, with no repeat itineraries and different cruise lines: Disney, Princess, and NCL. … An Alaskan cruise or time in Hawaii are my favorite vacations.
Hello, does an Alaskan cruise from Seattle/Vancouver provide a good chance to see Northern Lights? Or do I have to do the cruisetour (land) for any chance to see them?
Excellent and informative video! Just wanted to check… if the cruise departs from Seattle and docks in Victoria, Canada, wouldn’t you still need a passport? Thanks!
I absolutely love yawls channel. I’m down in Wood from Richmond, Virginia, and it would be kind of cool if you had the time and just a ballpark figure it doesn’t have to be to the penny to kind of give an idea of what some of these things would cost approximately just so that People would have an idea of a budget and kind of decide OK would rather do a bunch of little things or do one big thing because I know the Wings airway, Juneau, going to the lodge which you get a full meal which is unbelievable and the salmon you don’t even know you’re eating fish! But I know that if you go through the ship, you’re gonna pay a lot more by going through Wings Airways directly I saved $200
Not sure about your comment that a Seattle departure would work for those without a passport. As you noted, every cruise is required to visit a foreign port at least once on each cruise. Not sure if you would be allowed on the cruise without a passport. At a minimum, I imagine you would have to remain on board during the Canadian port of call. We took a land-sea trip on Princess a number of years back ... flew into Anchorage ... took the train for the land portion ... boarded the Sapphire in Whittier ... cruised south through the inside passage, visiting the ports you mentioned. The foreign port of call was a token transit through Canada ... dock in Vancouver ... off the ship and onto a bus for the trip to the airport to catch our flight to Denver. Not sure I would even count that as a visit to Canada. Still ... we had to get passports for the trip.
@@EECCTravels That was our experience. We had to get passports even though our only encounter with Canada was the bus ride from the ship to the airport for our trip home.
If you leave and return to the same port in the USA it is the same as going to the Caribbean in that no passport is required. But if you take a one way cruise or leave from Vancouver then a passport is needed.

@@PhillProbst it’s the same as sailing to the Caribbean. Those are foreign countries and no passport is needed. Definitely recommend but not required.
If you take a one way cruise and fly in or out of Canada then you definitely need a passport.
@@EECCTravels That was our experience. We had to get passports even though our only encounter with Canada was the bus ride from the ship to the airport for our trip home.
Alaska
What was the name of 1st cruiseline to Alaska?
Think i missed something.... has Jason been missing for several weeks? What's he up to?
Not a cruiser. Is it more expensive than a cruise to do land only?
Questions I have questions for you about this kind of trip. Which is the best email to connect with you? Facebook? Directly??
Email me please at alisa@eecctravels.com. Thanks!
Thank you
how do they let you cruise through Canada like that?
If you leave and return to the same port in the USA it is the same as going to the Caribbean in that no passport is required. But if you take a one way cruise or leave from Vancouver then a passport is needed.

I cleared off my calendar from all the excursions I had planned and I was going to go again the second and the third week but they didn’t have anything available on the second week but the third week they did and I just booked it directly through Wings airway, and I can tell you I saved a lot of money by going through them directly, but they have a website on Facebook and man I got to meet Hans the bear. I can tell you that is the excursion of a lifetime but when I went like I said I went like the very first week of May, it may have been the very end of April. I was on the ship till the end of May but it was definitely I love Alaska.
