My husband and I really enjoyed your Alaskan Trip video this morning. It was well shot and the music was beautiful, particularly the mood music as the glacier was calving. It was otherworldly. Thanks for capturing the train ride and views from there. The editing was terrific!
Great video! I went up to Alaska in 2005 on the Norwegian Star and it was truly one of the best experiences of my entire life I'll never forget it. Alaska is absolutely stunning along with Victoria.
Thank you so much for sharing! My husband, son and I hope to go on an Alaskan cruise at some point in our future. Meanwhile, I home educate our son, and your video enhanced our history lesson of Alaska. Loved seeing the totem poles! We remember learning about them when we studied the Kwakiutl Native American Indians of the Pacific Northwest.
Cruising To Alaska Alaska is sometimes thought of as America's last frontier, with the state's rugged mountains covering huge amounts of land, and much of it largely untouched by humans. It is also home to glaciers and wide waterways, referred to as passages, bordering the thick brush of the mountains. It is these waterways that enable cruising to be such an amazing way to see Alaska.
If this is 'boring' then its my kind of boring. My wife and I are taking the 14 night trip to Whittier and return to Vancouver in May....and your videos gives us an inkling of what to expect. We haven't cruised before so we don't know what to expect onboard either but we're looking forward to it all the more for viewing your videos...thanks.
My wife and I are going on this same cruise on August 29 2013 for our 35th anniversary, I loved your video, did you really enjoy this cruise? What program did you use to compose this video? Thanks Paul
We had a really great time. Alaska is a beautiful place, and we thoroughly enjoyed sailing with Princess. We are definitely looking forward to going back someday. I made the title scenes and maps in Blender. The video was edited using Windows Movie Maker.
We are doing this next year on either the ruby, coral, grand or star princess. We had a holiday on the coral and my parents had one on the grand but they were in the Caribbean. What animals can you expect to see and what clothing, especially footwear, do you need?
+Dylan Le Lerre Generally you want to wear shoes that are warm and good for walking. If you're going out on a glacier or spending a long time outside you might want boots. In terms of animals, the most unique things we saw were porpoises, whales, and eagles. One day we watched a pod of orcas swim alongside the ship. That was awesome.
Were u on a princess ship? Im going on a alaska cruis on this 20th for a week and this video made me much more exited ive been on 6 cruises so far all out of state though and this is the first cruise im taking in the states im 14 btw so thx for this vid
To save money, is there a hot plate in the rooms so I can cook up some ramen noodles? Also, I was wondering if the ship would object to me bringing a couple cases of my own beer? Thank you.
Let me make clear though, they do have restaurants that you have to pay, but they do have buffet with a ton of different foods and it is all-you-can-eat.
Given a ratio, how much time did you spend at sea as compared to being in port doing sightseeing? I'm think about a cruise but wondering if I'd go stir crazy being on a boat for too much time.
+eddiebear60 Most days you can get off the boat for about 6 hours. There's one day on this itinerary where you spend the whole day on board looking at glaciers in Glacier Bay. Every other day there's a stop. It's a big "boat", and you can get off a lot, so I wouldn't worry about going stir crazy.
Hey this video is awesome ! We'rr going on our cruise next month definitly looking forward to these sightseeing opportunites. You guys can follow us on our vlogs channel justbeingj3ss
Are you sure you left from Seattle, U.S. flag ships are gone, it would be illegal under maritime Jones Act law to sale a foreign flag crewed and built ship from Seattle to another American State: Alaska? They sail from Canada to Alaska thus avoiding to hire U.S. crews and built ships - maritime lawyer retired. Yes, it's a terrible truth that is kept from the tourists.
Our cruise made a stop in Vancouver, which is how the cruise lines make it an "international" cruise and skirt the Jones Act. We definitely departed from and returned to Seattle.
It was definitely relaxing and low key. Not for everyone, but we loved it. You could always book some more exciting excursions, but with my wife in a boot with a freshly-sprained ankle that wasn't an option for us.

Cruising To Alaska

It is these waterways that enable cruising to be such an amazing way to see Alaska.
Wonderful video and great music.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Everything was filmed with a Canon S95.
Great Video ! Lots of memories:) Sure was a fun trip, we were there in 2010 !
If this is 'boring' then its my kind of boring. My wife and I are taking the 14 night trip to Whittier and return to Vancouver in May....and your videos gives us an inkling of what to expect.

Wow. Great footage.. Awsome trip. Blessings
Going in about 2 weeks, it will be my 8th cruise
My wife and I are going on this same cruise on August 29 2013 for our 35th anniversary, I loved your video, did you really enjoy this cruise?

CV thanks. Sounds great. At least we live near a Clark's so boot will be no problem.
The salmon bake at the lodge sounds kind of fun, I guess.
Thanks for sharing
Great video leaving on 2weeks.
You must be so proud :)
Were u on a princess ship? Im going on a alaska cruis on this 20th for a week and this video made me much more exited ive been on 6 cruises so far all out of state though and this is the first cruise im taking in the states im 14 btw so thx for this vid

My parents went on a cruise. They have food for you, all you can eat. It's included in the price of the cabin. :-)
Let me make clear though, they do have restaurants that you have to pay, but they do have buffet with a ton of different foods and it is all-you-can-eat.

Nice job on the video, but frankly the trip looked pretty boring.

It's not boring at all. It's beautiful.
