Thank you so much for the information and your opinion. The cruise from Long Beach on the same day has more ports and is $100 cheaper per person, but I will need additional time off for the drive and the additional cost for parking. This cruise has Maui which I have been to so that’s a bit of a wash. I wonder if it’s worth the effort to go to Long Beach. Hmm.

I understand some people don’t care much about prices and some receive really good offers, especially the casino offers. There’s no right answer so I just want opinions. Before, I consider anything below $50/night before taxes/fees a good deal. I haven’t seen those in a very long time. What do you consider a good deal? I’m looking at an interior room on the Royal Princess on 12/22/2022. It has 9 sea days so I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to be in an interior room, but I’m priced out for anything higher. It is a Christmas/New Year cruise so pricing is usually higher to begin with. 15 days. How much does it have to be for you to consider?

The lady going with me on a cruise to Alaska wants to buy some maple syrup in Victoria to bring back as gifts. We only have 4 hours in port with a 3 hour tour to the Butchart Garden already. Is there a place near port you would recommend to get this? Thanks.
