  1. I do - which severely limits the excursion opportunities. But in all honestly - I didn't have the bandwidth to fully plan a land tour for them separately, driving was not an option for them, and I got a very good deal for suite-class on this cruise itinerary. All that being said - my thought was that they would spend an afternoon doing a hike or exploring the property, and then on their full day they would do the Mahay's riverboat/jet excursion. They'll spend 2 hours in transportation, but will still have plenty of time in a relaxing manner.
  2. Hi Everyone, I am planning an Alaska Cruise for my parents. I've booked a Cruise and Land Tour via Princess on the Sapphire from July 20 - Aug 1, 2024. I would love to hear people's thoughts on the comments, excursions picked, and if they would swap it out for any other experiences. My parent's do not have any mobility issues, but are also in their 70s and not the most active. They could do a few miles hiking, but would nothing too adventurous and wouldn't want my Mom on uneven terrain for too long. Also, my Mom is vegetarian. Ketchikan - July 22 - 6:00 AM - 2:00 PM Saxman Native Village, Dance Performance & Totem Park via Princess Spend remaining time exploring the town and lunch (Annabelle's vs Alaska Fish House) NOTE: I would love for them to do an easy hike that would allow them to see some scenery and possibly wildlife. In an ideal world, they would do some Bear viewing tour, but those are all 400-1000 bucks, which is out of budget for this port. NOTE #2: I offered for them to do the Misty Fjords Seaplane, and because they're doing the helicopter tour and a boat tour later on, decided against it. I could persuade them if people felt strongly about it Juneau - July 23, - 8:00 AM - 9:00 PM Harv and Marv's Whale Watching Tour - 10:30 AM - 2:30 PM Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Park + Nugget Fall's Rest of time exploring Juneau with Dinner at Tracy's? NOTE: I offered doing Whale Watching + Helicopter here - but they didn't want to pack the day with too many things since it's a long trip. Skagway - July 24 - 7:00 AM - 8:30 PM TEMSCO Glacier Helicopter Tour - one benefit of this is that if it gets canceled due to weather, they could be rescheduled for the Denali Helicopter Tour later on Some other activity? - Klondike Summit/Suspension Bridge? Mt. McKinley Wilderness Lodge (nearest excursion site is Talkeetna?) - July 27 afternoon through July 29 morning Mahay's Riverboat Devil's Canyon Adventure NOTE: I offered doing Talkeetna Air Taxi's flightseeing tour - but I think they want a Helicopter. Not sure what else can really do here Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge - July 29 afternoon - July 31 AM Included Denali Natural History Tour - Upgrade to Tundra Wilderness vs Kantishna Not sure if there's something to fit in July 29 afternoon I appreciate any help or suggestions- thank you!
