mapleleaves Posted June 2, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Hopefully lots of you will be returning soon, wanting to share information about your cruise experience, excursions, activities, vendors, land travel, etc. A report can be one paragraph outlining each port you visited and your activity at each port, OR, it can be a 20 pg report with photos of your cabin, public areas, meals, dailys, activities of each port, and every sight along the way. Or it can be something in between! Whatever you have time for. Please CREATE YOUR OWN THREAD to post your trip report, then paste a link to THIS thread. That way, if people have questions they will post directly to your report. Best to keep this list as an informational tool, not gunked up with questions and comments. It would be helpful if the first line included the SHIP, ITINERARY, DATE, EXCURSIONS, and who travelled ( family with children, a multigenerational trip, active 30 somethings, etc).

new_cruiser Posted July 15, 2018 #24 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I've written a trip report the 17 May 2018 Windstar Star Legend 14-day Wonders of Alaska & Canada cruise. I started it as a sort of live thread on the Windstar Board since it was Windstar's first Alaska cruise in decades. Seward Cruising Kenai Fjords Icy Strait Point Haines Cruising Tracy or Endicott Arm Juneau Sitka Wrangell Cruising Misty Fjords Ketchickan Melakatla Prince Rupert Vancouver The day-by-day trip report that I wrote after returning starts at post #84. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/show...2635721&page=5 (Using the link in the web browser, should bring you to page 5 where post #84 is. I've checked the link in the Android Cruise Critic app. In that case it brings you to page 5 but the app puts less per page so post #84 is on page 9.) For those not familiar with Windstar, Star Legend has a double occupancy capacity is 212 passengers. The ship carried an expedition staff of 6 naturalists to give lectures and go with us on some of the excursions. There were cruising days in Kenai Fjords, Endicott Arm (this cruise, when conditions allow, the ship goes to Tracy Arm) and Misty Fjords. The ship carries zodiacs and kayaks for excursions there. My trip started out with the ocean crossing from Japan to Seward, Alaska so the cruise was 28 days for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
