Rare Kinkacruiser Posted September 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) We have a 6 day cruisetour after our cruise next May and need to consider what to take for dinner/evening wear. Obviously there will be no formal nights. Is dress similar to the ship - smart/dressy casual or jeans and sweater? Will the nights be chilly in the last week of May?

Hi Anna The chances are that the evenings will be cooler. But it does depend on which stops you are making. If it's McKinley, Denali & Fairbanks then based on our previous cruisetours Denali is apt to be cooler than McKinley. But hey you may have a heatwave going through the area. As far as dress. Both McKinley and Denali have restaurants that are more formal (but still casual) and the other is less formal. Just dress for the weather and you'll be fine. Just to let you know we did book our Alaska as I had mentioned previously. Cruise, 8 day land, 6 day land then cruise back to Vancouver. Another 28 days.

Loonbeam Posted September 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Layers Layers Layers... We didn't do escorted but I don't think that matters for this. Polo and slacks was the most formal I got on land (had one button down shirt, never used it even in the nice restaurant in McKinley). Day wear in Sept was khakis, tee or polo, fleece and jacket if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a nice Alaskan experience ahead for you. Thanks for the tips re clothes at dinnertime. Give Kathleen our regards. Cheers, Anna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
