Connoisseur Escorted Tour Directors

[nukesubsailor]

We just got home from our second Princess 15 day Connoisseur Escorted cruise/tour.  It was fabulous with good weather and an outstanding tour director, Denali Deb Whalen.

Our first such tour was in 2014 and we had a great tour director then named Jack Curtiss.

I highly recommend taking this tour and if you get either of these tour directors you will really enjoy the land tour.  They both are very knowledgeable about Alaska and just plain fun to be with.  Even long motor coach rides between lodges were fun as the tour directors educated us on the areas we were traveling through.  They even handed out high quality candies and water.

It was on our first tour that we learned the difference between a bus and a motor coach and never to insult a motor coach by calling it a bus.  A bus has no toilet.

Glad to hear you had a great trip!

I hope you will provide a trip report for your connoisseur tour.  Doesn't have to  be 10pg, but an outlines of your daily itinerary and highlights.  People often ask specifically about this tour and there are few write-ups.
