Budget Queen Posted February 25, 2007 #26 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I am more confused then ever about what to do at the lodges. We are on the cruisetour that spends two nights in Denali and one in McKinley. Princess scheduled the Tundra Tour at 6AM. Do I understand that there will not be transportation from the lodge to the transportation center at this time?? Why would they schedule a tour without transportation? Should I change the time to a later one?Also, is it possible to book other tours before arriving at the lodges? In one news release Princess indicated that they would make lodge tours available online in 2007. To date, they don't appear to have done this. Recommendations and suggestions would be very much appreciated! Thanks!:confused: Your transportation is included. The reference was for those on the Natural History tour (transportation would also be provided for this by Princess) who choose to CANCEL this and book either the Tundra Wilderness tour ON THEIR OWN, or use the Park Shuttle buses to go much further into Denali Park. There are several options to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraB2 Posted February 25, 2007 #27 Share Posted February 25, 2007 There is a separate website for the lodges at http://www.princesslodges.com that list and describe the activities available at each lodge. My TA thought that you could only reserve them upon arrival at the lodge. However, as I previously stated, a Princess news release indicated that were going to make them available online in 2007 but to date they are not. Also, has anyone been told that as past passengers the Denal Dinner Theatre is complimentary? My TA told me that but I don't see any references to it anywhere.

40yearcruiser Posted February 25, 2007 #28 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I previously found the princesslodges website, but have not seen any way to pre-reserve any of the activities there. Be sure to post if you find out any more about complimentary tickets to the dinner theater for past passengers. I haven't heard anything about that.

WJB Posted February 26, 2007 #29 Share Posted February 26, 2007 40yrcruiser I too had problems finding activities-I just didn't click deep enough--Go to the above named Princess Lodge link-click on the lodge you are staying then click on activities.

skogler Posted February 26, 2007 Author #30 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I spoke with my agent at Princess about the land tours. He said we will receive a list about 60 days before the cruise. He also said we will be asked about tours during the train ride too. All booking on the land tours are non refundable he added. I will post a note if I hear anything else.

KnoxvilleSam Posted February 26, 2007 #31 Share Posted February 26, 2007 BudgetQueen - In your post you advise contacting "us" and then provide the name and weblink for Alaska Chateau Lodging (with a link to Teresa's Alaskan Car Rental). Are you the owner or part owner of this company? Also, do you have any idea of the cost of a car rental from Teresa's Alaskan Car Rental? I can e-mail them, but thought I'd ask here first. Thanks, Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Sam That is a cut and paste from the Healy Denali Chamber of Commerce, site. I live in New York and have NO BUSINESS connections with ANYONE In Alaska. Get the rental information direct from the vender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
