Party Teacher Posted February 10, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Is there a list of excursions anywhere specifically for Ketchican, Juneau and Skagway. I'm finding the searching to be overwhelming!!!:confused: Also, I've heard of a packing list on this site. Where can I find that too? Thanks!

grey_eyes Posted February 10, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I've been making my own list based on reasearch from brochures, books, C.C. and T.A recommendations, if you are interested. Just send me your email address. grey_eyes81@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted February 10, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 10, 2009 All the cruiselines have them online. Just look there. It doesn't matter which one, they are all similar and will at least give you an idea. There are also port visitor guides to consider http://www.skagway.com http://www.traveljuneau.com http://www.visit-ketchikan.com Then head to your library and take out Fodor's Alaska, Frommers Alaska, and Alaska by Cruiseship. Port information there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Party Teacher Posted February 10, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Thanks for the replies. BQ - I've been reading Alaska for Dummies which has quite a lot of info in it and I like the layout. It just seems like there's so much more out there to choose from online. Thank you for all your help so far. There will be many more questions until I get this thing completely booked. Thanks in advance for putting up with me!!!

JACH77 Posted February 10, 2009 #6 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Grey Eyes - I would love your list too. JACH77@aol.com Are you doing any independent tours as they are cheaper than the cruise lines. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey_eyes Posted February 10, 2009 #7 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Grey Eyes - I would love your list too. JACH77@aol.com Are you doing any independent tours as they are cheaper than the cruise lines. Thanks I have been booking most of my excursions independantly, because of the recommendations from the people on this board. Although I am booking a few with the cruiseline, this is because they are not offered otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMoney Posted February 10, 2009 #8 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Grey Eyes - I would love your list too. JACH77@aol.com Are you doing any independent tours as they are cheaper than the cruise lines. Thanks Independent tours can be cheaper, they can be longer than their ship equivalents, and they almost always involve much smaller groups. You just have to evaluate on a case-by-case basis.

krogerlady Posted February 10, 2009 #9 Share Posted February 10, 2009 You asked about packing lists....I have three saved. Here they are http://***************/pack_it.htm http://www.independenttraveler.com/packing/ http://www.onebag.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krogerlady Posted February 10, 2009 #10 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Hmmm, the first one got stars, and doesnt look like the good kind. Maybe cruise critic doesnt like that one. Its ***************....maybe you can find it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowglobe Posted February 10, 2009 #11 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Thank you for the packing list links. These seem to be generic travel lists. Does a list exist specifically for cruisers? I have a standard set of things I pack and I am used to traveling very light. I will be on my first large-ship cruise soon and I have the funny feeling that there will be stuff that I need to account for, above and beyond what I usually pack. For a cruise to Alaska, should I bring my own thermos cup? my own fleece throw? :D Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
