We are planning on taking an Alaskan cruise in June. Any recommendations on cruise lines, things to do etc. Thanks

Re: Alaska Cruise Anyone?
My friend's Mom just booked her trip (I think for June, too). I can find out what line she's cruising, if you would like

Re: Alaska Cruise Anyone?
Thanks Claud I am sort afraid that it is really a 'retiree thing'.
Right now it looks like we may have a good size group 12 - 16 people going so we would be our own group. But you know how that goes everyone is interested until they have to be serious about it.

Re: Alaska Cruise Anyone?
Fran I went gosh about 7 years ago on Holland America. It is sooooo beautiful and yes there were tons and tons of retirees. If you are goin with a big group that you will proably be ok. Just make sure they know you want to sit together at meals, so you don't get stuck at a retiree table.
It is so beautiful though...breath taking!

Re: Alaska Cruise Anyone?
We went 2 1/2 years ago on Princess and it was great. It was a mixed crowd, definitely not all retirees. All different ages. However, unlike alot of cruises, Alaskan cruises dont have as much nightlife. I mean, they have shows and late dinners and all but it wasnt a clubbing till 3am kind of cruise. I think most people were pooped out from all the amazing stuff there is to do during the day. There's a certain kind of energy that you get from the crowd on a trip to Alaska that I've never experienced before. I think, like us, people are just blown away by how awesome a place it really is. Excursions are expensive, but in Alaska they are so worth it. Let me know if you want more info.

I went on Royal Carribean about 6yrs ago. Alaska is amazing. FH and I were just talking about wanting to go next year.
