This was actually a cruisetour. Off the Beaten Path beginning in Fairbanks, AK ending in Vancouver. To sum it up in a few words: beyond what we imagined, planned, or expected! Interior Alaska is a beautiful vast wilderness and Princess is a well oiled machine. Worth every minute and dime we spent. The lodges were all beautiful in their own way & getting there was half the fun. Train, buses, & catamaran were all enjoyable and journeys in their own right. Transportation by Princess was seamless. Guests coming and going from all different directions whether starting their cruisetour or ending their cruisetour. The most frustrating was the Princess app on land. On land, the app makes you feel like the red-headed step-child. Provides no help whatsoever! For the cruise, it's a fantastic tool and will keep you on schedule. Once the cruisetour starts, even if doing land first, the app will not allow you to do anything or change anything on your own. It locks you out and the land portion doesn't appear to record your booked excursions. If you tour late in the season, excursion vendors tend to reduce staff and offer fewer tours. Don't wait to book it! We learned the hard way since the lodges were not able to get in contact with the next lodge timely due to their busyness. The Island was just the right size. Not too small and not too big. The size allowed us to get closer to Marjorie Glacier than most larger ships. Our room steward was very attentive and although it was nearing the end of the season, we were treated like it was the first week. We enjoyed every single meal in the main dining room. We did the Bourdeaux so we could change dining times based on our activities. We never waited longer than 5 minutes to be seated. The popular bar was the Wheelhouse which featured several bands each night. The comedian had 2 shows near the end of the cruise which was fabulous. The shows in the main theatre were enjoyable but not over the top or of Disney/Broadway caliber. That is one area where Princess could improve a bit. But this tour was Alaska and glacier focused so maybe this or the size of the ship were a factor. It's only our second cruise with Princess. They offered several naturalist talks and a focused theme, "North to Alaska". Overall, we were very satisfied & the entire trip was enjoyable. The staff at the lodges, the drivers, the cruise staff, etc. were all fabulous. We had the best weather for the land portion and seeing Hubbard and Glacier Bay but after that it was normal Alaska drizzly chilly cloudy weather. We didn't book excursions for the ports since we had already been to those before and we wanted to play it by ear and stay in the port or on the ship. We enjoyed doing activities in the ports which were not popular excursions. We did a scavenger hunt from the Klondike Gold Rush Park in Skagway, walked to the Taku fountain and checked for tide pools in Juneau, and walked to the fish ladder and hatchery in Ketchikan. We also focused on trying local foods like spruce ale & cookies, smoked salmon spread, sourdough, king crab, and salmon donuts. We saw plenty of wildlife both on land and from our cruise balcony. And Glacier Bay is a must! Be flexible, dress for anything, and let the journey happen!
