Thank you for the review of the Carnival Splendor & the ports. Did Guys have the new Burger?

We just returned from Alaska as well. We did a Princess cruise. They have access to Glacier National Park and bring a naturalist on board to explain everything we saw. To say it was wonderful is an understatement. Honesty if you want to go to Alaska on a cruise do it. Though you still can not see it all. It is well worth it!! We are planning to go back.

Thanks for that information on the catamaran. Where do you schedule that at?.

Amyl - there is a catamaran excursion that takes you a lot closer to the face of the glacier. We’re planning to do that in August.

What excursion in Tracy Arm Fjord did you do? You mentioned get off the ship, I don’t show any excursions on my planner for it and I would like to research. Thank you.

Thanks for your review. Don't agree that Carnival is the only way to see Alaska
