Alaska land and sea with Holland America

[@BritsAbroadTravelCruise]

What an incredible adventure this looked. Your vlog is so nicely edited, and has so much fascinating scenery and activity in it for only 12 minutes long. It really shows to its best, what amazing travel opportunities that cruise travel can deliver.

Very informative. My wife and I have taken several HAL cruises in the Caribbean and want to try Alaska

I'd highly recommend it. Terrific people and unbelievable landscapes.

Thanks for the video about this vacation. I have a question about luggage. I am assuming, we get to lug it between rail cart, hotel, bus, and then ship?

[@seanjillseatheworld6899]

The luggage is taken care of mostly. You need to put it out early every morning and it arrives at your next room for you.

Hi, can you help me with some info on the land tour part with Holland America tours, I was looking at a 12 day Danali/Yukon cruise/ land tour (Y41). Contacted HA chat line for info regarding what were the inclusions/exclusions of this package, eg, accommodation, meals, coach and rail, as I could not find anything on theier web site. They fobbed me off to a email address for the info, however, that was a dead end as the people at that address had nothing to do with bookings and told me to ring HA, start of the merry-go round. It would be nice to know what out of pocket expenses is involved. Cheers.

No problem. We were on Y41 as well. Basically, it included the transportation and the accommodations. It us on the train, bus and plane. The rooms were not fancy but they were certainly clean and comfortable. Lunch was included on travel days that took most of the day. All other food and beverages were not included. HA did a good job of pointing out decent places to eat and which ones to maybe avoid. Since you can decide for yourself where you are going to eat you can try to keep the prices reasonable. We ended up spending a little more than we were expecting to be honest but mostly because the price of food is relatively high and we picked some "premium" excursions. It definitely will be more than you are used to on a regular cruise. Be aware that there is A LOT of traveling in the land portion. Those days are packed full. HA has done a good job of making sure that you get off to stretch or see something if they can but it still makes for a few long days and you will need to be up early most of those days.

Thanks for your help, gives me some idea of what to expect on the trip. A couple of quick questions.1. Is the acommodation for the first day on arrival. 2. Is brekky included with the hotel acommodation. Cheers.

[@SeanClipston]

@@Dunroamin1952 No breakfast was not included. I highly recommend getting up a little early and going to the snow city cafe near the water. Get the reindeer sausage. We gave ourselves an extra day and rented bikes from the place right next door and cycled the trail along the ocean. Saw 2 moose right there. The accommodation is included and across the street is the glacier bay brewing company. Get dinner there. Sooo good.

[@Dunroamin1952]

Ok thanks for the info. Happy trails.
