Curious as to what the price quoted to you for the zip line and Jaguar Center. We are on the March 30 Princess Coral Cruise and am interested in the Center and the zip line

Thank you both for your information and sound advice. I will make sure we are back in plenty of time!

Hi,

We are trying to do some excursion planning, but not to sure based on the Itinerary. This is for a Princess Alaskan cruise. It states arrival time 6am and departure time 8:15 pm for Skagway. How do these times affect my 'excursion' time? Is 6 am when they will let us get off the boat? Or are we to plan on at least an hour from the arrival time listed? I would appreciate any answers on how this works. We are wanting to rent a car and do our own thing. But need to plan accordingly. Thanks fellow cruisers for any feedback!

We would like to go to Alaska in May of 2019 for our 50th anniversary, heard of inside passage and glacier cruises are they two different cruises? Did you book your flight to Seattle through princess

LilGuy24 - The cruises called "Inside Passage" via Princess Cruises can include Victoria, Skagway, Juneau, and the Glacier National Park scenic tour OR the Misty Fjords. I am sure other cruise lines have similar options. We are going in June for the first time to Alaska, and decided on The Glacier Park, as it had more rave reviews; although, given a do over, I would try to find a cruise that has both Park and Fjords included.

I can definitely relate mountain mama! I was just in Alaska last summer, did a cruise tour and did a 2 Tours in a couple ports. Did white water rafting one evening then the next morning had to be up at 4:30am and did a 12 hour day in denali. When in Alaska it seems my energy level is unlimited and I am invincible. If I can do something else besides the kroschel tour then I will do it :)

That must be all the fresh air and lots of daylight!!! Glad you had a blast. I am arranging car rental, ferry crossing, and such right now, but was wondering about what time we get off the boat in the morning in Skagway. It says 6 am online for arrival, but how long before they let us off? I need to know to set up all my reservation times and figured you might remember from your trip. Thanks for answering.

Hi! I am headed to Alaska inside passageway on Princess Ruby in June and was looking at doing the Kroschel Wildlife Refuge after arriving at the Skagway Port, but was wondering if there is a way to also go to Chilkat Preserve or Emerald Lake - or are those two in a completely different direction(s)? It looks like we have 14 hours available to us in Skagway and the KW Refuge tour is only 6 and half hours. Any advice or information on doubling tours back to back would be greatly appreciated. (And yes, I know it makes for a long day, but I am young and in good shape and I am used to it!).
