A Perfect Day in Glacier Bay! Princess Alaska Cruise

Seeing Glacier Bay has been on our bucket list for a long time, so we absolutely loved getting to experience it for ourselves! This was such a beautiful day where we spent hours sitting outside and just taking it all in. The beauty of Southeast Alaska is hard to describe and sitting there in silence, watching the glaciers, hearing them crack and calve, and just staring at the mountains that surround you, is an experience we will never forget.
We ended our day with dinner at the Crown Grill and then more karaoke!
What an amazing day on board the Royal Princess!

Glacier Bay is one of our favorite memories. We stayed on deck from dawn till we afternoon watching wildlife, glaciers, and all the scenic views. We saw whales, orcas, mountain goats, bears, otters, seals, and puffins. We also were lucky to see and hear a large calving of the ice and several smaller ones…so exciting. Our whole trip we saw whales daily…it was in September so maybe there was more activity. Hoping yo return someday. We went on Holland America. We would only go on cruises that gave you the full glacier bay experience. The onboard naturalists were amazing!

Yes, there are certain times of year when the wildlife are more active and present. I saw whales on the last day, but no other whales.

As a resident of Michigan, I have great admiration for the glaciers that gave us these fabulous lakes we get to enjoy and brag on. Sad to see them disappearing. One of our coolest experiences was on an Amtrak train traveling from our middle coast to the west coast. Being a party of 3 we were joined by the one of the on board National Park representatives for lunch prior to their exiting the train. Memorable conversation.

Finally get to say that we are going to Alaska next month! 42 days and counting! These VLOGs have been invaluable, can't believe that we will be experiencing the same sights albeit on the Majestic Princess. What a way to experience our first ever cruise going on a ship to Alaska! we feel so lucky! I am nervous about the sea sickness so seeing Sherri still be able to experience all the things despite sea sickness at the beginning gives me hope. Thank you so much for sharing! Hello from Melbourne, Australia!

@@shehzadalani5238 We went in August, Glacier NP was amazing. Once onboard we upgraded our inside room to a balcony room and I can't rate it enough! We got to see the glacier up close from the comfort of our room. One of the nights we even got to see the Aurora from the ship deck. It was our first cruise and can honestly say that I would probably do that one again.

Great video. And you’re right, to see the glaciers in real are much more spectacular then on photos and film. We’ve done an Alaska cruise in May with the Disney Wonder. We got to Dawes Glacier. It was only one, but it was also breathtaking. And there were so many blue icebergs around the ship. And when I saw those deckchairs, with the blue pillows I immediately thought of deck 4 of the Wonder. We sat there a part of the glacier day. Looking forward to te rest of your cruise. Love to see an other cruiseline.

I've been watching your Alaska cruise series in preparation for a similar cruise (on Holland America) this coming July. The itinerary will be similar, so I really appreciate the amount of detail you've been showing for each day as it is helping me decide what to do both in port and on the days on the ship. Even though my balcony will be on the side, it looks like hanging out on my balcony will be a great option on the days when we're sailing through Glacier Bay and elsewhere and will give me the option to set my tripod up without interfering with the enjoyment of others. I can't wait for July to get here - this will be my first time in Alaska and my first time cruising.

Greetings from NJ! Glad I came across your Glacier Bay "sea day" on the Royal Princess. It was great! What month were you sailing? The views and glaciers - were as you said - no words were necessary! We are looking at Alaska in mid-August 2023. Oh, BTW - did any pups come on board as I believe, the rangers do bring on some pups (sled dogs) for everyone's enjoyment - I believe 2023 on Princess will be offering the Discovery Princess. Hope to view more vlogs too on some of the ports your visited. Thanks again and stay healthy and safe. Kathleen/NJ

I'm really eager for the video where you talk about whether or not you missed the Disney magic! It looks like a lot of fun, but I'd probably still miss Mickey's presence. I've seen Glacier Bay a couple times- did a Princess Cruise there back in '99 and then did one with Disney when I was pregnant with our 7 year old. I definitely want to go back!

Great question! So, it's not the only way to see and experience Glacier Bay, but it's certainly the most common way. I know that Glacier Bay Lodge offers boat tours into the park, and there may be other operations that do as well. However, it's not terribly easy to get to, so options are limited.
