June and July. If you port in Ketchikhan during Independence Day, they give quite a show. August, the wet weather starts and May there’s still some snow.

I hear the Holland cruises are really good. The cheapest way to go is via the Ferry though.

The cruise port in Vancouver is right downtown. Its actually a cruise port and convention center. Your best bet is to take a taxi as carrying luggage on a public bus is prohibitive, even if you know the way. There are reasonably priced hotel in or near downtown, like about 0 US a day and a cab ride to the port will cost about to from the hotel.

Many inside passage cruises are one-way, meaning that the ship does not bring you back to Vancouver. So you need to be sure that your cruise does that if that’s what you want. Otherwise you will have to arrange to fly back home from Anchorage, or Fairbanks. OR, if you pick the cruise lines that start in Anchorage, fly there and then end your cruise in Vancouver. It is a long bus ride to the Vancouver airport from the cruise port. But your cruise ship can usually arrange a transfer for you to the airport (more expensive than doing your own) If you take a taxi you pay one far for two or three people; cruise ship transfers are generally like a person.

We were just in Vancouver and stayed at a Holiday Inn on Broadway which is easily accessible to the cruise port.

Each time we have gone, we used Holland American Cruise Line. They are very very nice!

What is the best cruise line that leaves from Seattle and tours Alaska?

Question by Sweet P: What is the best cruise line that leaves from Seattle and tours Alaska?
I am looking for a cruise to take my son and daughter on, ages 14 and 17. They want to sea Alaska, and I would like to leave from Seattle, because it is in the US. I am wondering what the best cruise line is, that has fun activities such as Kayaking. The trip will be at the beginning of August, so I need to book fast!
