Alaska Cruise and land tour- Is it better to book separate tours?

Question by Blueagle: Alaska Cruise and land tour- Is it better to book separate tours?
Any suggestions on who to deal with? We are thinking Princess Cruise followed with a 4 or 5 day land tour but are wondering if booking a separate land tour would be better than the cruise ship offers. We’re also looking for a great deal, money-wise. I’d like to fish the last day and bring fish home to the San Francisco bay area.

Best answer:

Answer by M W
the excersions offered on the ship are priced higher then if you book them separatedly. i suggest u book your land tours separately. don’t book them on the ship. book them in advance thru the internet if possible.
