Just got home from my first cruise ever. Here are my hot treat/ food tips.
1) on the ship in Cove Cafe shop they have these AMAZING raspberry & caramel tartlets. I got one every day after i discovered them, and they are open debarkation day so I was able to get some to bring back to my husband. Sooo good.
2) I also rented a car to drive into the Yukon. Stop in Carcross for lunch. In the little group of buildings where the visitor center is and eat at the bistro there. It's more expensive than getting food on the mainland, but I had the best grilled cheese of my entire life there, and my friend had the best burger of her life. It's soooo gooood.
In skagway our favorite gift shop was the klondike bicycles rental shop. We rented our electric car from there. Nicole is the nicest, friendliest person ever, and she has great stuff in her shop. They're on 5th
3) In Kethikan there is a store called Ketchicandies. I brought a little box of their chocolates home for my husband because i thought the name was so good. I wish i had sampled them there because I would have bought more. They are incredible. The churro chocolate was absolutely phenomenal and i only had one teeny tiny little corner of a piece.
Have so much fun! Your first video was super helpful to me as I prepared for this cruise. Thank you very much for all the hard work I know you put into it. Have a great time!!!!
See you and your family on the cruise. We will be there at the same time. It was from your channel that we decided to go .
My family and I just got back from the Alaska cruise that you just went on! I met you and took a picture with you. I was so happy to meet you. My dad was the one that said "IS THAT THEME PARK EXPRESS" don't know if you remember it. It was by the Pan Pacific Hotel by the Fly over Canada. My dad also said "if you rented a car in Vancouver" but I kept telling him that it was a different port lol! Hope this brings back memories! Thank you so much for letting us take a picture with you. Oh and I almost forgot that I saw you when we first bored the ship, don't know if you will remember 3 kids one older which is 2 girls and one boy (that's me.) We had the new lanyards on that made us look like we are silver. We walked right passed you guys. We came down from the concierge lounge and walked across the ship just to get food and ice cream because we were hungry at that time. We saw you with your girlfriend and your mom (correct me if I am wrong and sorry if I am wrong.) We also saw you from the 25th anniversary show, forgot what day, but we saw you with your camera and I don't know if anyone heard because it was loud in there lol but I said "Subscribe to Theme Park Express" :). Hope you had fun on your cruise. Ours was fun but not because most of the time we were in the concierge lounge and didn't get to try some of the other foods.
We just got back from the first Disney Alaska cruise of the season last week. So much fun we did the glacier cruise on glacier day, Skagway train with driving tour back. This was great because we got to stop and take pics on the state line between Canada and Alaska and Alaska sign. In Juneau we did dog sledding at their summer camp and took the gold belt tram and got to hike and play in some snow. In Ketchikan we did the Duck tour and walked around the town. Everything was great we’re already planning another trip for next year.
I also was on the first sailing!
Just a quick question on you skyway train/driving tour, did you book through Disney or private tour? We are doing our Alaska cruise in 2024 just looking at options. Thanks
Vancouverite here! Make sure to try Lee’s donuts at Granville Island! Can’t wait to see Kota’s reaction to our beautiful city!
Second for Lee's. The line is long but goes fast!
The honey donuts at the Granville island market are amazing, I'm still thinking about them 8 years later 😅
My name is Craig Dennis i watch your new videos all the time i in joy all of your videos all the time you have a nice day today and you take care today👍👍👍👍👍
We are on the Disney Wonder right now…we were not able to see much of the glacier and I wish we had booked the Glacier explorer tour…we rented a car today from Affordable Rental and did the Klondike Drive to Emerald Lake and the other stops you mentioned and the trip was awesome!! The rental experience was great…we had a 2023 Chrysler Pacifica and it was great for the trip…have a awesome trip next week!!!
I highly recommend trying Alaska with another cruise line. My wife and I celebrated our 40th anniversary in 2018 with an Alaska land and sea package through RCL. We flew from Orlando to Seattle, then Anchorage where we spent the night at the Marriott with the rest of our tour group. The next day, we took a tour bus to the train station where we boarded the Wilderness Express with domed cars to Denali National Park where we spent the night, toured the park the next day, boarded the tour bus again and headed to Talkeetna where we spent the night. then went to Alyeska for the night and finally to Seward where we boarded the ship. The ship went to Hubbard Glacier and then Juneau, Skagway, Icy Strait Point, Ketchikan and finally Vancouver. We're planning another Alaska trip next year, possibly on another cruise line with a different land and sea package.
I am hoping a few of your videos drop before we board the end of June…staying at PanPacific, I booked months ago and the price dropped recently saving over $200 and upgraded to a better room view. We booked the glacier tour and crossing fingers it happens. We are renting a jeep in Skagway (reservations from 2020). In Juneau we are doing the Glacier Paddle & Trek and in Ketchikan we are doing a private fishing excursion. Several tastings and liquor classes, Palo Brunch (last sea day) and Palo Dinner (midway). Thank you for series from last year. Looking forward to this years cruise series.
Can't wait to watch this Alaska cruise series! I thoroughly enjoyed the last one! Btw, that is a great idea renting a car in Skagway!
RIGHT?! We saw someone else’s vlog where they rented and we were like 😱 we knew we had to do it!
@@ThemeParkExpress nothing against the white pass Railway, but it doesn't allow you to get out and explore!
@@ThemeParkExpress are you ever planning to do a Panama Canal cruise? I’m planning to go on one for a 10th anniversary and nobody has done any videos about it.
Yes, 3rd party excursions are cheaper, but I’ve heard a few stories of people not getting back to their ships on time. It’s not worth the saved money if you’re constantly thinking about time management.
The crab feast was amazing you’ll love it. You get to eat it as much as you can and they show you how to crack open the crab by using a fork. We enjoyed it so much
Have fun safe travels ! Can't wait to see the shows !
Great video about the excursions.. not a bad idea about renting a vehicle at Skagway..just remember to come back on time because Disney will leave you at Skagway.. lol...44 days and 17 hours and counting until the family Alaska cruise.. bucket list check ✔..
We did so many awesome excursions!
Skagway - Best of Skagway, which included the railroad, liarsville, red onion saloon, and lookout photos. Loved the railroad (last year you couldn't get off at peak because that is actually in Canada, so with ArriveCAN and covid, it wasn't allowed). Red Onion Saloon was actually really interesting, so if you walk by and there's a tour option, I'd recommend signing up!
Juneau - Helicopter to glacier and dog sledding! I did it 3rd party and super expensive but so worth it!
Ketchikan - Misty Fjords via boat. It was gorgeous and lots of time to just take in the scenery.
Glacier Day - we did the glacier excursion, which was great! I really liked the early one because then I got to go and hang out in the hot tub while the Wonder was still in the glacier area! Not too often you can say you looked at a glacier in a bathing suit! Though I suppose if you care more about characters, those are easier to see in the early part.
Thanks!
I’m so excited for these vlogs. Alaska is like a bucket list place for me. 💕💕💕
Thank you do much for your reviews and videos will be going end of August and staying pan pacific! Have fun!
I'll be at the Fairmont Waterfront in August.
So excited to see the videos!! 🎉🎉
Super excited for you all! Can’t wait for the upcoming videos :))
Watched your last cruise videos to prepare for the trip I just had. Thank you so much. I heard your voice in my head with many tips that I used for my vacation. My family cannot wait to relive our cruise to your next set of videos.
Im looking forward to see all the videos love your channel❤
Just had a thought, assuming you’re wanting the 25th merch.. on my cruise there was a long line to get in the store on opening night (opens around 6pm-ish) and it mostly sold out that night. You mentioned doing Palo that night, not sure what time but just a heads up.
We stayed at pan pacific and loved it! You need to wake up early and watch the ship arrive…so exciting.
At Mendenhall glacier the falls are great but there are other trails and at one near a creek they sometimes see bears😁
I would not do brunch on glacier day…so much to see and experience outdoors…it’s beautiful!
Thank you Adrien,looking forward to more cruise content!
Looking forward to your videos. We booked for next year.
Looking forward to your upcoming vlogs!
I wish you and your family a great trip. Yes , change and do other things that will make your video trip exciting.
We are going in August and it’s so hard having to wait! Can’t wait to watch your videos to make the wait more bearable, have an awesome time!
I'm going on the Aug. 28th Cruise.
If/when you get on another cruiseline to Alaska, I definitely recommend Glacier Bay cruises. You get to see multiple glaciers up close, even without a smaller boat tour.
When we went to Alaska, we cruised with Princess in a mini suite. We went in May, and holy moly, we got to see allll the whales! It was far too frigid to enjoy the extended balcony of our suite, but the trade off of the whales was great! We are now looking at ditching our FL condo vacay in August and hopping on another cruise. Decisions, decisions.
Can’t wait to follow you guys along! We are going at the end of August!
You’re going to have so much fun! LOTS of fun and informative videos coming your way soon!
We can’t wait to see your Alaskan videos, especially the Mendenhall Glacier day! That’s an excursion that we definitely want to do in 2024.
Hi Canadian here! Definitely check out the Fly Over Canada ride! It’s right by the terminal and it’s AMAZING
I heard good things about that! We’ll do our best to check it out!
@@ThemeParkExpress I definitely recommend it!
@@ThemeParkExpress oooo and you have to try TIM HORTONS
I’m praying our train ride goes better than yours when we go in July! I can’t wait to visit Alaska for the first time on my first Disney Cruise!!
We loved Holland America land and sea…you need to experience HAL glacier bay, great naturalists, do the luxury car on the train!!, Denali and train to Denali.
HAL has great service, food, and the classic ship will remind you of a Disney ship.
We will be on board the week after you! So excited 😄 Also hoping for better luck with the railway than you last year 😅 (We’re doing the rail + bus excursion, I believe driving up into the Yukon and then taking the train back down)
2 weeks ago yes we were unable to get close to the glacier as there was too much ice. But the smaller boats were able to😢
@ThemeParkExpress Hey Adrian! I hope you and your family have a blast on your vacation. I live in Vancouver so it's exciting having people from all over coming to my city to embark on their Alaskan adventures. We're going to be on the Wonder ourselves at the end of August. Looking forward to your vlogs of your trip to prepare for ours.
A couple of recommendations while you're in Vancouver. Since you're staying at the Pan Pacific, I recommend checking out the Olympic Cauldron that was used during the 2010 Winter Olympics. It's a short walk from Canada Place, just on the opposite side of the Convention Center, good photo op with some nice views of the North Shore mountains as well.
While you're in Granville Island, you have the option to hop aboard one of the water taxis that services False Creek. It offers a great view of downtown, and is a hidden gem. Highly recommended! It will take you into Olympic Village that was used to house all of the athletes during the 2010 Games and is now a residential area with a couple of pubs, a Gelato store and a bakery with more great views and great for pictures.
The seawall around False Creek / Olympic Village is beautiful and allows quick access to the skytrain at Main Street - Science World to head back to your hotel at Waterfront Station.
My last recommendation is to check out the Steamclock in the Gastown area of downtown. It's also a short walk from where you guys will be staying and is a favorite for both locals and tourists. If you do decide to check it out, try to aim to get there for the top of an hour to hear it chime, it's roughly a 10 minute walk from the Pan Pacific.
Have a great time, hope you enjoy our city, have a safe flight and an amazing cruise!
Can't wait to see your trip and what to expect this year. We sail to Alaska in 55 days.
89 days for me.
NUGGET falls... I hope he's ok!
Ill be on the same cruise cant wait. Question for you for your mendenhall bus pick up where is the pick-up point you choose? I see 2 different spots. Thanks for the tips
Hmm when we booked we never got the option for another pick up location. We board the bus near the tramway so we have to take the city shuttle to get there from the AJ dock
Ya, i looked it up. I did some research and found that both locations were the same, and yes, you are correct. The bus from the ships drops you off right there in front of the tram, so thanks see you in a week
We did the Mendenhall glacier and then our bus took us to a salmon lunch and whale watching. The salmon was fantastic.
It was a busy day. At the glacier, We could have hiked down to the glacier but chose to go on the nature trail instead. That is another good option if time allows. We loved it. Also we did see a humpback whale up close on the whale boat ride.
Yayyyyyyyyy❤
😃
Did you notice that your Ketchikan crab feast says they serve Dungeness crab? Personally, I prefer their flavor over other crabs, but they won’t have the giant long legs (those are the Alaskan King crab). Just don’t want you to be disappointed at your feast.
Haha yeah idk why I said jumbo bc I know they aren’t king crab legs lol. But they’re still pretty meaty crab legs 😅
Word of advice. When the doors open to the restaurant. Go right in. We were too courteous and waited until the last to enter. People were already eating by the time we were seated. And so we were short changed in how many rounds of crab we were given. Now mind you we ate plenty and this is the sweetest freshest crab you will ever eat. But don’t hesitate to get in and sit down. Don’t sit by the entrance doors as this is the farthest from the kitchen. Walk to at least the center of the room.
@@ThemeParkExpress Oh yeah, dungeness are deee-licious!! Enjoy!!!
Why Disney there's so much better out there?
It's a smaller ship, more intimate. And no drunks wobbling out of casinos.
@@jaynekranc8607 that is absolutely 100% why I chose Disney for my first cruise. Didn't see a drunk person the entire week.
@@lizzypalmer4207 THANK YOU! I don't gamble, I drink moderately, and I like a smaller ship.
