Joe’s Alaska Cruise Tips
Alaska is a massive place, and a cruise is easily the best way to see the scale of it without getting lost in the weeds.

I’ve also broken down my favorite spots in the major ports like Juneau and Skagway, plus a few tips on cruise etiquette and where to find the best wild salmon. If you’re planning your first trip up the Inside Passage, here is what you actually need to know before you board.
