| Bob & Teresa | | Cruise critic username: | frbob; tjcox9 | | From: | Greer, SC | | Excursions: | Mostly private tours | | Number of cruises: | 48 and counting | | Age: | Old enough to know better | | Email: | [click to send email] | | About: | Picture taken in May, 2010 on Dyea Dave tour from Skagway to Carcross in the Yukon Territory. Great excursion!
We take private tours because we find them to be generally more comprehensive and flexible than ship's tours, can deal with our time constraints and end up being a whole lot less expensive. We've had some terrific private tours all over the world and have yet to miss the ship's departure. This takes some planning on our part but it's worth the effort. We love great scenery, wildlife and good local foods. |
