Agreed Don! I loved Juneau (and Sitka and Skagway) without people! Hoohah was a delight as well, especially when we had the village to ourselves early in the morning before the ships arrived at ISP! We also LOVED getting to meet and chat with Alaskans as they went out about their lives. They were very nice and engaging, interested in sharing their culture and lifestyle. I've spent A LOT of time in Alaska (over 125 days over the past 15 years in all seasons . . . and the 3 weeks on the AK Marine Ferry will always be a highlight among MANY highlights.

In 2019 we did an "uncruise" using the AK Marine Ferry to tour some of the villages/ports featured on many of the cruise lines. I have shared my detailed blog of our 3 weeks with many people on several social media platforms. I'm sharing it here too, in hopes that it will help people pick the best cruises for their personal interests . . . and to give some ideas of the wonderful places to see and experience. https://alaskasinsidepassage.blogspot.com/ P.S. There are a lot of photos too!
