Heather1972 Posted September 6, 2016 Author #26 Share Posted September 6, 2016 First, thank you for the great review and video. Love it. How much was the pedicab ride to city center from pier? We did a 3 hour 15 minute tour with three people. So it's paid by time per person, not necessarily where you want to go. We went along the waterfront and some neighborhoods, the gardens, downtown, the pier area. Basically a big circle around the town. Anyway, in US dollars it was about $240 total. That also included a 20% tip and repayment for chocolates from Rogers chocolate store. If you're looking to book a pedicab, definitely look up Scott Dolff with Victoria pedicab company.

Heather1972 Posted September 6, 2016 Author #27 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Did you write a review of the hotel on Trip Advisor? If so then you had every right to complain. Glad you enjoyed your AK cruise on the Pearl - we have done AK three times now - most recently on the Pearl back in 12. We did not have the UBP then but gladly paid for the Glacier bay drinks - we had a flyer in our cabin the day before allowing us to pre- order and have them delivered - we were also in a suite so perhaps that made a difference - but our butler did not deliver them - someone from the bar did. Less than 20 days to go till we leave for 14 days on the Dawn - can't wait:) It's kind of obvious which review on trip advisor is mine. It's a recent poor review of hotel 1000. I'm thinking our lack of a flyer about the glacier Bay special drinks have something to do with our room steward. We had to ask for the customs form, the laundry form, well we just had to ask for a lot of things she should've just automatically brought to the room.

jackie101 Posted September 7, 2016 #30 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Awesome video and review. I am on this same cruise next year. Do you recommend flying in one or two days before the cruise? We are coming from Vermont. Thank you. we did the same cruise, but on Aug 14th. I would plan on flying in 2 days before. We planned on that from Providence,RI and there was a huge rain/lightening storm that delayed us and would have missed our connecting flight and at that point no other flights to Seattle. We had to switch airlines and leave on Sat am instead of Friday for a sunday cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yankeegirlinkiwiland Posted September 7, 2016 #32 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Awesome video! We are going on the NCL Sun next year to Alaska. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momoftwinteens Posted September 7, 2016 #33 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I appreciate your advice and that of others who answered my question. We will probably fly in 2 days early. I worked at our local airport for 8 years so I am very familiar with the joys of flight delays Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
