Skagway Shore Excursion: Full-Day Tour of the Yukon
Skagway, Alaska
My Rating

A great dau despite it being a little miserable with the weather. Crossing over White Pass helped to make it less wet than Skagway which helped. The tour was informative, we went further than the train and the tour guide Tyler stopped often for photo chances. He was very informative and friendly. The lunch at Carribou Crossing was good and meeting some of the sled dogs training for the Ididerod was great. Long day but very enjoyable

Juneau Shore Excursion: Whale-Watching Adventure with Mendenhall Glacier Tour
Juneau, Alaska
My Rating

Saw many whales (and calves) considering it was towards the end of the whale watching season. Tour was informative and our onboard guide Ryan was very knowledgeable. Mendenhall Glacier was mind blowing and we had the added bonus of witnessing two mother bears feeding their cubs was fresh salmon they caught in the stream right in front of us. A very good tour.

Ketchikan Shore Excursion: Lighthouses, Totems and Eagles Cruise
Ketchikan, Alaska
My Rating

This cruise was wonderful we were blessed with good weather but the boat and its crew were first class, knowledgeable and accommodating to all of us on board. Captain Rob and his dog Princess were perfect hosts and we saw many eagles and got some wonderful photographs. Well worth the trip, highly recommend it.

Murano, Burano and Torcello Half-Day Sightseeing Tour
Venice, Italy
My Rating

A taste of all three enough to make you wish you had more time. A full day would have been better. We ended up going back to both Murano and Burano and spending more time to really get to see it.

Venice Walking Tour and Gondola Ride
Venice, Italy
My Rating

Good insight into Venice which is a little overwhelming the first time you go there to get your bearings. A little hard to understand the guide at times but overall worth the money to do. Nice out on the Gondola despite not being able to sit with my husband.

Loved it, such a different way to see a city. A little unsure if I would enjoy it but it was fabulous. If in doubt DO IT.

My Rating

Extremely busy and hard to keep up with a very large group but could not have done it on our own and understand half of what we were seeing. Our guide was very helpful.

Skip the Line: Louvre Museum Walking Tour including Venus de Milo and Mona Lisa
Paris, France
My Rating

The busiest our guide had seen the Louvre for a long time. Needed to do the tour with the guide or we never would have got half the info we needed to understand exactly what we were seeing.

Had a wonderful evening. The Eiffel Tower dinner was fabulous, food was great. Our guide for the night was a great help and terrific fun. Moulin Rouge was well worth it. A very enjoyable fun night.
