Alaska's Southeast June 16, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
We took this book on our recent cruise to Alaska. What a great book to explain about the different ports. I carried this in my backpack and would reference it for places to eat and things to do while in various Alaska cities. This is a good guide to let you read about some places most tourist don't know about. It includes maps of the cities, description of things to do in each town, and some local merchants if you wish to shop or even set up a kayak trip for the day.
I would highly recommend this book for anyone wanting a concise text on Alaska's inside passage. It has many good points on what to wear, what the temperature will be like, wildlife you may see, and best time of year to go.
I plan on keeping mine for the next time we venture up north.
Very informative May 7, 2008
