Alaska's Inside Passage Traveler: See More, Spend Less

arrived in plenty of time. cruising by Ferry is just not my thing. interesting reading though

Want to really experience the Inside Passage - up close and in person with the locals? A terrific alternative to cruise(cattle)boats, where you might have a few hours in the largest communities, this book will give you all the info you need for ferry-hopping. Pack a bag/backpack, grab this book and have a ball. You get the best data on each and every one of the communities that the ferry system serves - what to see & /or do, local accomodations or camping, facilities available and events. Who offers senior discounts, where can you rent a boat or find a local tour boat or flight, local trivia and anecdotes, what are the room rates... No, this isn't a sightseer's tourbook, it is a guide to the ferry system and the communities it serves - and for pennypinchers a MUST! Go - and have FUN!

Planning my first trip to Alaska this summer. Got this book to start...going to use others. This is a MUST BOOK if you plan on using the Alaska Ferry System a lot. This book would be useless if you plan on those big cruise boats.
