Q: Are there cheap Alaska Cruises?

A: Alaska Cruises can be a lot cheaper than you might think! There are many factors that can affect the cost of an Alaska Cruise. The biggest cost factor is the location of your cabin on the ship; the most affordable would be an interior cabin without an ocean view. If the price still seems high, remember that generally, cruises are all-inclusive and you don’t need to worry about the cost of food, or on-ship activities unless you plan to eat in specialty restaurants.

Alaska Denali Tours also has some great Alaska Web Specials that can save you money on your cruise. Connect your cruise with a land-based Alaska Vacation, and enjoy some great savings! A Grand Alaska Cruise Vacation accomplishes this perfectly!

So depending on a few factors, Alaska Cruises are affordable! Take a look at our Alaska Cruises Pageto find affordable cruises; prices can start as low as $529.00!

Q: Are there any venomous snakes or spiders we need to worry about while in Alaska?

A: Believe it or not, there are no native species of venomous snakes or spiders!  As for snakes, no reptiles can survive in the wild up here, so you don’t have to worry about being bitten by anything of that sort. Seriously venomous spiders do not occur in Alaska: these include those from the Loxosceles (recluse) and Latrodectus (widow) genera which can cause severe local as well as systemic effects.  The only major venomous spider possibly found in Alaska is the hobo spider, Tegenaria agrestis, which was introduced from Europe to the Pacific Northwest in the 1930s. While the range of the hobo spider could extend into the Alaska panhandle, the hobo spider has never been positively identified anywhere in Alaska.(SOA Epidemiology Bulletin No. 17-November 1, 2000) Continue reading →
