THE 25 BEST 2 Week Cruises from Florida Prices & Itineraries on Cruise Critic

2 week cruise

Kayaking to Columbia Glacier is one of the most extraordinary experiences you can do as part of Alaska travel. You’ll glide past waterfalls, next to cliffs, and in-between icebergs. All downtown Anchorage hotels are convenient to the train station, but they can be expensive during the summer.

Choosing a Specific Alaska Cruise

We have cruised out of both Miami ( though we didn’t know it was b2b at the time!) and Tampa where we got off on the changeover day, walked around town for a couple of hours and got back on. This year we’ve booked back to back Southampton to Reykjavik and return. Gives us double up at three Iceland ports and only one of them seems excursion light. However, whether late  COVID times will make a difference just have to wait and see. I found a 2 week cruise out of Galveston for Jan 2025.

Plan Your Perfect Quick Weekend Getaway

I still remember how long it took to plan a trip to Alaska the first time. The options were overwhelming and I wasn’t an experienced traveler. My first thought was to look into package cruisetours — but I had no interest in joining a busload of tourists in exchange for thousands of dollars.

If the turn around day is in a US Port you need to deal with the "zero out" process which means debarking the vessel and clearing immigration (before the eventual reboarding or heading off into town). It also means two final nights with the usual last night shows, announcements, etc......two embarkation evenings, etc.   None of this stuff helps with the idea of relaxation and a seamless experience. To us, back to back 7 day cruises feel like back to back 7 day cruises and not a 14 day cruise. No matter which coast you’re on, you don’t need a lot of days off to enjoy a short weekend getaway.

Take a dip in the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean, Oasis Lagoon®. Or luxe the day away in your choice of cabanas — including the first Overwater Cabanas in The Bahamas.

My concern, if any, is that I’ve also witnessed folks who make all sorts of financial decisions without having done the bottom line math needed to better inform their decision making. When I’m not traveling, you’ll find me hiking, cooking, practicing yoga, and cuddling with my puppy. If you’d rather hit the road immediately and use your time in Anchorage, you can bike the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail and look for moose. In bad weather, visit the Alaska Native Heritage Center which has lots of daily presentations, dances, music, and more. It’s a long drive from Valdez to Denali but it’s beautiful for the entire journey.

On top of that, cruises take you past spectacular scenery. Every day is a chance to see beautiful fjords, bays, canals, and marine life habitats. On my last 12 day southern carribean cruise it was 1 bag of free laundry for platinum but on a 15 day cruise I was told it would be 2 bags of laundry.

LEVEL UP ON DEEPER DISCOVERIES

From non-stop beats and endless craft cocktails to cabanas with exclusive plunge pool access and a personal attendant, this is your adults-only weekend in paradise. Start your adventure with some good old-fashioned southern hospitality in Galveston, Texas. Don’t miss the city’s must-see landmark buildings and bustling Pleasure Pier.

Then board your ship and sail on a short cruise getaway to the beautiful shores of Mexico and the western Caribbean. At first pass, the thought of a month long cruise (on, at least, a premium line) may seem out-of-reach in cost when compared to a couple of two-week cruises on a mass market line as an alternative. But I would give this advice to the OP.  When you start moving into longer cruises it also opens up a cruise world that goes way beyond simple back to backs in the Caribbean. There are cruises to and around all 7 Continents with some amazing itineraries. Instead of getting into the rut of "more of the same" consider expanding your horizons to other parts of the world.

Some cruises go to Glacier Bay (like this one) while others go to Hubbard Glacier. I’ve been to both, recommend both, and wouldn’t stress over which one you get to go to. You’ll have a good time on either glacier cruise. While I was planning my first Alaska trip, I thought the scenic cruise day was a marketing ploy.

Instead of spending a day in St Thomas imagine spending a day in Barcelona, Rome, Florence, etc. That can certainly mix things up a bit in a lot of areas. Different food, entertainment, atmosphere, etc might be nice.
