Cruise the inside passage. It's a much more scenic route than the alternative.

Also, get a balcony cabin if you can afford it. It's well worth the cost to be able to enjoy the scenery & eat some meals on your balcony.

It's bumpy. Get a patch if anyone is prone to sea sickness.

Work with a good travel agent who understands what is important to you.
