If you've already booked a cruise and done some research, this may not be the book for you. I was expecting a bit more in the way of what to see at the ports, but what was included was very good. This book would be great for someone who is seriously considering a cruise, but hasn't decided yet.

This book was very informative. It tells of many interesting things to do that you would never think about doing as well as approximate costs of shore excursions. I am glad I own it.

We read Frommer's Alaska Cruises & Ports of Call in preparation for an educational cruise we had booked. The book described our particular ship, including its strong points and weak points. It helped us pack the appropriate attire, since it was not a formal cruise. Best of all, the authors reviewed the various ports of call and what to expect in each. They described the on-shore excursions, including prices. It was clear that some tours were not worth the time or money. We felt well prepared to start this great trip.
