Completed the Vancouver Specialist Course Today!
🇨🇦 You might ask why I would pick this specialist training, and my answer would be that it is one of the busiest ports for Alaskan Inside Passage Cruises annually!
🇨🇦 Canada Place is the home of the Port of Vancouver, and it is one of the busiest cruise terminals in North America with 300 sailings each year
🚢 Over 20 Cruise Lines Sail out of Vancouver (definitely more than I knew)
🚢 To help cruisers plan their trip to Vancouver as a Travel Advisor I need to know about the destination! (I have been there 3 times pre-cruises, and I did learn things today!)
🏩 Hotels- Did you know that there are over 25,000 available rooms in Vancouver with 13,000 in the downtown area? Does anyone know the name of the hotel closest to the cruise terminal?
✈️🚞🚕Transportation is important! You have to get to Vancouver and be able to get around while you are there!
🎍 Sights to see while you are there pre or post cruise and there are plenty! I never suggest arriving on the day of a cruise and Vancouver has so much to see and do!
🧭 Vancouver is separated into 9 separate Neighborhoods with sights, museums, tours, outdoor activities and restaurants to visit!
🤩 Trust me I found some new adventures to see on my next trip to Vancouver!
🗓️ Cruise Season in Vancouver only runs from May-September, but there are many things to see throughout the year!
Many cruise lines have announced their Alaskan Itineraries into 2027 and 2028; we can work together to plan early! And since I always recommend arriving to a cruise a day or more in advance, we can plan some time in Vancouver too!
