Where in the world do we have clients traveling this week?

09/25/2026

We picked nine Celebrity cruises for 2027: our top three for the Caribbean, Europe, and Alaska.

There are many more sailings to choose from. On eligible cruises, our exclusive agency pricing can mean thousands in savings, and we have a bonus onboard credit offer through E-L-K Travel Co. The right choice still comes down to where you want to go, when you can travel, and what you want from the ship.

Watch the replay, then tell me: Caribbean, Europe, or Alaska?

Planning an Alaska cruise for 2027?

Before you start randomly adding excursions to your cart, watch this.

I sat down with Rinat Glinert, CEO of Venture Ashore, to talk about how to plan your days ashore in Alaska.

We covered which excursions deserve an early reservation, options in the major Alaska ports, what's new for 2027, and what travelers should understand about booking independently instead of through the cruise line.

If Alaska is on your calendar for 2027, save this one while you're planning.

What's the ONE Alaska port you still need help figuring out?

Something very special is coming to E-L-K Travel Co.

Donovan and Brianna are heading to Antarctica for the first time in January 2029—and they’re inviting you to experience it alongside them.

This 16-night expedition is planned to cross the Antarctic Circle, with nine days exploring the Antarctic Peninsula and Marguerite Bay.

Think Zodiac landings, kayaking, penguins, whales, seals and landscapes that barely seem real.

Complete details will be released Tuesday, September 15. The priority waitlist will receive first access to the maximum 20 cabins available through E-L-K Travel Co.

Alaska has a way of making even seasoned travelers speechless. Erica just got back from her Holland America sailing and she summed it up perfectly: the memories with friends and the unbelievably beautiful scenery.

But here's the part that made us smile most.

"One party in our group didn't use Donovan because they had their own travel agent. They paid more and didn't get as many perks as we did."

That's the whole point of working with an advisor who actually specializes in cruising. Same ship. Same sailing. Different outcome.

Erica also shared this, and it's exactly what we aim for every time. "He provided amazing information from what kind of weather to expect, to a helpful packing guide. We were totally prepared going into the trip. No surprises, which I love!"
