Though the land portion of both the Denali and the Yukon itineraries can be taken either before or after the cruise, we feel that it's better to take the land portion pre-cruise rather than post-cruise. Why? After several days of traveling around in the wilderness, it's nice to be able to get aboard a ship to relax and be pampered for a while.
Because of the distances that must be covered on some wilderness cruise tour itineraries, passengers often have to be rousted out of bed and ready to board the motor coach by, say, 7:30 a.m. And the day may seem to go on forever, with a stop to view this waterfall, or that river or mountain. Then, upon arrival at the next stop, in the early evening usually, the request is "Hurry and get cleaned up for dinner." By the time you've crawled into your new bed often quite late at night, you're beat. It's a nice kind of tired, as the saying goes, but it's tired nevertheless.
After a few days of that, it's great to get on a luxurious cruise ship, unpack just once and rise when you feel like it, comfortable in the knowledge that you haven't missed your transportation and that you'll still be in time to have a leisurely breakfast.
That, at any rate, is the conventional wisdom, and there's more of a demand for pre-cruise land packages than for post-cruise. Since the lines obviously can't always accommodate everybody on a land itinerary before the cruise (they're hoping to even out the traffic flow by having a like number of requests to go touring after the voyage), it's smart to get your bid in early.
