While we'll take any opportunity to kick back and relax on a cruise ship, some cruises are bucket-list adventures that you just know you need to book early or risk being left at the dock. That's why I'm so excited about the upcoming total solar eclipse next year. On April 8, 2024 a truly remarkable astronomical event will occur: a total solar eclipse! While this isn't exactly a once-in-a-lifetime event (partial solar eclipses happen two to three times a year and total eclipses about every 18 months), this time is special. Unlike other opportunities to view one, the 2024 total solar eclipse combines three very important factors: Location, Weather, and Prime Cruise Area to make it an amazing cruise experience.

San Diego is hands down the finest embarcation port for west coast cruises (with an honorable mention nod to Vancouver). This is the only port city that combines an ambundance of hotels at various price points, a destination you might want to spend a couple days doing a pre or post-cruise stay, and best of all - easy access to the port by train, car, as well as plane. With summer Alaska cruise season windinding down, we're thrilled to have our friends from Disney, Princess, and Holland America Line back in town along with some new friends that will be visiting San Diego this year.

Aside from the Golden Gate Bridge, there is nothing more iconic than the historic San Francisco cable cars. This cable car system dates back to 1869 when the inventer Andew Smith Hallidie came up with the idea as a replacement for the then standard horse-drawn streetcars that were being used in the city. Over the next 150 years this system became both an urban nessecity to move people throughout the city and later one of the most popular tourist attractions in California.
