Default Need Input Re: Alaska Trip.

My wife and I are planning an extensive trip this summer. Due to the numerous visits to relatives and friends and our propensity to poke along and smell the roses, we are travelling by auto. At some point we will be in the Pacific Northwest. We have always wanted to visit Alaska and as we will be that close we decided we may go for it.

We would prefer, at that point, to travel by boat. I am not talking conventional cruise ship. We do not need swimming pool, formal dinning, floor shows, night life, bars, the latest and greatest ship, etc. We do want clean and comfortable accommodations, good food, and with any luck, pleasant travel companions.

Any suggestions?
