As the Alaska cruise season comes to a close each year, Princess Cruises celebrates the year's favorite local tour operators with special shipboard ceremonies. The winners of the line's 13th annual C.R.U.I.S.E. service awards have just been announced, honoring the best shore excursion experiences and guides in each port on Alaska itineraries, based largely on passenger feedback throughout one day tours from london to paris the season.
The awards recognize the most popular tours, individual guides and dock representatives in the communities where Princess ships call. Chosen one day tours from london to paris from the extensive line-up of Alaska shore excursions offered to Princess passengers, the awards highlight the important role local tour operators play in each community as part of a passenger's overall cruise experience. Winners are determined largely by tour scores and comments made on passenger surveys.
"Shore excursions, especially in such an exciting destination as Alaska, one day tours from london to paris are so important in providing passengers with the unforgettable moments that highlight an Alaska vacation," said Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises executive vice president. "We're proud to have such a long-running program in place to recognize the contribution these local tour operators make to providing our passengers with the best shore experience possible."
The C.R.U.I.S.E. program is the longest running customer service program in the cruise industry.
