Another shopper raved about using this backpack on a cruise vacation. “I bought this bag for a cruise to Alaska — day trips/excursions — and it delivered and then some! I couldn’t believe how much this bag carries, without being huge and cumbersome. My family easily fit 4 sweatshirts plus phones, sunglasses, etc… inside it.”
