Will not go on Princess again by roslynperoff

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Ruby Princess / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Food is really bad, meat is tough and not edible. I find it weird that Carnival owns Princess and that there is no hot chocolate in the buffet and no drinks beside water and you have to ask for lemonade and there is no punch, also for breakfast there is no omelet station where they make the omelet in front of you and you order one and they take forever to bring it to you and then it is cold. I have never been on a ship where they take your order and than bring it to you unless you go in to the dining area. We are almost Elite and now I remember why we stopped going on Princess totally has gone down the tubes

Fabulous Alaskan cruise by Charbilas1

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

We did not make restaurant reservations anywhere but all the complimentary food was great! Loved the cabin, had 15 pieces of luggage and hid it all except one! Loved the staff, it was the trip of a lifetime! Fav spot was the observation deck on 15. Comfy chairs, great food, drinks and gorgeous scenery. Best vacation.

Way beyond expectation! by yummyyumika

Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

we were a group of 6 people- three generations and everybody enjoyed their own way. My daughter had a blast making friends at the kids club and playing in the pool all day! Staff was all well trained and cheerful. Captain was a character. The whole experience was beyond my expectation. Thank you!

Our cruise was amazing from start to finish. Beautiful ship, wonderful service, so much to do (or not!) on board. Our Captain (Tasos) was excellent, personable and comical. Highly recommend!

Ship: Explorer of the Seas / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Side trips are overpriced. If you want soft drinks on this cruise, you must buy a special glass for $70. There is a $14.50 per person per day automatic gratuity charge to your bill. This is not a sun-lovers cruise. Temperatures in summer are very cool in this climate. We had plumbing and mold problems in our cabin.

First Time on Celebrity by cdkahn

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Overall, very good experience. There are always flaws, but the biggest issue for us was the lack of sugar free desserts -- smallest selection and less variety of any of the five other cruise lines we have been on.

Amazing views! by cccleslie2003

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Explorer of the Seas / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

My husband and I joined 2 other couples for this cruise. We loved our days in port! We did a seaplane to Taku Lodge in Juneau, rented a car to explore on our own in Skagway, and took a carriage ride through Victoria as well as walked the park area. The cruise ship had lots to offer onboard no matter your interest and the staff were very polite and helpful. This was our first cruise and we loved it! Looking forward to doing it over again in the future!

We love Holland America. A smaller ship is our favorite. We will definitely cruise again with Holland America. The staff, food , cleanliness of ship and our wonderful experience was a memory we will cherish❤️🎈

Amazing experience by hgreensp

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

We had an amazing time (helped by a brand new ship and exquisite weather). The cruise director and staff were fantastic, providing a wide array of onboard activities. Make reservations early for the shows, which were also great.

Disappointed by dcase58

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Although the Bliss is a new ship it was not at all what we expected. The ship is very poorly arranged. Its impossible to get into any of the shows because they book so quickly, as well a the specialty dining and the clubs. We were trying to book shows weeks before the cruise and couldn't get in. Received 3 specialty dining's and they were booked up finally got into the Ocean Blue and then had to pay an upcharge. The open areas are too small for the amount of guest, super crowded. The worst was trying to maneuver through the Garden Café in the mornings, horrible, never found place to sit and the crowds were out of control. We booked a balcony room and found it to be much smaller than any of the other cruise lines balcony's. We were treated very rudely by several of the bar staff. Its a shame because this was for our 40th anniversary and we had saved for a very long time to take this trip. However, the food and drinks were very good!

Alaskan Journey by jerr52

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Eurodam / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Since this was our first visit of any kind to Alaska, we can honestly say that we enjoyed the overall experience of the ports. The only shipboard experience with Holland America that we really enjoyed was the cruise around Glacier Bay. Food quality and choices was disappointing. Several times we were erroneously charged by the main Dinning Rm. The last night when we arrived back on board from Victoria our cabin ventilation system had been shut down...it took multiple calls to guest services and 3 hours to get the problem rectified. To HAL's credit, they did say they would refund $250, we'll see.
