Alaska - Inside Passage Cruise Reviews

Bucket list trip for some of my fellow cruisers. The dining was good onboard. The weather was dreary until we got off the ship in Canada, then it was sunny and warm. Great views, fun ship.

Great time. Drink package very expensive but you pay $12-20 per drink otherwise. Staff was over the top, exceptional. Ship was very nice with lots to do for an active family. Wish we had gone 1-2 weeks earlier as more would have been open and nicer weather.

Enjoyed the entire trip - relaxing, lots of good food, entertainment great, Ketchikan beautiful

Great trip, saw lots of beautiful scenery, ship was wonderful.

I would recommend this Holland America cruise to anyone looking for a relaxing peek at Alaska.

We have been to Alaska several times. The stops are not new to us which is ok. we know what to expect. The highlight of our trip was the fishing as last time we came to Alaska we couldn't go salmon fishing as it was bad. Also my husband won the last day BINGO Jackpot, that he spit with another winner!!!

First time on a Princess ship. Was ok. Was a little disappointed of ship given it was "new". Food was fine. Our head waiter was very nice; 5+. Our guy who made the room daily was GREAT!!! Definitely want to go back to Alaska when weather is better

Big wave on the way to Ketchikan, and rainy days in Alaska!

Nice but not like our last experience some years ago

Our expectations were exceeded! The ship is impressive, incredibly designed - never seemed crowded. The staff was the best I have experienced - the customer service was impeccable. We loved the food, the ports, the tours offered and the embarkation. This is highly recommended for any experienced or first time cruise passengers.

All in all, we had a great time! June Cook was an excellent advisor. She helped pick us the perfect place for a stateroom considering the size of the ship. The food was great! The drinks were well put together and the service was just exceptional. I would definitely use Cruises again as well as the Princess Cruise Line.

Food and service were excellent. Clean and new ship and cabin.

4,300 guests on the ship. The Atrium was used for everything. There should be a designated room for movies, games, etc. besides the Atrium. It is too small with not enough chairs.

I was very disappointed, from the misinformation given by the travel agent, the poorly informed staff onboard. the poorly planned elevator service, boring activities. I would recommend no one book excursions with the cruise line. They are overpriced and readily available at every port. I would go so far as to say the best thing about Princess was that it was a newer ship that was well appointed.

Was so excited about the trip and then let down with the quality of the food, got sick in the Seafood Restaurant which served Captain D like seafood. The entertainment was mediocre The staff was very nice and were the best part of the cruise. Will NEVER sail NCL again

We needed a break from the past few years and we got exactly what we needed.. great service, good food and drink, and plenty of ways to just relax around the ship areas and enjoy the sea. We could not have asked for better weather, sunshine in every port. Our only downside was both getting Influenza A and not feeling well at the last two ports. That's the breaks of being in enclosed spaces with a lot of folks after a few years of isolation. I'm not sure we got all the correct on board credit we were supposed to, be sure to check your bookings, take screenshots if it says pre-paid gratuity etc. It will come in useful for any questions later.

All staff very nice and professional. Anything we wanted/needed was at our fingertips. Superb sights. An overall wonderful and relaxing experience.

Overall I would say that the cruise was a successful time for our first time. However I have discovered that cruises will not be for me. I enjoyed the time on land most of all. Having traveled with sisters and friends that was an awesome part as well. Getting covid to finish off the trip was not my favorite thing! Thanks Koningsdam for an experience!

For a first cruise experience, this wasn't bad. Most of the things that I didn't love were just rookie mistakes. If you're someone who doesn't care that much about the ports, this is a good cruise. This cruise is simply too short and too late in the season for people to get the Alaska experience, though. I'm not too upset about it, because I'd already had lots of experiences whale watching, seeing bears, visiting glaciers, etc, but I think I would have been disappointed if this was a bucket-list cruise for me. The Bliss is also just so large that getting on and off is a production for such short port calls.

Service on the Bliss is outstanding. Every staff member greets you. Like I was still it Texas. Since cruising is a hospitality industry, The Bliss could be the standard for other vessels to emulate. Nothing ever felt rote or stained. I know it is their job but they make you feel cared for.
