Alaska 2018 by Hmbick

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Explorer of the Seas / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Book excursions on your own without AA or RC, much cheaper and better experience. Plus the locals actually make some money. Be prepared for heavy sales pitches on everything from jewelry to fine art.

Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Luxury cost of celebrity versus competition did not live up to expectation.

Most Amazing Alaska Cruise by ccast311

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

We celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary and we couldn't have picked a better thing to do. The ship was gorgeous and everyone was so friendly and accommodating. We would highly recommend this cruise to everyone.

Microwaved Frozen Seafood by rmehtani

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Volendam / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

How can they serve such poor quality food, i.e. Uncooked pizza, frozen seafood microwaved and worst of all most of the food was reheated and served over and over again.

Alaskan Adventure by bpbrowe

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

I liked the smaller ship. The staff was accommodating. I thought the activities were rather limited. This was our first Holland America cruise and we would probably not choose this cruise line again.

Amazing Alaskan cruise including Tracy Arm Fjord by jules225sali

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

Highly recommend this cruise!! If you cruise Tracy Arm Fjord, totally recommend the small boat cruise to get close to the glacier.

Awe-inspiring Alaskan Cruise by sandcrab710

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

We had a great time exploring Alaska in the various ports. The ship had a lot of fun activities and a wonderful, friendly staff who were always ready to help. The excursions were quite expensive but since we figured this was a once in a lifetime trip, we splurged. Every tour guide was super informative and we felt like family by the time we were done. The only things I would change would be to add some dairy free options onboard such as almond milk for those of us with dairy issues. Also, with all the active excursions and walking during the day, it would've been helpful to have the cruise parties start a little earlier than 11 pm! We were too tired to dance by then.

Disappointing on many levels. by kromley1

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

Internet was completely unusable. This is the third Princess cruise where this service has been a problem. Not sure why they offer it. Staff kept charging for items covered in a prepaid package or included with the reservation. Required repeated trips to customer service to get it corrected.

Great Onboard Entertainment but be ready for shortened shore excursions by imperialpref

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

The listed itinerary times were much longer than the actual time off the ship. Either we disembarked late (Victoria) or we had to come back to the ship much quicker than what was initially advertised (Sitka and Victoria)

Alaskan cruise on Bliss by Cruising20

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

We were traveling with another couple and we both agreed that for a new ship you have several issues that need to be resolved. Crowded elevators and buffets are major along with enough seating for the number of passengers inside when weather is bad; the ship has a funny smell in some of the corridors, our level was one that smelled not fresh. We booked some of our entertainment online before the cruise but the couple we were traveling with did not. They had never had to book in advance on any of the other cruises they had been on, so they were not able to attend with us. We would prefer to take a cruise that spent more time in some of the ports. Alaska is beautiful but we chose the wrong cruise.

Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

Mark sure to take a rain poncho or small umbrella; Alaska is a rainforest.

Great trip, but ship nickel and dimes you by flokellam

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

Cruise was great. Only complaint is you stay on ship for 3 whole days. Ports were good. Ship nickels and dimes you for everything, which they never used to. Have to pay for capacinno's at meals now. Really??? You pay extra for lots of other activities and to go to Johnny Rockets. Cost the same to go on ship as land. Ice skating show was excellent!!

New Favorite Cruise Line by hockeyjoc3

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

We've sailed MANY times on many different cruise lines and have now moved Celebrity into first position. The line, the ship, the crew - everything about this trip - was fantastic and I'd go on Celebrity again in a heartbeat.

Alaska Cruise by jship

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Explorer of the Seas / Destination: Alaska - Inside Passage

The service on the ship was fantastic. The wait staff was especially friendly. There were a good variety of activities but the hours that rock climbing, flow rider, and ice skating were open were limited to the amount of time we were on the ship. Would have been nice to have a set show schedule that had early kid friendly shows.
