Review summary

We enjoyed our cruise to Alaska on the Legend.  Our only regret was not having enough time in the ports to explore the sights.  After we completed our excursion it was time to board the ship.  We only had time to explore in Skagway, AK.

Ship tip

We would like longer stays in ports in order to explore. The food in the dining room was great at dinner and at brunch during sea days. The buffet food was well prepared, but in the evening served cool to cold. It was very hard to find seating during lunch on the Lido deck.

I wish you wouldn't lower the cruise ship's rating because of that. That's the case for any cruise ship/cruise line. Before you book an excursion you need to look and see how long it runs. Some are shorter than others so you could still have time to explore the port. Like with any cruise it's your responsibility to see how long you're in port and how long an excursion runs and plan accordingly.
