Carnival did an awesome job with getting us on and off the ship in a timely manner. They were extremely organized.

Perfect location, not far from the elevators but quiet. And the views are amazing

Ship tip

Don’t wast your money on Faster to Fun. It’s not needed. Get anytime dining whenever possible. And don’t buy the drink packages. Do your homework and see how many drinks you would need to buy a day. If you go on excursions and leave the ship, there is not enough time to consume the alcohol you would need to, to make that package pay off.

Cool city. Go hang out with the locals in a bar. Play their lottery- which are pull tabs. I recommend the blueberry cider. It was great.

I love the port. I just wish we had more time there. 4 hours is not enough time.

The Discovery whale watching trip was the best excursion ever. Very informative and we saw humpbacks and orcas. They guarantee you will see whales. Totally worth it.

Skagway, Alaska

Loved the port. I think we should have less time hear and spread that time to the next two ports. The White train was well worth going in. The bus ride and all the stops are a big waste of time. Ride the train up and back of you can.
