Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Main dining room dinner menu was lacking. Fried chicken was offered 3 of the seven nights. Food was luke warm. Breakfast menu had great variety but my poached eggs were sometimes cold. Lido buffet was frustrating to navigate due to the people having to use the line area as walk ways. Selection at lido was decent. Pizza was good. Ice cream was watery. Fahrenheit 555 excellent food dinning area was lack luster at best.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Lots of trivia. Too cold to use pools for us. Educational seminars on Alaska were very informative and entertaining.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Shows were good. Azar the Mentalist was one of the best magicians we’ve ever seen on any cruise.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Service was consistently good. Not great not poor. We didn’t have a rude or going the extra mile experience with any of the staff.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
We liked the ships layout and found the ship clean in all areas. Hand sanitizer was a little harder to come by on this cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Loved our suite.

Ship tip

Plan on eating more local food at the different ports!

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

4 out of 5
We did not do an excursion. We did things on our own. Seattles Pike Market is a must do. Space needle and Fremont troll were good too. Seattles food is good.

Juneau, Alaska

4 out of 5
Did luxury yacht whale watching. We enjoyed it but it was very pricy.

Skagway, Alaska

4 out of 5
Did train excursion. And walked the town on our own. The Skagway Brewery was a great place to eat.

Victoria, British Columbia
