Review summary

Overall, love Alaska. This was my 3rd cruise & a bit disappointing compared to the other 2 as far as the food and the ship go. Didn't seem like it had been recently renovated like Celebrity claims

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Found a container of someone else's medication & a water bottle under the bed. Felt it should have been cleaned more thoroughly between patrons

Ship tip

Try a different ship. It's old & the food left much to be desired

Went on a photography tour with Nathan from Gastineau Guiding. He was fantastic. Made sure our cameras & phones were set to get good pics. Saw humpbacks, sea lions, orcas etc. It was wonderful!
