Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Easy access to a huge selection of food and drink. The main dining room found to fun delicious food when we decided to go there. We had a birthday girl to celebrate her day and the main dining room exploded in song for the celebration. I did not find any of the food I selected to be bad. The service was the best I have ever experienced.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Overall the activities were up to par. I was disappointed in the main shows somewhat, since the same company mostly did them all. I was especially disappointed in the perceived Classical themed Mozart musical. They destroyed the whole thing, with nothing except some costumes of the perceived period of Mozart. The music was not good at all.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Professional and courteous. Couldn't have asked for better.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ok, a little lax for elevators since we had a lot of people on the cruise. Other than that, well done.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Overall it was good, except for the crack in woodwork above the safe in the closet. Just needs some attention. An update would be in order I think,

Ship tip

Make sure you do not get a room with balcony on the 6th floor, as you will get to look at lifeboat rigging. We complained prior to the voyage and got a much better room.

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

4 out of 5
Crowded and noisy, but that's Seattle. the port was fine.

Ketchikan, Alaska

4 out of 5
A lot of cruise ships there at the same time, but overall enjoyable. The towns all were interesting and fun to explore.

CRUISE ENDICOTT ARM & DAWES GLACIER

What can I say about the experience, absolutely the best. Beautiful and the crew(Captain) got us so close to the glacier. Fantastic.

Juneau, Alaska

3 out of 5
Crowded and disappointing.

Skagway, Alaska

5 out of 5
Had fun here. The excursion was good and showed a lot of beautiful areas.

Cruise Inside Passage, Alaska

5 out of 5
A lot of sea to see at length, but overall fun to experience.

Victoria, British Columbia

4 out of 5
Short time to visit, but close to home, thus we visit a couple of times on our own other than with the cruise. Nice walking around this place.

I didn’t realise that the Prince & Princess of Wales (Charles & Carmilla) were in Alaska - did u get to speak to them or shake their hands?

No cruises listed? No pictures? Fake review?
