Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Enjoyed all dining areas. Only had one speciality restaurant during the cruise and the Tuscan was very nice. We actually ate mostly at the Oceanview Cafe but we enjoyed the MDR just as much. The wait staff in the MDR “Yogi” and Carmo were great! We loved the Martini Bar. The banana split and sunset are a must.

Onboard Activities

Cabin was very nice. We had plenty of storage.

Ship tip

Don’t prebook the specialty restaurants, wait until you are on board to book as they do special night for seafood at certain restaurants.

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

We stayed longer through the weekend to enjoy the city and sights. We bought a city pass which I highly recommend. We bought it months ago as it is good for six months and once you use one ticket it is good for 10 days. We took advantage from our hotel to use the monorail to go to the Space Needle and other places. If you have the chance go to the museum of Pop Culture, it was very good.

Skagway, Alaska
