Review summary
Favorite part of the cruise was visiting the ports and the glacier fjords.
The food was okay with a few very good items. But there were plenty of items to choose from and a fairly good variety of selections from day to day. We enjoyed the Belgium waffles. Dining in the dining rooms was pleasant with some very attentive servers. Again, the food was okay with one or two exceptional items.
We would not recommend eating at the Bayou specialty restaurant unless you really like Cajun food. We were looking for a great steak and there was a limited variety of steaks most of which were tough.
Our room was comfortable. The bed was amazing.
We enjoyed the vocal impersonator show and the naturalist shows. The dancing/music show was only so-so with some of the performers just going through the motions. We did not understand the emphasis placed on Cajun foods and entertainment for a ship heading to and from Alaska. We thoroughly enjoyed the pianist at the open bar who played for Frank Sinatra. He was phenomenal! We wish he could have played in a larger venue.
We also enjoyed the complimentary tour of the kitchens in the ship.

Ship tip
*Use a vertical lariat to hold your ship card, driver license, credit card & a little cash. *Stand at the front of the ship on deck 7 next to the last window before the hull to see the glaciers & wildlife and to be protected from the wind. It is also a good place to walk to the other side.
