Review summary

It is a must do cruise in a lifetime. Pictures of the glaciers do not translate the size of the landscape nor the smell of the air. Everyone should experience Alaska cruise experience. If possible add Denali to the cruise portion.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Excellent help with the wheelchair on boarding

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food was good but not exceptional taste in the main dining room or buffets. Felt the oven was set high to mass produce the desserts, cakes and cookies were dry and others needed a knife to cut.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Enjoyed the hair salon. Others mentioned above were not utilized.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Performers were excellent, would have enjoyed more stage shows (singing and dancing) than the other solo performers, except for the Alaskan story teller by song.

Children's Programs

No children traveling
