Review summary

Being our first time on an Alaskan cruise we did not know what to expect.

We had an excellent time and got to see everything we wanted to see.

Would take more time in certain places but that will be for another trip.

Would recommend taking warm clothes and binoculars to see everything you can.

Overall was one of the best cruises we have taken.

Sometimes we felt food could be more simple at buffets but overall was great.
