The most enjoyable part of the cruise. Absolutely amazing and the best...eat all day if you want. Morning, afternoon..night middle of the night. Eat anytime you want and the dining rooms are very upscale.

Room was ok but who cares you are only there to change and sleep. So who cares about the room. I got the cheapest room and it was very nice. No window no balcony but if I could afford it for Alaska only i would get the balcony so you can see everything outside.

We went Salmon Fishing and it was fantastic. My wife had never fished and dang her she caught 2 of the biggest three salmon we caught. Overall we got 10 but it was truly amazing.

you have to do the train ride the White Pass. We also did the sled dog adventure and the Jewell Gardens. All of them were very nice and worth the money. Lots of shopping to do.

Take a helicopter up on Mendenhall Glacier......and drink water that has been frozen for millions years and drink it as pure as it will ever be.
