I booked this cruise at the last minute, and was very pleasantly surprised at the quality and aesthetics of the ship, the friendliness and helpfulness of the crew, and the amount of activities offered. I took part in a lot of the activities and found them to be entertaining, informative and fun. This was a repositioning cruise so itinerary was only one way, however I would take this cruise again if available in the future.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
For me, the embarkation process was easy and efficient. However, if you had not completed the pre-cruise steps, this process would have been cumbersome.

Ship tip
Spend the first couple of hours onboard familiarizing yourself with decks 5, 6, and 7. This familiarity will serve you well during the rest of your trip.
Victoria was beautiful. I wish our stay was longer. I booked an excursion through Princess (whale watching), and our time in Victoria was almost over when I returned to the ship. Next time I'll make sure to make it into the city.
