Review summary

Our expectations were exceeded! The ship is impressive, incredibly designed - never seemed crowded. The staff was the best I have experienced - the customer service was impeccable. We loved the food, the ports, the tours offered and the embarkation. This is highly recommended for any experienced or first time cruise passengers.

We were a little disappointed in our cruise, but I do agree in that it didn’t seem too crowded. And I loved the free laundry! (But if I had to pick, I’d rather have a more fun cruise than free laundry lol!)

Thanks for your positive review. We totally agree with you. The Discovery is a lovely ship. Much to enjoy on her. Glad you were able to celebrate your birthday on your Alaskan cruise.

This is such an encouraging review! We have booked 5 cabins for our family in February and we do love Princess but have never been on the Discovery. Thank you for sharing!!
