Review summary

The cruise could have been better. The lack of quality food and entertainment was disapointing. The excursions for Jeaneau and Skagway were exceptional. Would look into another ship with better accommodations. I also did not like how they pushed disembarkation on day 2 of the cruise made you think about how rushed it was.

We just came back from our Alaskan cruise on Sunday and it was the best time ever. We felt we had excellent food,our rooms were always clean and fresh every time we came back! We can't wait to go back

We are cruising on the Emerald (again) in a few months. My wife and think she is an excellent ship all the way around...
