Island Princess

Sail date: May 22, 2006

Ship: Island Princess

Review summary

We thought the ship was great, and we enjoyed most the anytime dining. We prefer to dine alone, rather than with a number of other people, so that met our needs extremely well.

Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

3 out of 5
The whale watching was awesome, but I wasn't impressed with Juneau. There was a cool little cafe we found right across from the marina.
Don't Miss: whale watching and the Mendenhall glacier.

Ketchikan, Alaska

Liked the town, and would come back. The fishing was expensive not to get a bite, and the sportfishing was longer than 4 hours, without a drink or lunch offered. If you're going to continue to offer this vendor, I would tell passengers to bring food and drink.
Don't Miss: not sure.....

Skagway, Alaska

very quaint town, and saw a whale on our kayaking trip in Haines. I would go back here. We also rented bikes and road around town. Great little town.
