Review summary

Smooth sailing with mature passengers. An Alaskan cruise is a must for everyone, and this 92000 ton ship is great. Fabulous scenery with good food to boot. Walking through the ports of call is a great way to experience Alaska and Whittier's history as a military town in WW2 is fascinating. If you have more time, take the extended excursion to Denali Park to experience the northern lights and polar bears.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The pizza and small ice cream cone snacks on the pool deck was just right

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Good mix and high quality. One of the singers must frequent the midnight buffet. Fire drill done professionally.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Smiles everywhere.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Big enough to be stable with not too many passengers and crew on board.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Can't expect a King size bed with a hot tub. The closet and shower were functional.

Pros: Awesome tranquility in the glaciers and the fiords

Cons: Sushi was mediocre, and excessive photo shoots, bridge games can be better
