Entertainment

5 out of 5
The entertainment regarding Alaska was fantastic. We had the first woman to win the Iditarod - Libby Riddles who was awesome. We had a skipper from the Deadliest Catch show who was very entertaining. We had sled puppies who were cute. We had local rangers on board answering all questions. Overall fantastic local content.

We got an awesome upgrade from a window to a balcony. The room was newly refurbished and you couldn’t ask for better.
