Top notch service from everyone on the staff. Our room stewards, Rio and Mikeal were extremely professional and attentive.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship had a well thought out design, making it easy to find your way around the decks. It appeared that the ship is cleaned and maintained several times a day.
Cabin / Stateroom

This cabin was a perfect size for two with plenty of storage, a small fridge, modern bath, and private balcony. Our stewards kept the room very clean.
Ship tip
Keep the Bow channel on so as not to miss and messages from the Captain and Cruise Director. Although messages are broadcast throughout the ship, it was our experience that people did not stop talking. Making it impossible to hear the message.
The best weather day of the cruise! We took the narrow gauge train to Frazier, BC and enjoyed the scenery. Mia did an excellent job narrating the story of the Gold Rush.
Our first choice tour was cancelled so we opted for a Duck Boat Tour with Jonathan and Bryce. It was so much fun! Even though it rained, we still saw the sights of Ketchican City and the harbor. It was our first trip on a duck boat and we would definitely do it again.
