Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food in MDR was ok, not great, but always well presented. Good waitstaff. Breakfast buffet was crowded and hectic. Not a pleasant experience. But you could find decent food if you searched hard enough - and asked the crew.

Concerto Dining Room

Quite enjoyable. Wine selection could be better though.

Chopsticks Noodle Bar

Serves Chinese nodle soup dishes. Tasty, but would also enjoy more Asian noodle dishes - yaki soba, phad Thai...

Cabin / Stateroom

A415 is a nice cabin for 2 people. The balcony is angled and gives nice viewing. Everything electrical/plumbing worked perfectly.

Ship tip

Be patient and tolerant of others.

Fantastic whale watching. We took a private tour here which took us to the Mendenhall Glacier after a full morning of boating. A very good day!

Vancouver (Canada Place), British Columbia

Worth a couple extra days.

Cruise College Fjord, Alaska

First time here. Beautiful. We had to alter our dinner plans to fully view the fiord and multiple tidewater glaciers. (We were there 6 - 8pm.)

Whittier (Anchorage), Alaska

5 out of 5
Only there for disembarkation.

Ketchikan, Alaska

5 out of 5
Perfect weather. Did an excursion through the ship. Very happy with that. Creek Street is fun, too. But you can just do that on your own.
