Review summary

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and the cruise line, having sailed with HAL on an Alaskan cruise.  We were pleased with the ship, the crew, the length of the cruise, and most of the ports of call.  We liked the fact that the ship had very few children on it.  It was mostly retirees, and that suited us well.  We look forward to sailing with Holland America again.

How was your Alaskan trip? Which ship? We are planning on going there in 2017 or 2018.
