Review summary

We've always wanted to go to Alaska and NCL provided the perfect venue to do so. The ship itself was great, as were each of the ports we stopped at along the way. Highly recommend it!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Overall it was smooth. Paid extra for priority access, but not sure how the service was different than everyone else's.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The main dining room was excellent considering it's complimentary. Lots to choose from and the good tasted very good. Some of the smaller complimentary locations had great food, but much slower in terms of service. Buffets were way faster.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Kids utilized the ping pong tables, hot tub, fitness center and arcade. Sadly the arcade cost extra though.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We watched two shows - Jersey Boys and Six- and both were excellent performances.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Ship personnel were always courteous and helpful!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was always well cleaned. Layout was tricky for us given we had a suite in the middle of the floor. So there was a long walk from elevator/stairs to the room.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a mini-suite for the 3 of us. That was a great size, especially with a balcony. Felt like an extension of the room. Steward always kept our room immaculate.

Ship tip

Book your off shore excursions in advance. It saved us a lot of time and trouble and our tickets were printed and left b in the room for us.

Ports of call

Sitka, Alaska

4 out of 5
The port was beautiful. I think the excursion we chose was a little boring for our kids (historic nature walk).

Juneau, Alaska
