Review summary

Pretty amazing… could be that we live in south Texas and were just tired of the 100degree heat, but we loved it. Also if retired military/vet mention it for discount! They had a great military reception, challenge coins, patches, and free pics.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We thought the food was great and bar tenders were out of this world. Try the Malting Old Fashioned and Bushwacker at the Observation deck.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Enjoyed the go carts, comedians, bands, laser tag, bowling, art shows, painting, game shows, condensed Broadway shows, and more. Don’t miss the couples game shows… those can be gunner than the paid comedians.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great bands …two of them we went to see ALL their shows! signup and The Beatles (from Argentina).

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Waiters were fantastic. We had sone issues with our room, but did not ruin the trip.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I thought there were plenty of places to hang out from observation deck to outside to balcony to The District…

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Little small. Bathroom was good sized. Great views from balcony. Saw some whales, chunks of ice.

Ship tip

The ship ran hot inside and cold outside. Yes, the ports where a bit short, so plan your time.

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

5 out of 5
Check out the market by pier (Gum wall) or museums in Seattle!

Sitka, Alaska

4 out of 5
I would book and excursion. Not a lot to do here.

Juneau, Alaska

5 out of 5
Great Tram. Went whale watching and saw 10 whales! They were everywhere.

Icy Strait Point (Hoonah), Alaska

5 out of 5
Hiked our butts off, great tram and book the zip line ahead. It sells out.

Ketchikan, Alaska

5 out of 5
Really enjoyed the lumberjack show. Salmon were running!

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Could have been more organized had us snake through the whole ship.
