Cruise Glacier Bay

5 out of 5
Cruising Glacier Bay was the absolute highlight of the Cruise! Especially enjoyed walking out into the ship's bow. Breathtaking!

KETCHIKAN (WARD COVE), ALASKA

2 out of 5
No excursion. Port was too far from town and not enough time at port. We did, however, really like the mill/museum shop/store . Great live music and fair prices on merchandise. So we spent most of our time shopping there, then back to ship.

Victoria, British Columbia Did not visit port

Our excursion was cancelled. Not enough time in port and the weather was not good.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very organized and easy. We were pleasantly surprised at how smooth it went.
