Review summary

The itinerary was great. We arrived in all of the ports on time or early, which was really nice. Would definitely recommend getting a balcony. There's so much to see as you're sailing, it was nice to do that from my own cabin/balcony.

Embarkation

The staff/crew in Seward were really nice, helpful, and most important, efficient!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Disappointed with the overall quality of food and service in the main dining rooms, which we tried multiple times. We did not try any of the specialty restaurants. The food at the buffets was very good, but difficult to find seating at times.

Ship tip

Avoid wasting money in at the Spa. Overpriced and one of the worst manicures I've ever had. They're more focused on selling you expensive products.
