Review summary

Fantastic trip! Weather was perfect every stop with sunny days and great temperatures. Seas were fairly calm the entire trip except for a couple nights of rocking. Had to stop at an unscheduled port to let a sick passenger off In Russia and as we approached a Volcano erupted ( smoke only). The ship was very clean and crew were very friendly everywhere we went. Best itenerary ever. One of the best cruises we have been on.

Embarkation

Vancouver was horrible.. Waiting almost 2 hours in line to get signed in. Lack of staff appeared to e the main reason.

Cool to visit Russia but the people were very to themselves and not very friendly. Not much to do on the stop. Great weather though
