Review summary

This was our first cruise and we had a wide range of people we were traveling with from 16-67 years old. There was a number of activities on board for all ages and tastes. The food choices satisfied and exceeded our expectations. We chose a sushi restaurant for one of our premium dining experiences. The sushi was superb and was by far better than some local sushi restaurants in our home area. The highlight of the cruise for me was going to ports in Alaska and seeing the wilderness from the boat. Excursions into Alaska and British Columbia were enjoyable though a bit crowded due to the popularity of the cruise.

We attended many venues and the events in the Stardust Theater were okay, but definitely not spectacular. There was a nice range of music throughout the smaller venues.

Clean and comfortable. We were apprehensive about an inner stateroom but wanted to save the money for our excursions. We were pleasantly surprised with the size and comfort. No regrets!
