Review summary
Ship was nice although there were some things in need of repair. Food was very good. Deserts were better in the dining room than in the buffet. Service was lacking most of the time. We had several issues. We complained to management and he apologized profusely. He also sent some strawberries to our room. The service was better in that restaurant the rest of the trip, but lacked in others. One had one fantastic server our first night named Red. Our room steward, Wilson, was fantastic. We did a lot of the activities onboard. There was plenty to do. Entertainment was ok. Matt Marcy was really good. The ports were lots of fun. We didn't do any excursions because of the cost. We had 9 in our party. We did rent a van in Skagway and took taxis in the other ports. We did some shopping and found the prices in the souvenir shops in Alaska to be very reasonable. Be sure to pick up the coupon books outside some of the shops. Their is some great deals in them. Would of liked more time in Ketchikan and Victoria. We felt like we were bombarded with sales pitches on the ship. We didn't get drink packages because when we read the fine print, it would of required everyone in the room to get one. Drink packages were just too expensive! Bottled water charge to preorder was ridiculous!! All in all, we really enjoyed our vacation and would recommend this cruise to others.
