Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff always had smiles, even behind their masks. we had the awesome privilege to meet some crew members that had never seen wildlife before and we were able to teach one crew member how to use binoculars and see the joy on their face as they saw seals and other sealife with their own eyes.
Ship Quality

This may be the oldest ship in NCL's fleet, but, she was spectacular.

We bid on a cabin upgrade and got moved up to a balcony. Absolutely amazing! The cabin was spacious and the balcony was Fantastic. The cabin was always clean and the temperature was perfect.
Ship tip
Enjoy the back of the ship as much as possible. great spot to watch the world go by.
Seattle is Seattle. We arrived 2 days prior to our cruse and got the City Pass and had an absolutely fantastic time. we stayed at the Bell Town Inn walked to the space needle, Pike Place Market, Chihuly Garden and Glass Seattle Aquarium, The Seattle Great Wheel so many things to see and do. we walked everywhere. We also did a 4 hour excursion on debarkation day ending at the airport.
We absolutely LOVE Hoonah. We booked another whale watching tour. This time we booked it ourselves. Glacier Wind Charters, a family owned and operated. Captain Shawn his wife Teresa and their son Captain Casey operate a custom built whale watching vessel the "Apogee". What an amazing time with this family and boy did we see whales. Icy Strait Point is a hive of activity. The gondolas are a great way to see some awesome wildlife.
Our helicopter/dogsled tour got canceled do to weather so we went to the Mendenhall Glacier and a Salmon hatchery. Then we walked around town. Great time.
