Recommend with this caveat, service ranges from execellent to poor. Food can be good but did not exceed my expectations as did food on prior NCL (before free style) and celebrity

Ports of call

Prince Rupert, British Columbia

3 out of 5
Lots of eagles. Almost no shopping. If shopping is your thing do it before Prince Rupert. Not much to see in town. This is perhaps a good time to take a nature tour.

Juneau, Alaska

3 out of 5
seems like a fun town, but only had a short time in port

Ketchikan, Alaska

3 out of 5
Take a hike in the near by forest for free. Very good and is free

Skagway, Alaska

3 out of 5
Very historic, take the free city tour offered by the National Park Service

Pros: Embarkation and debarkation carry your bags and walk off

Cons: Food in "free" dining rooms was very average and below previous cruise experiences

Recommends Norwegian Star? Yes!
