Review summary

Beautiful scenery from the ship. Always something going on that was interesting such as Bingo, Spa treatments , art acuctions. Food was good. Great cruise experience for my first time.

Ports of call

Ketchikan, Alaska

3 out of 5

Salmon hatchery was a donation to the local Indial tribe-disappointing. Didn't have enough time in town. Too many tourist shopping traps--I wanted to buy gold nuggets, but all the jewelery options were the same as in the Carribean. Too many diamonds and semi-perious stones.

Don't Miss: Harley store. The sales people are interesting.

Juneau, Alaska

We went on a shore excursion to9 the Mendenhall glacier and didn't get to see Juneau. The ship should stay longer in the prt so we couldl see the town instead of rushing to get back to the ship

Don't Miss: N/A since I did not get to see Juneau, except on the shore excursion

Prince Rupert, British Columbia
