Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was very good but was not hot. Enjoyed the convenience of dining times and seating accommodations.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Quality of instruction of "personal trainer" was exceptional and very helpful. Having popcorn at the "Screening Room" Movies was an extra touch.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Christina, our stateroom, attendance went over and above to be helpful and have our room in order.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very impressed with the stability of the ship. Decor was good but could use updating.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The restroom could use an update - looks dated. The hair blower is not a quality for drying hair thoroughly. It kept shutting off and had to keep finger on button in order to have blowing.

Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

5 out of 5
Too much emphasis on shopping. Sales personnel were too pushy

Sitka, Alaska

5 out of 5
Everything was amazing.

Ketchikan, Alaska

5 out of 5
Everything was great

Victoria, British Columbia

3 out of 5
Time to see was too short and too late in the day. Could not appreciate much of anything although the downtown buildings were beautiful.

Pros: The variety of daily activities

Cons: Have to pass the casino which allows smokers. Do not make non-smokers have to pass any area where smokers congregate.
