Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

We took in 5 shows throughout the cruise 2 were outstanding, 3 were just ok. Of those three one of the comedians just wasn’t funny and used crudeness to make his audience laugh. We walked out. The “Dreams” performance was outstanding!

Greatest asset Royal Caribbean has going. Alaska’s beauty is #1, amazing, hardworking and kind staff is a close # 2. Thx RC!

Ship tip

Don’t waste your time on purchasing the wifi package. Even our FREE onboard texting using the app wasn’t reliable most of the week.

Thanks for your review. Don’t expect clear weather in Alaska most of the time. Most of the time it’s overcast and rainy.

Thanks for the review, is the port in Skagway open? I've read it's been closed and will be closed for a few more months. Thanks

Alaska is beautiful! We’ve gone 3 times in early May. Twice weather was great, once mediocre. But we love that everything is just opening up, fresh and new, and that there’s snow on the mountains!
