Review summary

This was a fantastic cruise to Alaska.  I have been to Alaska several times on business but I had never taken a cruise through the inside passage.  What a spectacular place.  The cruise was very relaxing and the tours we took were all after 10AM, so there was no rushing to get somewhere.  The crew were all very nice and the ship was beautiful.  We saw so many beautiful places, got to play with the musher dogs and ate incredible food.  It could not have been a better trip.

Cabin / Stateroom

This was a great cabin at the very rear of the ship, so there was nothing blocking our view in any direction.

Ship tip

Chops Grille is a real bargain and the food is delicious. The Mystery Dinner Theater was a lot of fun and the food was excellent. I would also take the time to go to the Aurora Theater for some of the shows in the evening.

Did the ship offer anything special for Alaska or just the usual RC?

Thank you for the review. I am looking into Alaska so reviews of different ships and itineraries are always helpful
