Review summary

We loved the Radiance for Alaska. We thought the food was fine, service fine, entertainment great, ship beautiful for an older ship and of course , the destination awesome. We had an inside cabin 4035 which was convenient for us and enabled us to spend more money on excursions. It is up to individuals to do research as far as what they’re looking for, but we loved Alaska in May. No salmon run but the ice in the Fjords and snow covered mountains were a sight to behold, and it stays light a long time. There are always trade offs but all in all a wonderful time is available for you if you’re ready to embrace Alaska.

Temps this year were 40 to 65. Layers are necessary. Another family member went in May another year and had warmer weather. But the weather is not going to change the good time .

Adventure Bound in Juneau was our favorite. We also did Southeast Aviation floatplane tour in Ketchikan. That was beautiful and we did Glacier Wind whale watch in Icy Strait and that was a lot of fun. In Seward we did Kenai Fjords tour. My husband and I enjoyed everything we did. I did research a lot on the things we could do before we went. I booked all excursions privately. If you research you will find What is best for you. Have fun planning. Look at pictures and reviews on the cruise forums.
