Radiance of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The Radiance of the Seas cruise to Alaska was a once in a lifetime cruise for me. I very much enjoyed the itinerary and the sights. For the most part the crew was very friendly and glad to be of service. There were a few bartenders that were pushing the drink package the first two days of the cruise - perhaps they are compensated by how many they sign up. All in all, I am grateful to have made the journey on the Radiance.

A great experience would highly recommend. Was upset in lack of shows/entertainment in the evenings. Great bar staff though so that was helpful. ;) Ship is beautiful, pools are VERY small, but we weather was not good to enjoy pool, but hot tubs were very useful.

My only real complaint about this cruise (and it applies to most of them these days and most cruise lines) is the push to make people duct tape a cell phone to their head. Bars try not to tell you they have a printed menu. They want you to use damn QR codes (and readers) to even see the drink menu and prices. I hate this nonsense. The ship doesnt even have maps and screens with ocean depth and weather etc anymore, again pushing you to do QR code nonsense. I am on vacation and the last thing I want to do is be constantly on a cell phone. What do people do who don't have one?

First time to Alaska, would definitely do it again, but maybe on a different ship.

Our first cruise. Seward embarkation was not great at all. Ship was great. Cabin was comfortable. People maintaining cabin were nice. Wind Jammer was awesome. Formal dining was awesome. Need to have better Indian/South Asian cuisine that was repeated almost every day and was OK but needs improvement. Safety was ok. Programs are good but can cater more for kids in the age group of 9-17 as we felt very limited. Not much stage shows other than one comedy evening that got repeated twice. Pretty boring. Movies are only two for 8 days and that is also not having choices if you want to go for a movie. Cuisine in Wind Jammer was the best and the people serving are amazing. Please keep them happy as they did a great job. Interesting to see one Ping pong table for the entire ship is really not fun. We sat for 1 hour to get a table play. Hair salon and the crew are nice. Disembarkation was nice and easy. Temperature in the ship was well maintained. Overall a great experience and lots of good improvements to make.

This was our 7th cruise to Alaska, it never gets old. I highly recommend everyone who can should take the time to visit this beautiful state.

Our best cruise so far, after 7! Our captain was simply the best, and many of the staff mentioned how good a boss he is! Loved the itinerary and all of the added activities!

Alaska is jaw dropping beautiful! There is no way pictures can do it justice! It is a place that one has to visit!!! We are grateful that we were able to do back to back cruise; both north and south bound! Thank you !

Great experience. I highly recommend Radiance of the Seas for an Alaska trip.

While the views were gorgeous and the service was superb, the ship was rather old and lacked amenities that together with pricey events and smaller ports of call, created a lot of free time spent not doing much.

Staff was wonderful. Cabin steward and waiters went out of their way to be helpful. Everything was kept Very Clean and there were hand sanitation dispensers everywhere.

Cruise was nice. Weather was perfect and staff were exceptional.

The mountains and glaciers were spectacular. Ship was very safe and clean. The staff was exceptional

Wonderful experience. Alaska truly a beautiful place to visit. The crew very friendly and helpful. I appreciated the fact that all crew members wore masks. Of course they are trying to keep at bay covid so they can work, but shows they are concerned for health of passengers as well.

This was our second time to Alaska This time unfortunately weather was really bad. Also ,sadly, the effects of Covid were noticeable . While the crew was working very hard, they couldn’t make up the shortage of manpower.

Stay away from Royal Caribbean. They are subpar compared to Princess Cruises. This was my second time visiting Alaska and I'm sorry that I picked Royal Caribbean. The ship is nice but the entertainment and dining room service (i.e. reservations, food selections, temperature of the prepared food) was a joke.

Celebrated our 50th on the ship. Made it a wonderful memory.

We all have a wonderful trip this cruise. From Vancouver Canada to Alaska. The service in the ship and the room service, the waiters the food are all excellent. Thank you . I will book another cruise in the next year

Reasonably priced quality cruise. It made for some great memories and stories. The entertainment was enjoyable and the food was fantastic.
