May is to early to see bears and salmon unless you go to raptor or bear center where they take care of injured animals. Weather was great, only rained in Sitka. We had such a great time we signed up for another cruise. We’ve been on larger ships but this size was great for us.

Cabin / Stateroom

Enjoyed our cabin very much. It was easy to move around and had plenty of space. Beds were so comfortable. We had a balcony which we really enjoyed.
Ship tip
Very relaxing, older crowd. If your looking for late night parting it’s a very small group.
Great! Hired taxi with 4 others from ship. Cost was $40 hour which we split 6 ways.Saw bears at center, saw bald eagle at totem pole forest. It rained and was cold in Sitka.
Beautiful 71 degree day. Went on whale watch tour with Lucas, Danielle and Captain Dan and saw whales. Then went to Mendelson glacier and saw a waterfall next to it.
70 degree day. Very lively, large port. Lots of shopping and restaurants available at the port as you disembark. Duck tour was entertaining. Saw several bald eagles by the pier as duck vehicle exited the ocean.
Very large city and lots to see and do. We didn’t do excursions. Lots of city ambassadors around to answer questions and give directions. The train to airport is couple blocks away so you can walk to train. Buy tickets at station. There’s a senior ticket price.
