Review summary
The Alaska cruise aboard the Rhapsody of the Seas was a wonderful Alaska experience. The Glacier we saw was Dawes Glacier on Endicott Arm due to water levels. The Captain managed to turn the ship 360 degrees in a channel that was very tight (so tight that my husband didn't believe me when I told him the Captain said that he would rotate the ship) so that we could get lovely views of the glacier from all over the ship. The Captain was very friendly and present, and alerted us to whales whenever there was a good sighting. We were very lucky with the weather, very little rain, only the morning in Skagway, and lovely summer temps and sun. Victoria is a wonderful city, very colorful and welcoming with flowers everywhere. We only walked around the city, and were very pleased with the visit. It was a lovely cruise.
