Review summary

It would have been so much better if the Captain would have done more innerpassage verse open ocean on the first two days. Seas were very rough and it ruined those days. I understand that they file a trip, but just like on an airplane, the captain looks for calmer air. Our ship could have moved off the seas at Graham Island and cut hours of rough seas off the trip - just saying. Glacier Bay was beautiful and having the Rangers on board was a nice add.

Food was only okay; The best meal and service was at the Steakhouse that we paid extra. The second time we went there - not as good. Bars were great - good drinks and good service.
