I had an excellent time on the ship all the people were nice and friendly. I don't understand how you could have a bad experience. I have done many cruises before I have had a great experience every time

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I don't know what people talk about having bad experiences. I have not had one yet with all the cruises I've taken.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The first thing the kids did when they got on is swim. We hit the basketball court and then pickleball.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
I enjoyed the show the especially the variety act the singer was amazing.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5
I wish the kids were able to interact with the adults with the games and activities. There was an age difference in my kids they couldn't play together.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
My son was sick the first night I think eating too much food and seasick. He had thrown up. She was very helpful and friendly and kind about the whole thing. Miss seeing the animal towels made though.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Overall everything was great!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had two adults two kids cabins were great. I have had a Balcony and bigger cabins in the past but knew that we did not spend much time in them. So we opted for just a window view this time.

Ship tip

If you check in your luggage just make sure you have swim suit with you. The best time to swim is right when you get on there's no one.

Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

5 out of 5
We had a whale watching tour and the guys were really nice. Didn't see as much whales as past cruises but it was still nice. I think the morning is more active then afternoon for seeing more whales.

Skagway, Alaska

5 out of 5
Skagway we had no excursions but did them in the past it was nice to relax and enjoy the town and have some yummy ice cream!

Ketchikan, Alaska

5 out of 5
Not a lot of time in this port. We had no excursions planned have done them in the past so it was nice to walk around town and had some yummy ice cream!

Seattle, Washington

5 out of 5
I have lived in the Seattle area 15 years it was nice to come back to visit but not to live again. I think Seattle needs to clean up their act as far as cleanliness. It has gone downhill since I have lived here. It's looking like California. Exiting the cruise ship was smooth and quickly.

Cruise Glacier Bay

5 out of 5
This is not a port they just turn around the ship it lasts about an hour beautiful Alaska scenery I have seen the fjords in the past. Alaska is so darn beautiful!!

Victoria, British Columbia

5 out of 5
