This was a bucket list trip for my wife and I. We had a blast on the cruise / land tour with Princess. The ports of call were each excellent! The tour of Glacier National Park was astonishing! I would highly recommend it to anyone!!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate at the same time each night in the same dining room. The meals were outstanding. I am blown away at just how good the food was. Not a weak meal during the weak!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The tour's activity directors seemed tired and ready for a break.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The musicians seemed to be genuinely good. Disappointed there were no real 'shows' during the cruise.

Ship Quality

Getting to the Amalfi dining room was a challenge. It was not an easy location to find day after day.

Wish I could have spent four more hours in Juneau. The people I met were friendly and helpful. The food I had in town was excellent. Great experience. Loved the Mendenhall glacier!

This was a cool little town. The bus tour guide who took us up to the top of the mountain was super - funny, helpful, genuinely loved the town. (She lives there year round!) Great place!!
