Review summary

The overall all is good. Good for first time cruise travel to me. But one time is enough to me. Won't go to Alaska again.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Excellent, no complains, except the waiting time for the foods in the dining room is a bit long, but you have no other places to go inside the ship. So it is OK to me.

Cabin / Stateroom

Very small, barely enough for 2 persons. No good for 4 persons.

Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

I only went to Mt. Roberts, and Mendenhall Glacier Park. Mt. roberts is OK, but the tram up to the mountain is quite expensive to me. $27 The Glacier Park is good.
