This ship and Holland America were fantastic! We explored Vancouver for a few days before setting sail from there, and both the embarkation and disembarkation were organized like a finely-calibrated engine.

The ship was extremely well-maintained and cleaned. Our cabin was fabulous in size and accoutrements, aided by Adit and Abdul, our cabin stewards. If you couldn't find a dining room or situation to your liking, there had to be something wrong with you. The Lido Buffet was clean and the food was plentiful, and the options - from burgers, hot dogs and Mexican to top-drawer experiences at The Pinnacle and Il Canaletto - were perfect. You could always find a seat in one of the dining areas or sit by the pool. Ahhhhh!

Every day brought a fabulous line-up of things to do, from a towel-folding demonstration and bingo to Vegas-quality dancers and singers. Never a dull moment - unless you just wanted to sit on a balcony and watch the gorgeous Alaskan and Canadian sights roll by.
