We have just returned from a 11 night Celebrity Cruisetour to Alaska. The four nights before the cruise included Anchorage, Talkeetna, Denali, and Alyeska. All the hotels were good with Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge being even nicer than Hotel Alyeska. It had bigger rooms, more restaurants, better food, coin laundy and friendly, helpful staff.
Celebrity Millennium has an excellent captain who leads the staff to provide great service, good food, and outstanding entertainment. We had a very comfortable cabin with an attentive steward, excellent waiters in the main dining room, good food in the all restaurants including the Olympia where the dinner was outstanding.
The captain arrived early in each port allowing us to dock in good locations and enabling passengers to be on time for tours. Our tours included: Taku Glacier Lodge Flight & Feast in Juneau, White Pass Railway & Historic City Highlights in Skagway, Ice Straits Point, Hoonah Sightseeing & Tribal Dance, and Ketchikan Explorer by Land & Sea. Each trip was outstanding. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and the scenery was great and each trip was worth the price paid.
Our cabin was great. It had a nice balcony, was in a quiet location, easy to access all parts of the ship, and had a great steward.
