The itinerary was why we chose this cruise. (Did the Vancouver RT on Celebrity with most of the same family in '92.) Traveled with a group of about 20 family and close friends.
Alaska is a port intensive cruise, and most anything one does while in port will be fun. I have decided to concentrate my review on the ship, line, and Carnival cruise experience.
Arrived in Anchorage two days before to join friends who live on the Kenai. Took the train to Whittier at 10am on Wed. Nice trip. Embarkation VERY SMOOTH and QUICK.
