We had an excellent adventure aboard the ms Westerdam to Alaska. This was our first BIG cruise. Our accommodations were exactly what we hoped for. Everyone, from the front desk staff to the staff that took care of us and our room were extraordinarily helpful and accommodating. They were always available when we needed them or had questions. The food was amazing; each and every day such delicious and beautifully presented meals, not to mention all the eating options available to us. We especially enjoyed room service on those mornings we just wanted to sleep in and ease into our day of activities. Speaking of activities, there were so many to choose from each day aboard ship and many activities to choose from on land. We thoroughly enjoyed every port we visited. We met some lovely fellow travelers on our cruise and look forward to cruising again in the future.
