Sail Date: Sep 2016
Cabin: Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony

Chose the cruise for the location. It was a short flight from Phoenix and my friend had never cruised before and we liked the ports of call.

Enjoyed all the ports of call and the availability of assistance at each port of call. I choose to do my own exploring and not to use ship shore excursions and there was plenty of information and assistance at each port of call.

Service on the ship was good, but it was evident that they were very short-staffed and personnel in all areas were extremely stressed by the expectations of their employer.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin E1

Cabin was okay and well laid out. Bed was extremely uncomfortable. Only one chair available for sitting and reading inside cabin and impossible to lie in bed and read. Balcony was nice, but weather was mostly too inclement to sit outside.

Port Reviews

San Francisco

Found my own tours once docked. Great experience with CitySightseeing hop on - hop off tour.

Victoria

We were late getting into port because of high winds. Found a taxi tour on the dock and was very pleased with the tour of Victoria. Butchart Gardens were closed due to damage from high winds.
