Our 14 day cruise and land tour was an incredible experience as first time cruisers and first time visitors to Alaska. In 14 days we had only rain of any consequence 3 times and in a one of those we were in a coach (40 passenger bus) where it's didn't really both us. So our review is perhaps tainted by the exceptional weather we experience between May 27- Jun10,
Things we really liked and learned on board:
1. Sailing north you probably want to be on the Starboard (right) side. Those are the even numbered staterooms.
Great. I'm 6'4" but still fit the shower fine. Was nice to be on the Aloha deck (12th deck). We were a couple steps from elevators and stairs. Being one floor away from Lido deck made it easy to get to the activities there as well as the sights to be seen on the other side of the ship. No noise problems.
brought a small portable speaker to be able to play music off our phones.
