We went on Alaskan cruise with 4 other couples. It was the greatest experience to see how Mother Nature evolved over 1000’s of years. A picture of a glacier does it no justice. The beautiful wildlife is beyond anyone’s expectations. NCL Bliss was designed just for Alaska and they did a fantastic job. The 15 th floor observation deck is wonderful for viewing all that Alaska has to offer. I would recommend NCL to anyone. Have done 7 Cruise’s with no regrets. The entertainment on board was outstanding, Jersey Boys was as good as a Broadway production. The musical Havana will be Broadway bound for sure. The Bliss is a floating city in it self. Every meal was better than the last. We did a few specialty restaurants and their Steak House was excellent.I would recommend the dinning package just for this reason. I also recommend the spa package if you like to relax and pamper yourself. Remember your in Alaska and the weather really isn’t pool friendly. Do try and ride the Go Karts!!
