We saw the activities and itineraries, so we decided to try this ship. Embarkation and disembarkation went amazingly.(note that we were in the Haven). The cabin was amazing, as was the food.(especially Coco's). As for the entertainment, the shows weren't that great, but the laser tag and go kart were amazing. The people in the haven were extremely polite and cordial, and the haven area in general was splendid. I thought the ports and shore excursions were great; in Ketchikan, we visited George Inlet lodge to eat crabs. We also saw a ton of bald eagles. In Juneau, the Mendenhall glacier was fabulous, as was Nugget Falls. Up in Skagway, the White Pass and Yukon Rail landscape was like that of Lord of the Rings. In Victoria, at Butchart Gardens, the air was fresh and the garden was well laid out. We went with one kid and he loved it! If given the choice, I would go on the ship in the same room again.
