This was my second time on the jewel (first time cruised from NYC) I was pleasantly surprised they revamped the ship nicely. We selected a back cabin facing the back so we could see as much as possible - this was a great option however I did get seasick on a sea day.

The spa was a little sketchy this time around with the masseuse offering me "free" products if I bought some other stuff - well i fell for it but had buyers remorse and returned it - well when they didn't see one of the products on the receipt they went ballistic - i think the girl got fired.

Anyway, the excursion were great esp the Photography Sea/Land excursion. We spent a couple hours on the water seeing whales, eagles, seals etc with great photo ops. Then a hike on a glacier - just amazing. The other excursion was a bus trip into Yukon Terriority and took the train back - again great photo opps! Read more
