Island Princess Review

Additional details
Starting off in Anchorage, we were met by Princess reps who took care of our baggage and transported us to the Captain Cook Hotel. Even spotted a moose on our short ride to the hotel. Also met our new travel mates - and "fast friends" Barbara & Jim from Albany.
Next morning, we were up bright and early for our trip to McKinley Princess Lodge, where we were able to see Mt. McKinley, the majestic scenery and delicious sunshine. Our room was light and airy, just a short walk to the outdoor hot tub. BE SURE TO BRING YOUR BATHING SUITS TO THE LAND PORTION.
The next day featured a train trip to Denali Princess Lodge - which was scenic, relaxing and a lovely way to spend the day. Here we met two more "fast friends" -Elaine & Gary from Winnipeg. The food in the dining car was wonderful and the service friendly and superb.
Cabin Review
Dolphin 710. Covered balcony ensured complete privacy. The nightclubs are on the aft portion of the trip - no long hallways to navigate after a night of drinking and partying. The mini-suite's bathtub with shower was far more comfortable than the tiny showers in other accommodations. Two TV's were very convenient - one facing the three person sofa and the other, a very comfortable bed.
