Alaska Cruise Reviews

I am very very disappointed with the cruise to glacier Alaska , I only bought this cruise to see the glacier and we could not see ANYTHING.. All that I see was beautiful mountains that I see constantly because I live in Canada and we are surrounded by it , I was very excited for this cruise only to see the glacier that the pictures when we go to the royal Caribbean’s page to buy it shows .. the ...

This is our 5th cruise with Princess. We’ve always had great experiences until this one. I’m not sure we’ll sail with Princess again. We took this cruise with some family members. That’s the only thing that saved it. As with almost all of the previous reviews we had ports canceled and late arrivals. The buffet closed earlier and offered less. The food was often cold. The crew members and ...

We have been frequent Royal Caribbean cruisers and wanted to try something different. We thought Princess might fill the bill. Alaska was on the bucket list and whale watching was at the top. The cruise we booked included stops in Juneau, Whittier, Ketchikan, Icy Strait, Victoria BC, Skagway and Glacier Bay. Our excursions included 2 whale watching tours, and the Glacier tour with clambake. ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to see Alaska up close and felt like this would be a greater possibility on on a smaller ship. We were able to cruise through Glaser Bay. Absolutely breathtaking! This cruise was everything we asked for and more. The staff was so attentive. We have not had service like this on the other crusie lines that we have been on. The service on the Lido Deck ...

The itinerary will change and it affects your Alaska ports. It’s a known issue but the company withholds information so you can’t cancel. The food is also awful. Nothing like Princess of earlier years. Horrible. The kid experience is good except food options and quality for the kid food is limited. The rooms are nice and service is good…except wait times were up to two hours for delivery. ...

My mother and father in law took us on this dream Family vacay (16 of us). It was such a disappointing trip. The crew was nice but the ship was old and broken resulting in cancelled ports and excursions. Our time in ports was mostly at night for limited hours. We didn’t see any of Alaska. Excursions were cancelled and we seemed stuck at sea with no fun activities to fill our time. The food was ...

Booked this for 2020, and finally got to go on 2022. Not Princess’s fault but what a disappointment this ship and cruise line were. The experience was steamy garbage. Food was subpar. Specialty dining was impossibly slow and not hot like it should be when it finally gets to you. Buffet was so slim and poor that I think I lost weight on this trip. Entertainment was weak with limited options in ...

The Crown Princess should not have sailed. Princess committed fraud knowing that this ship was failing mechanically. We spent a lot of money to not make it to one port after losing two engines and have all other ports at only 4-5 hours a piece. The Alaska cruise that didn't really see Alaska. The food was meh. The ship was outdated. We had failing HVAC on a balcony and luke warm water at ...

Nightmare embarkation, no so-called health check as noted by Celebrity. Ship looks and feels old both on the interior and exterior. Outside areas rusting and missing paint. Wood surfaces, tables, stairs etc. were worn to the point where the finish was completely gone and rubber strips for traction on the stairs were peeling off. The back center wooden stairs from deck 14 to 15 were left flooded to ...

Cruise was satisfactory, however the staff was inadequate and inexperienced. We were disappointed that there seemed to be no serious attempt at providing the social experience or entertainment experience that had been advertised and promised. We were continually told that the staff was short due to covid. We were continually asked by the staff how we wanted something, food or service, then ...
