Radiance class is our favorite and we wanted to see Alaska. The land trip was wonderful...all hotels were nice and the tour guide, Lynda, and bus driver, Ashley, were better than amazing! The ship staff were wonderful! The only reason for taking a star off is the main dining experience has gone down a bit. It was very clear that the wait staff and chefs are not able to handle milk ...
I booked a inside cabin (3615) and was very disappointed in it. It was right next to a fan that ran 24/7. The floor vibrated, the bed vibrated and it was very unpleasant. I tried to change my room but they said they were sold out. Later in the cruise we ate with a couple on their honeymoon and they told us that they upgraded them from a inside cabin to a balcony. I guess they had rooms for ...
We took our family on this cruise. Boarding went quickly. Our 3 rooms were next to each other, our ages are 70-6. We had three grandchildren 9, 8, and 6. Most of our party have been on the mega ships and smaller ships. We felt between the rock climbing wall, inside pool (during children's hours), and the children's activity room at night they were never bored. Plus with kids, in Alaska, we were ...
They called this the Radiance of the Sea but I was not seeing where it fit the definition of Radiance.
Very disappointed after traveling the distance that we had to arrive in our room and not find our luggage. It was disappointing we could not even freshen up for dinner with clean clothes. It became more of a disappointment when our luggage did not arrive at our rooms until after 8:00 ...
We chose this ship for the itinerary because it had the best ports and the most amount of time in the ports.
Really didn't like boarding the ship and having to walk a gauntlet of people hawking everything from the beverage package to specialty dining to WiFi access. We had plenty of opportunities to arrange for all that long before sailing. Just felt that they were always trying to make more ...
There was 9 of us (all different ages) and we had a great time. Boarding around noon (start time is 11) took us about an hour, I would go later next time... like 2ish. The two days at sea I didn't feel good, we had to make up time for leaving late so we were going faster then normal, Dramamine helps!! The ship was big but not too big with plenty of things to do - I was surprised at the lack of ...
I was looking for a Northbound Alaska cruise that had a great kids program. The cruise line has declined to the point that I would never pick it in the future. The meals were very average. They gave fancy name to food that you would have received at a Denny's. The kid program wasn't even close to the Disney program. The don't run the program all day so unless your need matches their set times ...
We reserved this cruise because we wanted to see Alaska, as well as the diverse life that Alaska and its surrounding waters has to offer. We were not disappointed. We booked a cruise tour, which was comprised of a 7 day cruise followed by a six day land tour.
Embarkation in Vancouver was a confusing mess. It took us awhile to get through, made worse by having to pass through US customs before ...
In 2015, we spent the entire summer touring the interior of Alaska in our motor home and vowed to come back on a cruise to enjoy the seaboard side.
Thus the booking of this southbound cruise starting in Seward on June 9-16, 2017. Although the weather was cloudy and rainy most of the time, we still got to see most of the beautiful scenery and enjoy a wonderful time on the Radiance of the Seas. ...
We thoroughly enjoyed our time onboard Radiance of the Seas. The ship was clean, well kept, had excellent staff, excellent entertainment, and a wonderful itinerary.
All of the public areas on the ship were very well maintained. We spent a lot of time in the Schooner Bar and Colony Club because that's where most of the activities we participated in were located. I think my only complaint would ...
