Creator's Key Takeaways

It was such a refreshing experience and they had a lot of sushi options as well.

The food was great. We had, I think, one dinner and I think we just ordered maybe the wrong thing. But everything else was excellent.

The service was fantastic. And the the food choices were great.

It was just such a comfortable relaxing adult cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a concierge room for access to the thermal spa.
Consider the train transfer from Anchorage to Whittier for a scenic journey.
Try the specialty restaurants, especially the French restaurant.
