BEST TIME WAS OFF THE SHIP...GREAT VIEWS WHILE SAILING, FOOD WAS HORRIBLE

Too many bratty kids on the boat! We chose this line because of the price. We got a very good discount. Well, i guess we got we paid for. The best time of the cruise was when we were off of the boat. However, the last stop in vicoria was very short. Just enough time to grab some better local food off the boat and take a brief look around...same thing with ketchican, barely enough time to ...

We arrived at the Seattle pier to find no signs or people to tell us where to go. You actually have to take you bag to a small room that is not labeled and then goto another building that is not labeled to check in for the ship. We found ourselves waiting in the wrong lines. Then were were stuck on a small room for hours waiting to board the ship. There were no refreshments and we were packed in ...

We chose this cruise for our annual family vacation. It was our second cruise with NCL, and the first to Alaska. We stayed in the Pink Diamond Haven Suite (10504), which was fantastic with it's two balconies (double-long port-side and forward balconies). We were able to see whales and dolphins clearly off of both balconies, and the visit to Glacier Bay from the privacy and comfort of our ...

Embarkation - not enough seats in embarkation area. Stood for an hour before boarding ship at noon. Ship - Once on board, had a wonderful frozen peach margarita and husband had a Bahama mama. Headed to buffet. Was pretty good. Cabins were ready around 1. Steward came as soon as we got into cabin. I asked for robes. Rollie was back in 2 seconds with them. He kept room spotless the entire week, ...

lorifl2 reviewed this same cruise taken the week before ours. I will only write about different experiences, so read hers too. This was our first cruise, so we can't compare to other lines. Scroll to the end for details on accessibility and gluten free info. We chose this cruise based on price, destination, and accessibility. We had the economical inside cabin and my disabled Father had an ...

We took the Inside Passage round trip Seattle cruise on the June12th sailing. My husband and I had previously sailed on NCL twice - in 2011 in Baltic and in 2013 in the Mediterranean and loved NCL. This time we brought my sister and my 18 year old handicapped niece with us. It was my sister's first time on NCL and my niece's first cruise. My travel agent and I spent a lot of time comparing ...

This was my very first cruise and Norwegian nailed it. The accommodations were good, the food was good, the ship was real nice and the entertainment was great. We flew from BWI to Seattle, WA on Friday the 10th. We toured downtown Seattle, took the ferry over to Bainbridge Island and we visited Pikes Public Market on Saturday. Then on Sunday we took an SUV from the hotel to our ship. We ...

We chose this cruise because it was round trip from Seattle, it went through the inside passage and it cruised Glacier Bay. The crew was wonderful and I liked the freestyle dining at night. We left the ship, went through customs and got to the airport easier than any cruise I have been on. My complaint is with the size of the cabins and the lack of eating space in the buffet areas. We booked a ...

Poorly prepared and they were out of quite a few items Rubber and ...

Layout is terrible - you're supposed to follow the fish to find the front of the boat. The only place I saw fish carpeting was in the hallway to the rooms. Movie night was located in the 2 story atrium. The first floor has a very limited number of seats so we sat in O'Sheehan's, where the employees began to close up for the night. They gathered all the bottles of liquor and placed them in a ...
