Alaska's Inside Passage was awesome. Stunning scenery. Stops were great; crowds were well managed. Lots of shore excursions available from ship and from 3rd parties. All smooth.

Ship is new, so it's clean and everything seems to work. Some of the staff were really helpful. Some...

Norwegian heavily markets the race track and laser tag on this. Ridiculous. Everything fully booked 2 hours after boarding. Crazy. Seems those features exist just for cool pictures on website, not for use by guests. We got one ride each in the full week. Sucked; spent most of the time parked. Never could get in laser tag. Awesome waterslides, but a bit brisk on Alaskan cruise. But at least you could ride them.

Nice cabin. Awesome views. Good size with good storage.

Port Reviews

Seattle

No formal excursion. Just walked around the city. Nice place.

Victoria

No formal excursion. Easy bus access to downtown; great service. Walked around and daughter went to piercing shop. Nice town, maybe over-touristed a bit. But friendly locals, excellent restaurants, etc. Probably worth spending more time for a better experience.
