I just had the time of my life on a Majestic Princess Cruise Tour to Alaska. I admit my cruising experience is limited, having taken one deplorable Bahamian Carnival cruise in the early 1990's, but I think thought Majestic Princess was elegant, our balcony stateroom was plenty roomy for our needs and the staff, even this late in the season, were friendly and accommodating, and some were downright ...
We chose this cruise because of the dates. Everything and everyone was wonderful. The only fault we found was the condition of our cabin. The bathroom needed more attention to clean stains in the shower and toilet. There were stains on the bed cover so we just threw it off. We knew this was an older ship that had been refurbished. There was not enough late night entertainment. We are night people. ...
We were on as 17 day Connosseur Cruise Tour. 10 days land , 7 days sea on the Majestic. The land portion was great. We took this cruise because of land not the cruise. Two nights in 5 different lodges. I have review this on the Alaska forum. The lodges were fine, and the food was also great. The Majestic was OK. We had a standard balcony. It was fine, clean, no complaints. The food was very good. ...
We booked an Alaska cruisetour with Princess after lots of research. Have done nearly 30 cruises with various lines including several with Princess.
Spent 7 days on a land tour first, which was excellent and ran very smoothly despite the changes of location along the way.
We chose the Grand as we wanted a smaller ship and love the wrap around promenade deck on this older class. The smaller ...
This was a 'cruisetour' to Alaska, starting from Anchorage and ending in Vancouver. The land portion consisted of a first night in Anchorage (stay was at Princess' Captain Cook), second night at McKinley Princess Lodge and third and fourth nights at Denali Princess Lodge. Honestly the stay in Anchorage and McKinley was 'irrelevant' - meaning these were not worthy stops as far as interesting ...
We picked this cruise for the land portion of the trip Off the Beaten Path.
one thing I would like to say pack light and wash your clothes. only a few dress for dinner and no one cares be comfortable.
Make sure you bring Mucinex, cough syrup and cough drops you have no ideal the people looking for that stuff and couldn't get it.
The lodges were very nice. Fairbanks had the Riverboat/ ...
I have wanted to go to Alaska for many years. This trip did not disappoint. We first took a 6 day land tour. The princess lodges were all beautiful, and the excursions so much fun. Our only issue was how expensive the food was in the lodge restaurants. $22 for what was the same kind you would have a nice hotel offer free seemed a little high.
We had only cruised Carnival before, so we weren't ...
We sailed Majestic in June 2023 on the Alaska southbound cruise. We chose this ship for its itinerary, wanting to see Glacier Bay (GB did not disappoint!!). Overall, it was an amazing vacation (as our naturalist Mark said, This is Alaska, This is Why You Came). First, the positives of the ship…excellent staff, great food (Catch by Rudi was by far the highlight meal of the week), the ship never ...
First time cruiser. We did a pile of research and determined that Mrs. Cruiser and I wanted to be on Princess on the southbound sailing from Whittier through the Alaska Glaciers (Hubbard Glacier, Glacier Bay). We also stopped at Sitka (Skagway was closed), Juneau, and Ketchikan.
All in all, everything was done very well by Princess. Embarkation was very smooth, but in Whittier, there was no ...
We had taken the Inner Passage cruise in Alaska many years ago and always regretted not having gone to the interior, so this time we took the 7 day land tour before getting aboard the Grand Princess for the 7 day cruise back to Vancouver.
The Land Tour:
We started out in Fairbanks, where we enjoyed a train excursion to a gold dredge, where we panned for gold and I got enough gold to put ...
