From the beginning planning stages to the flight home after disembarkation from the HAL Eurodam, this trip went so smoothly, and was one of the best trips of our lives! Alaska is unique, and seeing the glaciers and the coastal mountains and quaint towns from a cruise ship is the absolute best! Our Avoya agent, Erik was fantastic to work with. He was so knowledgeable and patient with us as we took our time deciding on a cruise line, and ship. Once booked, all went well, and Erik answered any questions we had, giving us great advice. Holland America was awesome and is my new favorite cruise line. I highly recommend Avoya, and Holland America if you are planning an Alaska cruise, and I definitely recommend Alaska as a wonderful and unique cruise destination. It's absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! Be sure you eat salmon and king crab legs while you are there. You won't get it any fresher than in Alaska! From the food to the scenery to the fantastic service from the cruise line staff, and of course the planning phase with Avoya, it couldn't have been better!
