hilltopper98 Posted July 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Just off the Celebrity Eclipse sitting in the airport and thought I’d start to share our review-part 1… We were a family of 5 traveling with extended family that made us a total of 12. We were told the ship was not at max capacity, the ship had 2400 passengers and seemed appropriately staffed. All staff we encountered were friendly and willing to go out of their way to accommodate requests. We had purchased the premium wifi package and it was disappointing- very little dependable service on the ship. Much better when in port. Sitka, docked at Sitka Sound Cruise Terminal, 6 miles from downtown Sitka. Took the motor coach into town. Beautiful day, very little rain. The Motor coach wait line from the center of town to return to the ship was about an hour long. Luckily we made it back just in time for our excursion, that I recommend. The Alaskan bear and Homestead excursion. It took us to Fortress of the Bear and then a scenic boat ride aboard the Yukon Queen across Silver Bay(boat ride was amazing- saw more Eagles than we could count) to a renovated old homestead. Once at the homestead you could roast s’mores, skip rocks in the bay, walk along the shoreline,listen to a local share his stories, enjoy hot chocolate or sit next on the deck around a fire pit sampling smoked salmon on crackers 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
