The combination of stunning scenery and the magic of Disney is pricey, but well worth it. I highly recommend the Alaska cruise. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous; each stop offers a different view, especially the glacier day – it was breathtakingly beautiful. Eight days and seven nights is simply not enough; there wasn't enough time. The cruise service is impeccable, and the food is excellent. The shore excursions at each port of call are incredibly fun: don't forget Donald Duck's gold rush, the White Lake train ride, bear watching, whale chasing, salmon runs, and Alaskan crab. Of course, port adventures aren't cheap. The cruise ship is generally not crowded, and the passengers are very courteous and considerate, making it very comfortable. There's no need to rush or push and shove. However, there are inevitably long queues for interactions with the characters. Although the Magic is an older ship, it's very well-maintained. If you're not too picky, there are no problems. The only issue is a constant creaking noise from the cabin when the ship is moving, making it feel like the room is about to fall apart, but it doesn't affect sleep. Overall, it was fantastic!

The room service staff were attentive, coming several times a day to clean the room and change towels. The ship offered Asian cuisine, Japanese sushi, and Indian food. The three-tiered circular walkway was perfect for seniors. Because we walked along the inner walkway, the scenery was beautiful, and with all the sunny days, we had a wonderful week.

The cruise ship wasn't large, and the food was quite good for a white-themed cruise. Entertainment facilities were comprehensive, and while there weren't many shops, they were quite lively. The hot tub was always crowded. One of the ping-pong tables was tilted, and both the paddle and the balls were broken; however, the balls were replaced the next day. The shore excursions were well-planned; if you didn't join a tour, you could explore on your own. The most memorable experience was watching the salmon run. Along the way, there were glaciers and bays. On a clear day, sitting at the stern with a hot coffee and breakfast was very pleasant. If your budget allows, the experience in a balcony cabin would be even better.

A fantastic itinerary, featuring snow-capped mountains, glaciers, lakes, and waterfalls. Check-in Guide: Upon arrival at the pier, go to the first floor and attach your pre-printed luggage tag to your suitcase for check-in. Then queue for facial recognition check-in and receive a yellow slip. Next, go to the basement level and queue for security. After security, non-Canadian and non-US tourists should queue on the right. Passengers will be asked nothing, but there's a chance they might take your fingerprints. For independent travelers, passports are not collected; keep them safe. Then you board the ship. If you arrive early, your room might still be being cleaned, so you can go to the 9th floor for dinner. After 12 PM, your room and luggage should be ready. Go to your room and get your room key. Go to the corresponding location on the 2nd floor according to the MUSTER STATION on your keycard to check in before departure, demonstrating that you know the emergency assembly point. Also, use the Holland America Line app to book your dinner time. Go to Home, dining & drinks, select Dining Room (this is free), and then choose a time. It's recommended to book for the following days in advance. After completing all this, you are free to explore the entire ship. The ship is fully equipped with bars, dance halls, libraries, entertainment venues, gyms, and card rooms. You can also get free sparkling wine and small pendants by checking in at the shops regularly, ensuring you won't be able to stop.

Although the cruise ship was relatively small, the onboard activities were plentiful and of high quality. The food was decent, but there wasn't much Chinese food. After 14 days, I often felt unsure what to eat. The various attractions in New Zealand were all excellent. My main complaint was the disorganized management of the buffet restaurant. Meals were distributed by staff, but there were no instructions on how to queue, leading to frequent queue-jumping, which was very annoying! Additionally, the air conditioning controls in the bedrooms were outdated and couldn't be precisely adjusted, so I always felt like the air was blowing directly on my head while sleeping. The air conditioning was also quite noisy.
