Disappointed in the Westmark Hotels in Anchorage and Fairbanks. They were run down. Loved the ship and train ride! Our room at Mt McKinley Chalet was adequate but the toilet was loose and the shower curtain wasn’t Long enough so it flooded the floor. These rooms also need updated. Overall, the trip was amazing but for the money, I thought our land accommodations were sub par.

The only suggestion would be to get materials to us sooner to give us more time to plan. By the time we received, many of the excursions were waitlisted. Also, being first time cruisers, more information/orientation to life on the ship would have been helpful. It took us to almost the end of the journey to learn some of the ropes.

I have and will continue to recommend this company. I also plan to use Vacations by Rail for some future travels.

The staff at Vacation by Rail were pleasant and exceptionally helpful. The only negative comment I have is regarding the buses used for the Tundra Wilderness tour. They did not have enough leg room for such a long tour. I realize they were provided by an independent contractor and probably out of control of VBR.
