Great ports!

I had a great time in most of the ports, but if you are looking for a completely satisfying experience---- fly to a large city, rent a car and drive it. This is especially true if you want to see outlying areas such as Acadia National Park or the Cabot Trail or Peggy's Lighthouse etc. The tours offered through the ship or by taxis or vans at the port are set at an exceedingly high fixed price and certainly not worth it. I wasted $150 for 3 hours in Sydney to see nothing, after the guides say how fantastic everything is. I should have taken tge Regal Princess which was a far better ship and had a slightly better itinerary.

Cruise tips

Halifax, Nova Scotia

All the tours at the port were way overpriced, compared to when I was there 5 years ago. I didn't have nearly as good of a time.

Sydney, Nova Scotia

Nothing to do there unless you want to see a lot of trees and water for $200 for 4 wasted hours.

Bar Harbor, Maine

A great place for hiking or sailing. Again, at $50 to $80 an hour, all the tours were a ripoff. The people who took those tours were sorry they threw away their money on trees and mountains and a too long boring drive. I' m glad I just walked around a lot, went shopping and had a lobster dinner.

Fly in, go by automobile and see a lot more, eat better food, stay in better hotels fir less money than a cruise.
