Review summary

Mother Nature collaborated with American Cruise Line to bring us the perfect weather for our New England Islands Cruise. The American Liberty, the cruise line's 4 week old ship, is beautifully appointed and the staff work seamlessly, together, to provide the guest excellent service. When you see other guests to the island dragging their luggage through the streets off the ferries on the different islands it is a validation that it is BEST TO TOUR THE ISLANDS BY BOAT! If you never left the boat (which of course we did!) it would be thoroughly relaxing just to sit on the balcony or on the deck watching the myriad of watercraft go by. There is so much history and beauty on these islands so put it on your bucket list!
