Review summary

This was a great cruise. Everyone was friendly with tons to do while at sea. The behind the ship tour was not the best. All the stops were enjoyable with lots to see and do.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy, with very helpful staff.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room was as expected. The food was good and hot when arriving at the table. Wonderland was a great experience. We also ate at Chops and the food was great! We also ate at Jamie's and enjoyed that meal as well.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There were so many activities. Our favorite was the Sky View that took us 300 feet above the sea level. It was great to get such a good view.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Every show we saw was great. We did not attend any of the adult only shows so I can not review them.

Children's Programs

No Kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Every one was helpful and friendly. Our cabin steward was great. She always had a smile and kept our room clean.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was spotless, my only complaint was with the elevators. They were slow and there was not enough for the size of the ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Large enough for 2. We really enjoyed the balcony.

Ship tip

Be ready for an adventure.

Ports of call

Boston, Massachusetts

5 out of 5
This is a great city with many things to do. There is something for everyone.

Portland, Maine

5 out of 5
Great place for strolling and sightseeing.

Bar Harbor, Maine

5 out of 5
Plan to do a tour of Acadia later in the day. That was you are likely to not have fog.

Saint John, New Brunswick

4 out of 5
This was not my favorite stop.

Halifax, Nova Scotia

5 out of 5
There is so much to do here that a day is not enough. Plan on one main activity, do not try to do or see everything.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Disembarkation was delayed. We waited for a very long time to get off the ship and another long time to get thru customs.
