Review summary

Canada/New England is one of our favorite cruises.  It's been several years since we've been and we were delighted in the changes that Royal Caribbean has made.  No more midnight buffets, but improved food quality and flexible seating. More relaxed atmosphere and common sense changes. The best part of the cruise is dealing with Harry Kroll, "" extraordinary agent!

Great cabin for the size. Improvements in layout made it very comfortable. Only drawback - the windows had buildup on them, so it made it difficult to take quality pictures.

Ship tip

We did take independent tours to see these sights, rather than the tours offered by the ships. You can do this at a fraction of the cost. Just be mindful of the time, however, and make sure you give yourself plenty of time to get back to the ship.

Took the October 4th cruise. Loved it. Planning on doing it again next year. Hear the Anthem of the Seas is going to do that cruise. Can't wait. Already Booked the Harmony for November 2016.
