Review summary

There were only 4 ports for this cruise, so when we didn't make it into Halifax it was very disappointing, especially since 4 other ships made it into that port ahead of us. We immediately set sail for our next port and spent the entire day at sea, yet we only arrived 2 hours early at the last port? The weather there was far worse, but we made it in without any problems. We were also 2 hours late for our first port in Boston. That meant we were in rush hour traffic, which meant the drive was twice as long. The only reason we got to see the museum was due to the museum remaining open late to accommodate our 2 buses. We then got to see the historic district in the dark.

Ship tip

This is the second time I have been on the Splendor, but the food quality was not the same. With everything that happened, or didn't happen, on this cruise, it will be my last. If I ever cruise again it will not be with Carnival.
