Review summary

Loved the Portland / Kennebunkport Tour but need more time for looking around or grabbing a bite to eat.

St John (Bay of Fundy) tour was wonderful. They took us back to see it calm and also rushing in. That was great!! Also needed more time to grab a bite to eat.

Halifax Tour was great also!!

Worse part was the disorganization of the Transportation from the port to the airports. Once we got on the bus it was a breeze!! No markings on the buses as to where they were going and hardly anyone around to let you know anything.

Very nice cabin, really liked it.

Ship tip

Serenity Deck is a wonderful place to relax. Peaceful and quiet, great for reading or taking a nap even. Comfortable chairs, hammocks, clamshell chairs if it is breezy. Wonderful!!

I agree we needed more time to discover Kennebunkport. We did not get a chance to eat lunch and in Portland, we were rushed and only had time to check out one shop. Beautiful area though!

We did the same excursions on our sept 10 cruise. They were great. Know what you mean about getting on the buses. What helped us is we had a porter that helped us with our luggage and he found the la guardia bus for us. I gave him a good tip!

If you ever get back to Kennebunkport eat at Mabel's. It's wonderful, just a little expensive.
