Review summary

Overall it was a nice cruise and we recommend it. The ship is pretty new, clean with comfortable cabins, and the crew was excellent. We did not see much of fall colors since it was still early in the season. Two ports of call had to be cancelled due to damage caused by hurricane Fiona.

Boston, Massachusetts

We stayed for two days, but the weather was cold and windy. Visited most of historical sites on foot on our own. The visit would have been more enjoyable if the weather was nicer.

Ship disemabarkation process was easy and well organized, but the wait for taxi for transport to our hotel was very long on a cold and windy day.
