Review summary

Loved this cruise, especially the Maine ports. Bar Harbor is fantastic! The Gem is updated and a very manageable sized ship. Typical NCL restaurants but I do think they have done a better job with the buffet. Love cruising out of NYC.

Taking the Gem in October 2018 for first time ð out of NYC to Canada. Last year took Princess to New England coast out of NYC. All ports are quite beautiful. Bar Harbor is known for its lighthouses and beautiful Acadia Park. They may have whale watching also available. The small town has lots of gift shops, cafes restaurants etc. You need tender to get to shore
