Review summary

Regal princess was a great ship food faultless and spotless. Some staff I found to be less friendly which I found sad as there was no reason for the behaviour. The cabin steward and other staff made up for it and this was my one and only complaint.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Ports of call

New York, New York

5 out of 5
Picked ship up in Brooklyn dock so a tad out the way from Manhattan. Did the night hop on bus and Central Park horse and cart. Bus you can barter and the horse and cart is set prices although they don’t advertise the shorter route $70 inc tip for 30mins

Newport, Rhode Island

5 out of 5
Did hop on ourselves which was right at port. Just loads of Mansions to see so happy to do the loop.

Boston, Massachusetts

5 out of 5
Hop on was disrupted due to marathon but managed the cheers bar although had to walk a bit. You get madam Tussaud’s and a museum included. Best way when short of time

Bar Harbor, Maine

5 out of 5
Took the princess tour the loop. Thunder mountain and national park was good to see. Seen Cadillac mountain but this tour did not go to the top. Noticed there is a trolly bus at port that done the same trip which was much cheaper

Saint John, New Brunswick

5 out of 5
2 hop on bus options were fully booked. Walked along towards the town to discover another hop on company. Recommend this and is cash only but the driver was excellent and covered all the highlights

Halifax, Nova Scotia Did not visit port

Storm didn’t allow us to dock

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Last off but had to wait in line for a while at passport control
