Since I love cruising in general, it’s hard to say anything without praising everything. We picked the perfect week for visiting New England and Nova Scotia as far as weather and fall foliage, making the trip very enjoyable.

Overall comfort was excellent. Size was fine. Bathroom size was awesome. It was always spotlessly clean, thanks to our excellent cabin steward.
Ship tip
It’s a small ship with all the advantages a small ship provides, but she’s showing her age.
The HAL excursion we wanted was sold out, so we booked an excursion through Tours by Locals to visit Baddeck and the A.G.Bell museum. We were very pleased with that tour.
Loved PEI. Couldn’t find a HAL excursion we liked, so we booked one through United Cruises - Island Drive and Anne of Green Gables. Our tour guide, Cliff, was outstanding!
