This was our first cruise. I wanted something where I could sit back and let someone else handle everything. This was perfect. I had a blast and am totally looking forward to going again.

Ports of call

Montreal, Quebec

5 out of 5
Stayed in the Latin Quarter. I always love Montreal. Seeing it from the ship was interesting, you get a real sense of Mont Royal.

Quebec City, Quebec

5 out of 5
Can't wait to go back. Very hilly town, we checked out the waterfalls but really want to go back and spend some more time.

Cruise Gulf Of St. Lawrence

We took the Bay of Fundy tide change tour. The guide, Bryan was awesome. Never really saw much of Halifax but the tour was worth it.

Bar Harbor, Maine

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Disembarkation was super easy and organized. Oddly though, there was absolutely nothing in the cruise terminal. It's like the city made absolutely no effort to welcome folks.

Holland America is definitely for an older crowd which we are so we loved it. Beautiful ships, very friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, and great ports. Didn’t really care about the shows but that’s not why we cruise.
