Review summary
Ideal cruises for those who want something scenic and interesting. And want to avoid any flying. We live in NYC and find the Amtrak connection between NYC and Boston very easy.Embarkation
30 minutes from taxi arrival at pier to our cabin.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
All breakfasts in Lido Market. Six dinners each cruise in Dining Room. One Pinnacle Grill.
Onboard Activities
We mostly sat on our balcony or walked promenade deck a lot!!
Entertainment
1. We are early risers and so early to bed. What was offered did not appeal anyway. We miss the classical music.
Children's Programs
No children.
Service and Staff
Could not have been more attentive!!
Ship Quality
We prefer the smaller ships. Had done this cruise before on Zaandam in 2019. Ship was good then but clearly it was renovated since them. Everything worked perfectly.
Cabin / Stateroom
Perfectly maintained by stewards. Newly renovated. Perfect size choice for us having the Vista suite
Ship tip
We love the smaller ships. Everything is always close by.

Disembarkation
We did self disembarkation. And were amazed at how early it was called - and amazed that we had elevator to ourselves and encountered very few others as we made our way to gangway.
