This port was a bit on the quieter side for us. After exploring some shops and an empty "shopping mall," we decided to find a playground near the port to let the kids expend some energy. The highlight of this stop was the "dollar" store in the mall, which was quite crowded, but we found all the Canadian souvenirs we desired, including maple leaf cookies and syrup, and stuffed animals. The park ...
We docked at the Long Wharf which was a little further away from the town than the other two docks, but definitely walkable. The town has several streets of shops and restaurants, including the city market. We went to Big Tide Brewing for drinks and apps. If you're looking for a good massage that's quality but cheaper than the cruise, I'd recommend Refresh Wellness Studio (just up the hill from ...
Some interesting history here, and I'd recommend setting aside a fair amount of time to do the Fundy Trail (or part of it, I guess...it's very long). The Sea Caves were lovely, but I think I'd pass in the future for more time at Fundy. And if you can, try to see the reversing river. It doesn't take long, and if you can see it coming and going, it's a unique experience ...
Very little to see here. MSC misscalculated the number of busses needed for their Hop On Hop Off excursion; further exacerbated by one of the expected 4 busses was out of action. As a result, we never got to hop off after hearing from earlier travelers that they had been waiting an hour to hop back on a bus! ...

The seafood chowder that was included was very good, the restaurant should have a LOT more bathrooms if they plan to serve multiple tour buses at one time. Two trips to the reversing rapids, a stop in a tiny village of St. Martins, and a stop at one of the markets in St. John. I won't get this 5 hours back and ...
We visited St. Martins, which was a quaint little town and the Bay of Fundy, which we weren't able to walk over to the caves due to the tides, and the Reversing Rapids, and the Old City Market. The guide was knowledgeable. ...
