Boston Senior Cruises Reviews

I have been on 15 previous cruises, but this is my first time on an RCL ship. I chose it mostly because the port is nearby (Boston). I enjoy cruises these days because it's a real vacation; I don't have to figure out WHAT I'm going to make for lunch and what for dinner. I'm so sick of that! Also, to be entertained by music or karaoke or whatever is such a pleasure. Real people, not the usual ...

Not having traveled since 2019, we decided to move up to the Retreat class. A few weeks before the cruise, we were notified by the shoreside concierge to look for a specific location to drop our luggage and that we would be escorted to the ship from there. Well, when we got to the ship and asked for this drop off area, no one knew what we were talking about so we dropped our bags with one of the ...

This was our second Celebrity Cruise -- we had taken a wonderful Baltic cruise with Celebrity before Covid. This cruise, to the Canadian Maritimes, was quite different. The food was meh, the shipboard entertainment was Carnival Cruise level, and it was clear the ship was severely understaffed. Our room steward was terrific. And the captain did an amazing job of communications and keeping us safe ...

This was our first & last cruise with Celebrity. We chose Celebrity due to cruise credits about to expire from a previous cancellation. We have previously cruised with Princess, Disney and Viking and would book with them again . Unfortunately our itinerary changed greatly due to Hurricane Fiona which we understood and has little bearing on this review. We also contracted covid halfway through ...

Many of the musical events were way too load. Mainly Zumba and the house band in the main foyer. There were many expensive stores but no place to buy necessities like ibuprofen, toothpaste, sunscreen etc. The free WIFI was pathetic and apparently the only way to make it usable was to upgrade for $200! The outside movie theater was not watchable. The ship was not fully booked, but the dining room ...

We bought a Celebrity package holiday to Canada and flew to Boston. We should have been met by a Celebrity rep at the airport to direct us to our hotel transfer. There was no one there and the tel number provided didn’t work. Although it was an airport hotel not that far away, we ended up walking with all of our luggage. When we contacted Celebrity they denied all knowledge of us having a ...

Voyager Review September 18-25, 2022 - NewEngland/Canada PRE-CRUISE This would be our first New England/Canada cruise. We booked about 2 months out with a great price on an inside cabin 8441. Although we cruise frequently with various cruiselines, this was only our 2nd Royal Caribbean cruise, the last being 20 years ago. This was prior to recent changes, so we were still required to have ...

This was our first cruise in almost three years as the pandemic had put our cruising on hiatus. Since it was mid September we opted for a cruise to the Maritime Provinces of Canada to hopefully catch some of the color as the leaves turned. Maybe it is global warming but the leaves were very much green and intact as September wound down. Despite the age of the Summit the ship looks very clean ...

My wife came to America in 1952 on a HAL ship, so we kept using them for vacations. Mostly we really enjoyed the ships we were on, but the last ship (Zaandam) was not as enjoyable as the others. They all had excellent food and steward service. For us, we had the following problems: 1. Our shower kept changing water temp while using-not extreem, but annoying. 2. Our TV kept freezing or ...

This cruise from Boston to Montreal was to see some new sights in Canada. The ports of Bar Harbor, Charlestown, Quebec were interesting. Sydney and Montreal not so much. The common areas of the ship appear to have been refurbished in the last few months, but the cabins are showing a lot of age with only one electric outlet per cabin and an in room TV that is essentially useless and too ...
