We had booked this cruise hoping to see fall colors but much of the trees had not yet turned. We booked an overnight stay in Montreal with Princess before embarking on the cruise. Montreal accommodations were nice but the transfer process was lacking. The busses picked us up so late that we didn’t reach the ship until 4:00 pm which caused us to miss out on several hours in Quebec City. The ...
Overall the cruise was very good. ship is dated and could use a facelift…our balcony cabin was fine but with some glitches..had to call guest services right away to fix air conditioning which wasn’t working well. The safe had issues with keypad sticking.. had to call twice for assistance. Balcony was not great and furniture was old one chair even had a big paint splotch on it.
First two nights ...
Chose this cruise because we wanted to see Fall Colors in Canada/New England and had had favorable experiences on Princess in the past.
However, this is an OLD ship (2004 refurbished 2019) and shows its age as well as lack of modern amenities. Although we didn't pay the most for our oceanview cabin we did not expect it to have bunk beds which protruded from the wall on either side of the queen ...
We just returned from a cruise on the Caribbean Princes.
We departed Quebec City and ended in NY.
Overall, the cruise was very disappointing.
Pre-covid we had traveled on two cruises with Princes.
These were much better and based on these experiences we booked the cruise in late Sept. of this year.
The difference is noticeable.
The cruise lines took on huge new debt during the ...
This cruise was VERY hard to rate. The layout of the ship, the food, the service and the comedy and magic entertainment were all very good. The itinerary was good in Newport, Boston, St. John and Quebec -- otherwise there wasn't a lot more to see. Unfortunately there were numerous sour notes.
The ship was old but mostly well maintained. In our cabin, however, the mattress was nearly worn ...
I will start out with we are not hard to please. Fifteen cruises in, all different lines and our age probably has something to do with that.
Our cabin on Caribe deck and balcony were fine. Once the toilet didn't work and someone was there immediately to fix it.
Our cabin stew and all the crew were so very pleasant and helpful and they were all so very personable.
Our ports and time in ...
We choose this cruise because it travelled to places in Canada we have never been..... and still haven't been to. We did encounter the pre bits of Hurricane Lee and the Captain made the decision to skip Charlestown, PEI, Halifax, NS and Bar Harbor, MN and shelter for 3 days in Boston. So we missed over 60% of our cruise and spent 3 calm days in Boston for a Hurricane that never came... beyond ...
Wanted to replace an Alaska Cruise tour we had to cancel and thought this would be a good one. Overall, it was a good cruise; good ports, good crew, food was overall very good, bars were great, entertainment was so-so. We missed one port due to weather, but all the others were surprisingly good. I'm finding that the excursion descriptions are not doing a good job reflecting how nice some of them ...
Fabulous food, amazing service, friendly staff, and good price.
Daily announcements to update what‘a happening through live DJs with important and fun news. The impressive entertainment with a great variety of performances from solo musicians, singers to team performances can meet the needs of passengers whom mostly were older seniors.
The daily itinerary was well-planned. Unfortunately ...
I wanted to go to Greenland and am an Elite with Princess. It started by Princess refusing to tell anyone where the ship was docking. It only said Manhattan or Brooklyn. You had to guess which one. On thenpast they sent emails to tell which one. It was not in the app either. The they have anytime dining which to me means get in line and get seated in order of arrival. No they give reservations and ...
