Third year in a row we've been trying to take this cruise, but couldn't due to scheduling conflicts. Absolutely great cruise. The Regal Princess is still in great shape, and looked it. Constant upkeep throughout the whole cruise. Crews were doing exterior hull painting before we even disembarked in Halifax.
Halifax: Easy disembarkation. In port with the Caribbean Princess. Easy access to our private tour right out front of Terminal 22. If you want a good local beer, due yourself a favor and skip Garrison Brewing and walk down Water Street to Alexander Keith's.
Saint John:
Great "sideways" interior located almost exactly mid ship. Easy access to center stairs, and, as many people know, actually more interior space than a standard balcony. Stateroom was in great shape, with new bed and larger, upgraded TV. No regrets not having a balcony. Used the money saved for Lobster Rolls!
Outstanding tour with Go North Tours. Highly recommended.
