MSC Meraviglia - October 4-15, 2023 (New England) - Brooklyn, Newport, Boston, Corner Brook, Charlottetown, Sydney and Portland.
We enjoyed this cruise immensely. A fair number of reviewers have posted comments about the ship and its amenities already.
Embarkation was seamless. We arrived at 11 am, and were on the ship within ten minutes. Pretty unbelievable. (I assume that as the day drags ...
After more than 30 years of cruising on all the major cruise lines, I now think that Norwegian Cruise Lines has become the best value in the industry, especially for those who prefer to cruise solo. While legacy cruise lines seem hostile to singles (usually charging solos 200%, but couples get a discount on the second passenger), NCL is the opposite and offers solo cruisers regular cabins with no ...
Oceania is our favorite cruise line, so when I was able to book a cruise on their newest ship, the Vista, I jumped on it. I also liked the fall color itinerary that started in Montreal, a city that I hadn’t visited in the past. I had taken a fall color cruise in 2013 after I retired and loved it, so I hoped that we would be able to see beautiful colors that we don’t see in south Florida.
The ...
Oceania Vista, Montreal to Miami October 2023. Disclaimers first. My wife and I prefer smaller ships of approximately 1200 passengers or less and Oceania Vista certainly fits that bill. Secondly, we usually pick the cruise because of the ports. Third, we do not like all-inclusive plans as we rarely use the ship’s excursions and are not big drinkers. So that does leave a limited number of ...
Wanted to experience the new Vista and was not disappointed. The new venues were great and looking forward to its new sister ship Allura.
Dining - The Grand Dining Room is truly grand. White columns and half walls break up the cavernous space and allow for a quieter more intimate experience no matter where you are seated. Menu selections were good but did notice rather dull options when it ...
This cruise was the most wonderful experience! I loved every minute of it. From the luxurious linen in our gorgeous suite to the five star meals we enjoyed, the world class entertainment and interesting lectures this was an experience to treasure. We also enjoyed the workout room, ballroom dancing, lovely library, golf lessons and our daily soak in the hot tub. The excursions were interesting as ...

Montreal to Ft Lauderdale. Had a great time. Quick and easy embarkation in Montreal staying at the Springhill Old Montreal which is perfectly located near all Old Montreal highlights. The service on board was wonderful. We liked the MDR and Lido buffet. Mixed reviews on the specialty dining by our group. Entertainment was great including the band, piano bar player, dancers, singing group, ...
Embarkation: arrived at the port at 11:45. Baggage handlers were ready at the curb. We were in the green lane and proceeded quickly thru security and onto the ship.
The ship was in great condition. We had an unexpected sea day at the start of our journey because tropical storm Ophelia caused us to leave New York Harbor a day late. The ship anchored for our first night near the Verrazano ...
We where apprehensive about sailing out of New York but wanted to try a new port and also new destinations. I must admit that the City is safer than the news tells you. We arrived a day early which is highly recommended. We took a cab to our Hotel and had dinner right across the street. It was a great meal and back in the room to get up early for the Ship the next morning. The weather was expected ...
After my less than stellar first Princess cruise on Island Princess in July, I was a little apprehensive about this one. However, it could not have been any different. Not only was the ship newer and in great condition but the whole experience was better, it was like sailing on different cruise line.
Nothing on Sky Princess was my favourite anything from the cruise lines I’ve sailed but ...
