Quebec City to Canada & New England Cruise Reviews

We chose the cruise starting in Quebec City and ending in New York City, stopping in ports along the St Lawrence Seaway. We were eager to see what Silver Sea had to offer, since they bill themselves as an all-suites luxury line. Among the better aspects of the cruise were the ports and excursions. We also enjoyed meeting some very congenial people. Now for the truly disappointing aspects. ...

First room smelled like sewage so we did not even unpack. Was moved to room the air didn’t work. Then they moved us to the Covid-19’s and isolation section. Did not say a word about being isolated section we just kept seeing more and more doors blocked red stickers on doors. Why would you place at risk seniors in the middle of an isolation section. Is this not elder abuse. I ask if the CDC ...

This was our first experience with HAL. We selected it because of the good itinerary and competitive cost. PROS: this is a big, safe and high tech ship. Nice atmosphere at the Casino. There was always good and consistent temperature in all public areas and cabins...very compfortable. Good support from the Front Desk staff. CONS: Cheap shows, cheap muscicians, cheap artists and poor ...

We’ve sailed on Holland America numbers of times over the last several years and expected the newest ship of the fleet in service for three years to be an improvement in design, services and accommodations. We chose this “low impact” itinerary to enjoy the vessel and not require early departing excursions and for the most part the itinerary met this goal. However, the new ship missed the mark in a ...

We picked this cruise to catch the Fall colors along the St. Lawrence and for first time visits to Canadian maritime provinces. Embarkation was fairly smooth as folks seemed to come to the terminal at their appointed times. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing lovely Quebec and the other Canadian ports of call. The ship's crew was outstanding, very hard-working and they aimed to please. The meals in the ...

I am not a fan of online reviews. I don't like Yelp or Trip Advisor for this reason I hate the idea of hurting people's jobs. In this case I have to let everyone know how unhappy and awful Norwegian was to us. My wife and I took our mothers on a cruise because we thought it would be easy and a special way to be with the both of them. My mother in law is in early stages of dementia and ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to visit places where the leaves were changing, and for the most part, we were able to see the beautiful colors (several of the Canadian stops had been hit hard by a hurricane 2 weeks prior). We chose Norwegian because we had a previous wonderful cruise on the Breakaway. We were very disappointed by the Pearl. Frankly, our group of six found the ship ...

This cruise has long been delayed and postponed due to COVID. Began in Quebec where embarkation was very impressive. Very smart to have check in times. Cabins have much less storage space. The safety video is smart but very annoying to get MULTIPLE emails indicating the need to watch it. Someone should fix this. The 24 hour Sheehans is nice to have as a backup for meals. The restaurant ...

We are normally Regent travelers, but because of family circumstances we asked our travel concierge to get us on a 10-12 day Fall Foliage cruise on a premium cruise line in a specific date window. We had a choice of Seabourn or Silversea. We selected Silver Sea because of dates, smaller ship size, and their prior reputation. What a mistake. We'll NEVER sail on Silver Sea again. We so wanted a ...

We just finished 22 Days on Silver Whisper doing a B2B Fall Foliage/Canada cruise. There were some very good things, but there were instances that didn’t reflect well on Silversea. Unfortunately, the expression "You Get What You Pay For" did not apply here. As background, we’ve cruised dozens of times, mainly on Crystal, as well as Regent, Oceania, Celebrity, HAL, Lindblad, and most ...
