Creator's Key Takeaways

We are going on the Majestic Princess. And so, it's a Princess ship. We've been on her before and we're headed up to Quebec, Canada.

If you're cruising or want to cruise, New England and Canada route, there's two places you'll be cruising out of New York or Boston.

Book your hotels early. If you're getting there two days early, you may want to rent a car. I wouldn't suggest it. Boston's easy to get around in.

In Portland, Maine, when the ship comes in, you come in at the Maine State Pier, you come off the ship and literally bang, you're in the Old Port area.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book hotels in Boston early as prices are high near the port.
Consider renting a car in Halifax to visit Peggy's Cove independently.
Take the Merrun Ferry in Portland, Maine for a mail run island tour.
