  1. First time on a cruise to the area. Have no idea what to do. We love chilling on the beach and having drinks with possible snorkeling. Like to do a little local shopping. Any suggestions at all? There are so many things that I am overwhelmed. Do not want to do a tour. Rather just enjoy the scenery. Possibly not far from the cruise port. Definitely not a crowded place. It will be during Spring break so I am sure there will be tons at the popular spots. TIA

  4. Leaving in 12 days on a cruise. I have all ports planned except Halifax. Any ideas on what to do ? We will be there from 1-8 pm. Just my husband and I will be there. Not a huge history fan but like shopping in unique places and eating of course. 
    All suggestions appreciated. 

  5. Our cruise ports in Portland from 7-5 and having trouble deciding.. would love to go to Kennebunkport but cruise ship reviews are not good as most say you only get to stay in town for 1 hour.  Should we just spend the day in Portland or is it worth the trip out to Kennebunkport. Cruise ship tour says 1-5 so not sure why you would only get one hour in town. We could get up early and spend 7 am until 1 in Portland then do the tour to Kennebunkport.  Never been to either places. Thanks for any advice. 

    any suggestions much appreciated. 

  6. Have booked Hyatt Times Square for our September cruise. Anyone stayed there? We have a full day before our cruise. Looking at possibly the 911 museum. How close it to the hotel or is there a quick way to get to the museum? My husbands first time in NY city. Any suggestions for dinner close by? 

    TIA

  7. We will be porting at Halifax, St. John New Brunswick, and Portland. If you wanted to do an excursion at one of them which would it be? Which excursion? We are ok just walking around town (shopping and eating) but thinking about an excursion at one of them. We mostly just want to see the fall foliage and scenery. TIA

  8. Just booked a fall cruise from NY on the Venezia. Can someone that has cruised on this ship give me some details? Have sailed mostly out of Mobile, Port Canaveral and Jacksonville. How is the port? Is it a mid-size ship? Did I read it was refurbished? Any tips would be appreciated. Just my husband and I going. 

    TIA

  9. thank you so much. We are sailing on the Carnival Venezia. It says it will leave from Manhattan Cruise Terminal. We are going to be going at the end of September. After looking on American Airlines, we have booked to come in to LGA around 1 in the afternoon the day before our cruise. My husband has never been to NY but I have been twice. I am looking at the Holiday Inn Express in Woodside since we have IHG points available, but not sure if this is close to anything. It is a new hotel with breakfast and an airport shuttle. We would need to find transportation to the port and back to the airport after the cruise. The subway would make him very nervous so probably would need a shuttle service, uber, etc. 

    Any suggestions on that would be appreciated as well as any ideas about things to do the day before the cruise. 

  10. So many questions... Sorry in Advance. Doing our first New England cruise from NY in September. I know there are 3 airports but which one is best and where should we stay if flying in the night before the cruise? Any suggestions, pros/cons very much appreciated!!! Two retired teachers so not looking to spend a fortune but need clean, safe area preferably with shuttle. 

  11. I love to cruise. Started on Carnival then switched to RC after my last two Carnival cruises were a nightmare. Like RC but found a good deal on a Celebrity Cruise for my time frame. Anyone tell me the comparisons? Is Celebrity in comparison to a Carnival cruise or a RC cruise? Just like to relax, not a picky person but my last two Carnival the crowds were awful ( bad language, no respect, terrible music, just a free for all party). I guess I am just getting too old for that atmosphere. TIA

  12. am helping my son plan a cruise for his honeymoon. He has agreed on a cruise, but is an avid fisherman. One port is Cozumel. Does anyone know of an excursion where you could fish or a place he could go to fish?  TIA
