  1. How many nights are you in NYC for? If more than one, I'm not sure why you are concentrating on staying so far south in Manhattan. There are also Brooklyn options if your visit *is* just one night
  2. Good question for the TripAdvisor Akureyri forum. I've been thru there a couple times and don't recall much "night life" but there are experts at TA who might know some secret options
  3. That was one of the options I was thinking of, Dobby
  4. Quebec City? Or the whole Province?
  5. There are places to leave your luggage while you tour the city on your own, if you prefer
  6. I would look carefully at the reviews of Renny to see if they are folks with significant review histories or if they are just 1 or 2 review folks. Read what they are saying to see if the reviews make sense for the service being provided. Dial 7 and Carmel have been recommended here and on TA for well over a decade. With thousands of customers a month for each of them you will get complaints, and most folks are much quicker to post a complaint than a compliment about a car service
  7. Iceland is REALLY easy to self drive. Especially with kids, you can set your own pace and see what you want to see without worrying about wind conditions or something else interfering with docking
  8. Really depends on your interests. In General, Halifax for city type things, Sydney for nature. But there are nature excursions in Halifax, too. Might depend on how limited those funds are. Are we talking $49? $149? More?
  9. Taxis definitely drop off and pick up at the Terminal. There are marked lanes for them and they generally get the closest curb at Logan to pickup at. Easiest option for folks with lots of luggage or not fans of app rides
  10. Totally agree. Even with my extra toe on my right foot I just can't do that math
  11. Silver line goes thru the same tunnel that car/truck traffic go through, so if there is a traffic disaster (and one of the tunnels is closed now so it's been pretty bad) the Silver Line is also affected
  12. $2.75 to $2.90 seems like a short term bandaid, $3 would make more sense and might buy an extra year before the next increase.
  13. I've seen NYC construction plans for decades. The issue of overcrowding happens rarely recently. Once it becomes a bigger problem perhaps a pier will be converted. But that is YEARS away, when larger ships start calling MCT their home. Can the MCT even berth a 5000 person ship? Raising prices makes much more sense than a wholesale acquisition, conversion and construction project. Please feel free to have the last word if you wish, I have said all I will about this subject
  14. The demand isn't there to convert other piers for overflow parking that happens only rarely. Of course they *COULD* do it, but there isn't a need
  15. This is correct, you are much more likely to be scammed than you are to find a safe, legal and convenient private rental in Manhattan
  16. Lots of existing threads. Do skim them and you will clear your worries away
  17. Right out the front door. You should Google it so you know a bit about it, how near it is, and how much history is involved
  18. The gate is open when the cruiseport is active. It is locked when there are no departures or arrivals as it leads to the parking lot and other secure areas
  19. I lived in Boston until last summer and I always saw plenty of cabs and ubers at the pier when we'd pass by on the way to Castle Island
  20. This could be good advice, depending on price. I've yet to see a cruise transfer to the airport that wasn't crazy priced for a couple. And worse for a larger party.
  21. Boston Light, the oldest manned Lighthouse in the US, is visible entering Boston Harbor. Probably 45-60 minutes prior to docking
