Jon54 Posted January 20, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'm not really a first time cruiser but I feel like it. About 10 years ago, wife and I took a cruise to Alaska. Now, we are taking one on the right side, to New England/Canada. There has to be a resource to figure out the shore excursions. When we went to Alaska, we found dozens of books. So far, none.

Talisker92 Posted January 20, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2011 We are booked on the Crown Princess this fall from Toronto to NY on a cruise tour. If you go to the Princess website and click on "Shore Excursions" you can find a whole list. I have attached a trip story of a cruise I took with my late wife to give you some ideas. montreal-ny 2002.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted January 20, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'd search for excursions on the cruiseline's web site and ports of call here on this board. We've been to Halifax and St. John New Brunswick several times and there are various excursions, though we usually venture out on our own there. ENJOY!

dextaaah Posted January 20, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I might be a little biased since I'm from there but if you do a eastern cruise of Canada I would recommend one that stops in St.John's Newfoundland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon54 Posted January 20, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'm booked on the Carribean Princess ship in June. I know that Princess' website has a listing of the shore excursions but I was hoping to find a book that discussed the best ones. The sales speak on Princess' website doesn't help me as much as someone that has been there and one that. I am excited to take my second cruise. Funny, I married a travel agent and this is only my 2nd cruise after 36 years of bliss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted January 20, 2011 #6 Share Posted January 20, 2011 If you go to the Ports of Call section for Canada you will find much more information about all the ports. Do a search with the name of each port. And post questions. I monitor it and give advice for Halifax, Sydney and sometimes Charlottetown. Other local people do the same thing.
