Which side - Canada/New England?

[phabric]

I am thinking on taking the Canada/New England cruise -

New York to Quebec

 

Can you see land while you cruise?

 

Which side of the ship is better?

Except in the St. Lawrence, not really. The entrance/exit from Saguenay is narrow with views on both sides. The ship travels at a slow speed during the Saguenay transit. Plenty of time to move around for views.

Which side of the ship is better?

Either is fine.

It really makes no difference. The cruise is good on any side. We have done it four times. We are targeting this cruise when we decide to resume.

You might also consider the sailing from Ft. Lauderdale to Quebec. This usually sails in October when the fall colors are in.

This cruise in October actually starts in Quebec and ends in Ft. Lauderdale.  It sails almost at the end of October and by then the fall colors are pretty much gone.

The Princess site was down this AM and couldn't verify intinerary or dates. (Nothing new there.) Apologies to the OP. Now that the Princess site is up, the cruise I was referring to is in July 24th, not October, but shows as, "Currently Not Available." Hope it works out so you can go!

It was posted on a thread that 2022 Canada New England comes out Nov 17 for Elite and Nov 18 for others.

We did this cruise on November 22nd or so and we hit peak in several ports including Boston on Halloween. North was past peak.

Any cruise that was scheduled to be more than 7 days is showing up as not available at the moment due to the CDC directives.

While this is a nice cruise the 2019 schedule was early August. No color then. The return trip was at the end of the season. Peak color season is late September to mid October and varies each year.
