Loved Nova Scotia
Reviewed By Suz&Tom - New Market MD | Traveled to Nova Scotia | Canada
The itinerary Holland America offered was very good. We took advantage of the Cabot Trail tour - enjoyed it! Lunch was soup, sandwiches, and a fruit crumble.
We waited too long to sign up for the tour of “PEI” but one in our group arranged to rent a car for us at the nearby hotel (in advance) and he designed a tour of highlights. This is doable! And worked out beautifully!
As first-timers, we missed out on clicking links early! Including baggage tags for the ship. But all worked out well on site. There were long lines so we were occupied while working through it. Don’t worry about what you forget! It gets done and ship life was great!

HollandAmerica cruise to Canada from Boston
Reviewed By Tom - New Market, MD | Traveled to Canada
The cruise itself was great. Christine kept us well informed as we prepared for it.
Christine, you should know that Holland America's boarding process is a nightmare. They had 1900 passengers, and no boarding schedule. So everyone was trying to board at once in Boston. This resulted in 2+ hours in line before we saw the inside of the ship. A sour beginning to an otherwise great trip. If you have other clients cruising with Holland America, I think it would be wise to warn them ahead of time about this issue.
Christine Holland responded
"Thank you so much for sharing this feedback. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed the cruise overall and that you felt well informed throughout the planning process.
I’m sorry to hear that the boarding process in Boston was such a frustrating experience. I’ll certainly keep this in mind and make sure to advise future clients sailing with Holland America to be prepared for the possibility of delays and crowds during embarkation.
Thank you for trusting me with your travel plans! God bless you
