Gilded Pier – Newport, Portland & Halifax

About this cruise

You board in New York on September 18, 2027 for 7 nights visiting Newport, Boston, Portland, Saint John and Halifax, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Manhattan skyline to maritime Canada. City energy at one end, quiet fishing towns at the other. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Boston, Freedom Trail, clam chowder, and cobblestones. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Regal Princess has 12 dining spots on board, most of them included. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
