Service that's all about making you feel special

With the MedallionClass® experience, we’ve made the service guests love even better. It goes beyond knowing your name. It’s surprising you on your birthday. Knowing you take cinnamon in your latte and bringing you that latte anywhere. It’s addressing any concerns right now, not later, maybe even before you ask. Anyone can say their crew is like family. So we don’t say it; our guests do.

Vacation at a value

A cruise with Princess isn’t just a chance to connect with your favorite people and the world. It’s one of the best vacation values around. Exploring multiple destinations yet only unpacking once. Multicourse meals to remember. Broadway-style shows, comedy acts and bands. A comfortable stateroom perfect for unwinding. And the best part? You get it all for a fraction of what you'd spend on a land-based vacation.

Vancouver, BC, Canada

Cruises from Vancouver depart from spring through fall. Located on the southwestern coast of British Columbia, Vancouver is Canada's third most populous city. The bustling metropolis is known for its cultural diversity, which is on display in areas like Chinatown, brimming with authentic eateries and apothecaries. Gastown, Vancouver's oldest neighborhood, exudes historic charm thanks to cobblestone streets and Victorian architecture harmoniously interspersed with trendy boutiques and galleries. Outdoor activities abound in the urban Stanley Park, home to gardens, beaches, trails, totem poles and the seawall amid a lush forested setting totaling about 1,000 acres. The city is a jumping-off point for whale-watching tours, which reward keen eyes with glimpses of orcas and humpback whales as well as pelicans, puffins and bald eagles. A short hop northward across the harbor into North Vancouver is Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, where seven bridges and a cliff walk delight thrill-seekers.

11 best cruises to Canada and New England

Canada and New England cruises are best known for taking mature travelers to experience vibrant autumnal foliage in multiple destinations.

However, the region's photogenic landscapes, charming ports and fresh local seafood make time ashore uniquely enjoyable for couples and families. Plus, late summer and early fall getaways can be convenient and affordable, especially if you already live on the East Coast.

New England and Canada cruises are mainly offered from late August through mid-October (although limited June and July dates are also available). They sail round-trip from New York or Boston, or one-way between either city and Montreal or Quebec City.

Itinerary lengths for Canada and New England cruises range from seven to 11 nights. Ships typically call on ports in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, as well as Portland or Bar Harbor, Maine, or even Newport, Rhode Island. High-end, smaller-ship cruise lines may offer more in-depth itineraries of 11 to 15 nights, with more inclusions and higher price tags.

For cruise news, reviews and tips, sign up for TPG's cruise newsletter .

It's important to book well in advance if you want to cruise during peak foliage weeks, generally late September to mid-October. Also, Newport, Bar Harbor and some less-visited ports on these itineraries do not have cruise piers. Transferring to shore via tender boat can be time-consuming, if not difficult or impossible, for passengers with mobility challenges.

Here are 11 of the best cruises to Canada and New England to consider.

Celebrity: 11-night Boston, Maine & Canada

Celebrity Cruises is offering its 11-night Boston, Maine & Canada itinerary on three September dates in 2025. The round-trip sailings from Boston — aboard 2,902-passenger Celebrity Silhouette — call on Portland, Maine; Halifax and Sydney, Nova Scotia; Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island; and Quebec City (where the ship overnights).

The overnight in Quebec City also offers an opportunity to enjoy one of Canada's most charming cities after dark. Don't miss the narrow cobblestone streets of historic Old Quebec, with its inviting cafes.

Who should go : This round-trip itinerary is a convenient option for couples or friends seeking to experience the highlights of New England and Canada during the autumn foliage season. Celebrity's ships are designed with adults in mind. They offer multiple onboard bars and lounges for socializing — and the indoor, adults-only Solarium pool is perfect for relaxation as fall temperatures dip.

Holland America: 10-night New England, New France & Newfoundland: Corner Brook

Not all Canada and New England cruises are timed for leaf peeping. Holland America's 10-night New England, New France & Newfoundland: Corner Brook itinerary in August 2025 on 1,438-passenger Volendam aims to make the most of the region's late-summer weather.

The cruise embarks in Boston and disembarks in Montreal. In between, Volendam visits seven additional ports (Portland, Maine; Saint John, New Brunswick; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Corner Brook, Newfoundland; Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island; and Saguenay and Quebec City, Quebec). It offers a comprehensive tour of Canada's Atlantic Provinces and Quebec.

Who should go : Holland America attracts retirees and other passengers in the 60-plus age range, though summer sailings see more multigenerational families. The compact Volendam offers a traditional onboard atmosphere, but foodies should know it offers a limited selection of dining venues and lounges. On the plus side, Volendam's pool features a retractable roof in case of cool or rainy weather.

This particular itinerary has no ports requiring tender transfers, making all destinations accessible to most passengers with disabilities.

Norwegian: 7-night Canada & New England

Norwegian Cruise Line has multiple ships cruising a dozen Canada and New England itineraries from Boston, New York and Quebec City in 2025. For value, convenience and a megaship experience, check out the seven-night Canada & New England: Bar Harbor & Halifax sailings aboard 3,963-passenger Norwegian Getaway. It calls on five ports: Newport, Rhode Island; Portland and Bar Harbor, Maine; Saint John, New Brunswick; and Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Who should go : Norwegian's Breakaway Class ships offer a resort-meets-theme-park experience with a lively onboard vibe appealing to couples, families and groups of friends. That said, the ships lack an indoor pool.

Cruises during the cooler fall months are best suited for those who enjoy the outdoors. Bar Harbor is the gateway to Acadia National Park, and Saint John offers access to the Bay of Fundy's legendary tides. They're also ideal for travelers who appreciate historic architecture. Newport is known for its Gilded Age mansions, and Halifax offers access to the picturesque village of Peggy's Cove.

Oceania: 11-night Canada and New England

Oceania Cruises offers seven New England and Canada sailings in September and October of 2025. The voyages are aboard 670-passenger Insignia, which offers a smaller-ship experience with an emphasis on fine dining.

Insignia sails between New York and Montreal and Boston and Montreal . The port-intensive itineraries include eight or nine ports along the Eastern Seaboard. Cruisers might visit Quebec City and Saguenay in Quebec; Sydney and Halifax, Nova Scotia; Corner Brook, Newfoundland; Saint John, New Brunswick; Portland, Maine; Boston; and Newport, Rhode Island.

Who should go : Oceania's premium cruise experience appeals to couples seeking an onboard ambience that combines culinary excellence with elegant decor and elevated service.

The ship might be small, but it still features two intimate specialty restaurants, a gorgeous grand dining room, a high-end buffet and pool grill and one of the most decadent afternoon tea services at sea. Standard cabins are on the smaller side, but their modern look and sumptuous beds are appealing. For a splurge, the larger suites will not disappoint discerning travelers.

Princess Cruises: 7-night Canada & New England

In 2025, Princess Cruises will offer multiple seven- to 14-night round-trip and one-way sailings to Canada and New England from New York, Quebec City and Boston.

However, our pick is the seven-night Canada & New England itinerary, which combines visits to four or five ports with a cruise aboard one of Princess' Royal Class ships, 3,360-passenger Enchanted Princess.

Passengers will sail round-trip from New York and visit Newport, Rhode Island; Boston; Bar Harbor and Portland, Maine; Saint John, New Brunswick; and Halifax, Nova Scotia. On certain weeks, some ports may be substituted with a different port. Weekly sailings take place from late August to mid-October.

Who should go : Princess ships, even the newer vessels, offer a more traditional take on cruising that's popular with couples and groups of friends who enjoy a quieter experience — although the after-dinner sing-a-longs in Crooners piano bar can get lively. Enchanted Princess does lack waterslides, thrill-oriented activities and an indoor pool if those amenities are important to you.

Travelers who enjoy dining at different venues each night will appreciate the ship's five extra-fee restaurants and more than a half-dozen complimentary dining venues . Don't miss the excellent Gigi's Pizzeria, a sit-down restaurant.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises: 11-night Autumnal Splendor

In 2025, Regent Seven Seas Cruises ' 750-passenger Seven Seas Splendor will sail a series of Canada and New England itineraries from New York, Boston and Montreal.

The 11-night Autumnal Splendor sailing departs Sept. 30, 2025. It's timed to allow passengers to enjoy regional foliage at its peak as the ship sails from Boston to Montreal. Grandeur calls on Bar Harbor, Maine; Saint John, New Brunswick; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Corner Brook, Newfoundland; and Sept-Iles, Saguenay and Quebec City in Quebec.

Who should go : Regent's all-inclusive luxury cruises — which include airfare, transfers, onboard beverages and dining, gratuities, Wi-Fi and unlimited shore excursions — have correspondingly luxurious prices. So, passengers are mostly affluent professionals and retirees who enjoy the seamless ease of an all-inclusive sailing offering top-notch service.

Connoisseurs of fine dining will be in their element with eight onboard restaurants, which include Chartreuse for fine French cuisine and Pacific Rim for flavorful pan-Asian menus. Plus, passengers can indulge their foodie passions with chef-led classes in the onboard Culinary Arts Kitchen.

Seven Seas Splendor does not offer an indoor pool for cool-weather swims.

Royal Caribbean: 9-night Canada & New England

Royal Caribbean offers Canada and New England cruises from three cities (Boston, Baltimore and Bayonne, New Jersey) in the fall of 2025. To truly experience the Eastern Seaboard, try the nine-night Canada & New England Cruise sailing round-trip from the Cape Liberty cruise port in Bayonne aboard 3,798-passenger Liberty of the Seas. The itinerary visits Boston; Portland, Maine; Sydney and Halifax, Nova Scotia; and Saint John, New Brunswick.

Who should go : Liberty of the Seas is designed to appeal to all ages. However, September and October sailings attract more couples and retirees.

Liberty of the Seas doesn't have all the bells and whistles of Royal Caribbean's newer, larger ships. However, it does feature 11 dining venues, 10 bars and lounges, Broadway-style entertainment and more. It also has an adults-only indoor Solarium pool and several outdoor pools and hot tubs.

Seabourn: 12-night Canada & New England Fall Foliage

Enjoying the region's colorful autumnal landscapes is the primary agenda on Seabourn's 12-night Canada & New England Fall Foliage cruises , scheduled in September and October 2025 aboard 458-passenger Seabourn Sojourn.

These sailings between New York and Montreal visit Newport, Rhode Island; Boston; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island; and Saguenay and Quebec City in Quebec.

Who should go : Seabourn 's all-inclusive, small-luxury cruise experience is reflected in its fares, so these itineraries require a generous travel budget. As a result, passengers are typically financially well-off couples, including international travelers, who appreciate the fleet's private club-style ambience and personalized service.

All cabins are spacious ocean-facing suites, and 90% of the ship's accommodations feature a veranda. Seabourn Sojourn might be small, but it still offers four onboard restaurants, including the line's new Mediterranean restaurant, Solis.

Silversea: 12-night New York to Quebec City

For upscale, door-to-door, all-inclusive cruising to New England and Canada, Silversea Cruises offers six fall itineraries in 2025, including an 11-night New York-to-Quebec City itinerary aboard 388-passenger Silver Shadow.

The itinerary includes calls on Newport, Rhode Island; Boston; Portland, Maine; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island; and Saguenay and Quebec City in Quebec.

Who should go : Silversea passengers are generally wealthy retired couples passionate about cruising on small luxury ships. They appreciate fine wines and elevated dining, such as the French cuisine offered in La Dame, one of four onboard restaurants. Nightlife on Silver Shadow is generally low-key, though there is a small casino.

Silversea's all-inclusive pricing includes airfare, transfers, gratuities (and butler service), complimentary beverages and at least one shore excursion per port.

Viking: 12-night Eastern Seaboard Explorer

Viking's 12-night Eastern Seaboard Explorer itinerary aboard its identical 930-passenger ocean ships, Viking Neptune and Viking Mars, is offered in May and September 2025 (four sailings) and August and September 2026 (three sailings).

Each one-way sailing travels from New York to Montreal (or vice versa, with overnights in each city), and the ships visit Quebec City, Saguenay and Gaspe in Quebec; Halifax, Nova Scotia; and Boston.

Who should go : Adults-only Viking appeals to cruisers who appreciate a subdued onboard experience centered around learning about a destination via guest lectures and shore excursions. The cruise line's passengers tend to be retirement age or older.

Viking's fans love the ships' serene Scandinavian-inspired decor, complimentary spa thermal area and pricing that includes wine and beer with lunch and dinner, gratuities and one free shore excursion per port. The ships do not have an onboard casino, but two pools (one with a retractable roof) offer relaxation during sea days.

Windstar: 11-night Southeast Canadian Explorations

The 11-night Southeast Canadian Explorations itinerary aboard Windstar Cruises ' 312-passenger Star Pride cruises between Montreal and Boston in September and October 2025. Sailings call on Quebec City, Gaspe and Cap-aux-Meules in Quebec; Louisbourg and Halifax in Nova Scotia; and Portland in Maine.

An overnight stay in Quebec City gives passengers more time to explore on land and enjoy regional cuisine in local restaurants for dinner.

Who should go : Star Pride is one of the smallest ships offering Canada and New England itineraries, so these sailings are ideal for travelers seeking an intimate cruise experience with more casual camaraderie than most other small-luxury-ship cruises. The ship features five onboard restaurants, and cabins are generously sized (the smallest is 277 square feet).

While cruise fares are not all-inclusive, passengers can pay a daily fee for a package that includes unlimited beer, wine and cocktails, as well as Wi-Fi and crew gratuities.

Canada/New England

Hey all. I’ve always wanted to do the Canada/New England cruise out of NY. For those that have done it, what are your thoughts? We have mostly done Caribbean cruises along with Hawaii and Panama Canal. NY is obviously cold in October which is when we would want to do it and we have two children 12 and 6. Would the pool be too cold to swim in?

Rick&Jeannie

We have done this itinerary twice now...once R/T NYC and the second one-way NYC to Quebec City.  In order to answer about the pool(s) we would need to know which ship.  We almost *never* use the pools...but someone else will likely chime in if you can share the ship. (Some ships have indoor pools...)

dreaminofcruisin

It also might depend on where you live now? If you live in a colder climate, kids are kids and our experience is they go swimming even if the adults think they are nuts.

Just recently back from Alaska and kids were in the pool even on the coldest, nastiest days....

We live in NY and I believe the ship would be the enchanted. 

NantahalaCruiser

The October Canada/New England cruises out of NY (Brooklyn) are all 7 night RT on the Enchanted Princess.  Unfortunately, the Enchanted Princess does not have a covered pool.

If you decide to take one of these cruises, look for one with only one sea day and a stop in St. John, NB, rather than the one with two sea days and no stop in NB

startedwithamouse

Maybe. Can you bring wetsuits for the kids?

We did the 10 day, NYC to Quebec City and then the return 10 day QC to NYC - LOVED IT

even though we hit some of the same stops coming and going, we got off the ship at all stops and walked around and did some ship excursions.  We were fortunate to have beautiful weather but it is a great cruise.

I have sailed one way Quebec to Brooklyn. Great cruise. It's not a grab a lounge and sit around the pool cruise. Pools are not over crowded. Kids usually handle colder weather. Do you swim outdoors in NY in October? Same on the ship. This is a very nice itinerary which you sail mainly for the ports and being on board.

I did a 10-Day one-way NYC to Quebec on the Emerald in mid-October in 2012 and the weather was surprisingly nice. Now the one ways only start or end in Boston I think.

The weather on my cruise was surprisingly nice and I used the Lotus pool and hot tubs a lot. But I also grew up swimming competitively in freezing pools in cold climates and love to be in a pool no matter the weather. I don't remember very many other people being in the pools. Getting out was definitely cold but only until I could get covered up.

We are sailing  at the end of this month and got both...two sea days AND a stop in NB.  It's because they cut a stop in R.I, but I think I'm happy with the extra sea day since this will be our first time on this ship.

I'm on a Canada/New England cruise RIGHT NOW on the Emerald. It sailed out of Boston. It's been a very nice cruise. The temperatures have been decently warm (highs in the 70s) and the pools are open. I've seen some takers. 

For more details than you could possibly want, here's a link to my LIVE thread: 

Loved this cruise twice.  Enchanted week before Halloween was fun and the colours still visible mid to 3 rd week in October.  Hot tubs ok.  Did d new t use pools but some did.  It was nice t cold on my cruises.

Cruisemeister2002

We do a Canada /New England from the UK this September. I have looked at what sort of temperatures we can expect. Obviously there's no guarantee and on past cruises at that time of year we have missed our last port of call which was St. John's Newfoundland due to hurricanes in fact one year it followed us up the cost. We left New York and it hit a few days later. Travelling up the coast we went down the St Lawrence river into Quebec where the hurricane passed by. It got to St john's before we did so we got in. But this year due to them apparently not dredging the harbour we are unable to get in. We have an inside cabin as we deem a balcony as probably not worth the extra due to crossing the pond and the weather not really being good enough to justify the extra outlay. We maybe would have bid on a balcony but Princess want another £1300 pp and that's a minimum.
