Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. If you're out of shape, kayaking of any kind can be strenuous. We did the clear kayaking several years ago and it was a breezy (not windy) day. Going one way was fine. Returning against the breeze was quite different. I was in a kayak by myself, and I worked pretty hard that day.
  2. We have rented a car in Halifax for less than $100 for the day. Much less than most tours. Pickup appears to be about 2 blocks from the waterfront, so walkable.
  3. mets123 what can you tell me about the train ride? Where does it go? Cost? What is it called so I can look it up?
  4. I'm sorry. I'm very confused about the shuttles. Is there a recommended shuttle company? Can you book them in advance? What is the fare from the port to Boston Common?
  5. I really like the Freedom Trail idea if the weather is nice. What is the best way to get to Boston Common from the port? Taxi? Uber? Subway?
  6. Also, as I think I understand it, private vehicles are not allowed up Cadillac Mountain without a special permit. Is that correct? The trolley tour will get you there.
  7. As I look at Olli's and Acadia tours I notice that they both offer a 2.5 hour tour and a longer 4 hour tour. Where do the longer tours go that the shorter ones don't visit? Which is preferable?
  8. I was considering taking the train to Freeport to LL Bean. How difficult is this to do on our own? Where is the train station in relation to the pier? I also love the boat outings listed here. They look like great fun.
  9. I have the same question about Bar Harbor. It appears that car rental places are all at the airport which is some distance from the port. Anyone know of anything closer?
  10. We are thinking of taking the train into Freeport. How far is the train from the port and is it walkable?
  11. What is the favorite restaurant you refer to here?
  12. We are not ship excursion people. What should we plan to do with a car in Peggy's Cove/Halifax?
  13. When I put in Bar Harbor for car rental, I keep getting agencies in Ellsworth 13 miles away. Where/Who is the best place to rent from in Bar harbor that is closest to the port? And is this a good port to rent a car? We would like to do Acadia on our own. And what's the real story on getting into Bar Harbor? We are on Liberty of the Seas. Will we be allowed into Bar harbor without a ship excursion?
  14. So would you say there is no need for car rental in Halifax? I have a car rented to go to Peggy's Cove, but now I'm thinking it may not be necessary.
