Ports of Call

Boston, Massachusetts, US

Boston, United States

Saint John, New Brunswick

Saint John is a city of substance, built by Loyalists and defined by the world’s highest tides. Its appeal lies not in grand monuments but in its authentic, unpretentious maritime character. The cruise terminal places you at the edge of “Uptown,” a compact, walkable core of impressive Victorian brick architecture, a testament to the city’s resilience after the Great Fire of 1877.

The main attraction is a natural curiosity: the Reversing Falls Rapids, where the mighty Bay of Fundy tide collides with the Saint John River, forcing it to flow backward. While not a traditional waterfall, it’s a compelling display of nature’s power. For a taste of local life, head to the Saint John City Market, the oldest continuing farmer’s market in Canada. Its distinctive roof, resembling an inverted ship’s hull, shelters vendors selling everything from fresh seafood and local produce to artisanal crafts.

Saint John is best appreciated on foot. Stroll along Prince William Street to admire the historic streetscape, explore the independent shops and galleries, and enjoy a local craft beer. It’s a port for those who appreciate history, architecture, and a genuine sense of place without the crowds of a major metropolis.

At Sea - Cruising

Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

Halifax Harbour skyline at sunset, Nova Scotia
Halifax is a port city that feels immediately accessible and authentic, its identity deeply intertwined with the sea. Ships dock conveniently near the city center, allowing for an easy, independent exploration of its historic core. The waterfront boardwalk is the natural starting point, a vibrant pathway lined with restored warehouses now housing artisan shops, galleries, and pubs. The air here carries the scent of salt and fried fish, setting a distinctly maritime tone.

A short walk from the piers, the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic offers compelling exhibits that connect directly to the city’s soul. Its collection includes poignant artifacts from the Titanic disaster—as Halifax was the primary recovery base—and a moving account of the catastrophic 1917 Halifax Explosion. This is not a trivial museum; it’s a powerful look into the events that shaped the North Atlantic.
Halifax, Canada


For a commanding view and a dose of military history, a steady uphill walk leads to the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site. This star-shaped fort has guarded the harbor for centuries. The noon gun is a daily tradition, and the costumed interpreters portraying the 78th Highlanders bring the past to life. Back at sea level, the Victorian-era Public Gardens offer a serene and beautifully maintained contrast to the bustling waterfront.

While the iconic Peggy’s Cove lighthouse is a popular excursion, Halifax itself offers more than enough to fill a day. The city’s appeal lies in its blend of significant history, a lively but relaxed pub culture, and a genuine, unpretentious welcome.

Bar Harbor, Maine, US

Bar Harbor, United States
A rustic log bridge crosses a rushing stream at Acadia National Park in Bar Harbor, Maine. Vibrant autumn leaves frame a historic stone arch bridge and waterfall in the background, showcasing a scenic fall shore excursion for cruise passengers.

Portland, Maine

Portland, United States
Portland offers an authentic taste of New England's maritime spirit, all within a remarkably walkable historic center. The city’s heart is the Old Port, a district of cobblestone lanes and handsome 19th-century brick warehouses. Once the hub of maritime trade, these buildings now house a vibrant collection of independent boutiques, art galleries, and pubs, making for a delightful day of exploration on foot directly from the pier.
Portland, United States


The culinary scene is a genuine highlight. While the classic lobster roll is a must-try, Portland’s reputation extends to a sophisticated sea-to-table dining culture and a thriving craft beer scene. You can find exceptional food at nearly every turn, from casual seafood shacks to acclaimed restaurants.

For a quintessential Maine vista, a short trip to nearby Cape Elizabeth reveals the iconic Portland Head Light, one of America’s most photographed lighthouses. Back in the city, the Arts District along Congress Street provides a more contemporary cultural experience. Portland is not a city of grand monuments; its appeal lies in its compact scale, preserved character, and the simple pleasure of exploring a historic seaport with a modern, creative energy.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
  • Lost/stolen travel documents
