Which port would you prefer Boston or Bar Harbor

NCL and Carnival both are doing a Canada/NE itinerary. The only difference in the ports is NCL goes to Boston and Carnival goes to Bar Harbor. Which port would you prefer? I haven't been to both. Thanks for your comments.

No way to know what YOU would prefer.

Apples and oranges, really.

Both have their positive features.

Boston is a major city. Attractions include Revolutionary War sites (Freedom Trail), architecture, cultural offerings, a big city harbor, big city food choices, big city bustle........

Bar Harbor is a charming, iconic New England small town and harbor, which is an access point to the major national park in the area.

Why don't you look at some videos of both on YouTube to help you decide which appeals most to you right now?

Since I can be in Boston in about an hour, I'd go with Bar Harbor :)

Thank you for the link - it was very helpful reading the differences to the two ports.

I have a Canada & New England Cruise Blog with some videos and pictures from both Boston and Bar Harbor.
