I had a wonderful time traveling with my friends. Unfortunately, Kim from Best of Times seemed completely out of her element. She was largely absent throughout the trip, and when she did make an appearance, she was not particularly helpful. Her lack of involvement and support was disappointing and made this trip more difficult That’s why I gave it a 3 star rating

It was an awesome time. It was just right with the free day to do whatever you wanted. We loved it all and also enjoyed our time in Cooperstown. Everything seemed to be timed just right for the whole trip.

We had a great time in Niagara Falls. Ally was so helpful and kept us updated throughout the trip. She is so kind and thoughtful. The hotel, meals and tours were fantastic.

At the beginning of our trip to board the NCL Breakaway was a disaster. I experienced the worst embarkation of my life! I am an experienced cruise ship person on other lines. The van picked us up ok from the Salem Senior Center on May 24-May 31, 2026 ok, but left us a country mile from where we needed to check in. Our so called Best of Times representative Kim was suppose to meet us at the NCL check in line- never saw her until her meeting in the afternoon of embarkation day. The same day we boarded the ship. Kim gave us very weak apologies- for our boarding chaos process. We are older clients-need more guidance etc. The NCL ship was great and we made up for everything we first experienced on arrival. Not because of our Host Kim. Also she was not prepared to have the ship push those in wheel chairs and needing porters for our luggage when we got on the pier. She wanted us to walk off the ship with our luggage. Once Kim realized and accepted our problems- she said she was only a sales agent of Best of Times! While waiting in the wheelchair area- Kim was walking by with a small group of people who could walk off. She looked at us waiting for wheelchairs and at that moment realized that she should be with us in need. Please make sure that a knowledgeable representative in the future accompanies your clients.

This was the most screwed up trip I’ve ever been on tour. God never met us at the ship aboard took two hours and 15 minutes to get on once we got there we never saw the tour guide until two days later she forgot to change her clock our tour trip in Bermuda was canceled and we couldn’t rebook because it was too late. The driver that picked us up to return us home to Salem mass council on agent put in Salem New Hampshire and took us another half hour to get home. I’m not sure I would ever consider touring with best time travel or we travel again.

Joanne - Thank you for your comments and alerting us to issues. Unfortunately, this is the first we are hearing of these issues and we would certainly ask that you contact us to address them. We will be sure to reach out to our Livery supplier Knights Limo Service to ascertain how the driver put in Salem NH as the destination. As there were 11 individuals in the Executive Van riding did nobody notice or say anything to the driver that he was driving in the wrong direction to take you home? We understand the challenges for all guests at the Boston Pier. Arrival and departure from the cruise ship in Boston is the most challenging of any port we experience in our cruise offerings. Other departure ports can handle the departure and subsequent arrival of guests at the piers in a more efficient manner. There has been a long-standing request by the cruise industry for the Boston Port Authority to find a remedy, but it has yet to prevail. It is our understanding that guests to it upon themselves to depart the Van upon arriving at the Pier versus following instructions to wait to be greeted by our Best of Times Travel representative as listed on both the Transportation Letter and Final Trip Packet. Since guests did not follow instructions we were unable to supply our guests the materials waiting them at the Pier allowing us to identify our guests as Best of Times Travel guests instead of being intermingled with other cruise passengers. Regarding your comments about our Tour Manager Kim, were you having issues on the ship that needed her attention and intervention to assist you with issues? Did you actively seek out her assistance by visiting our Hospitality Desk that was scheduled throughout the cruise? Did you call her cabin for assistance, leave a message, and not receive assistance? Did you not attend the mandatory departure meeting for all our guests to obtain clear instructions regarding departure? Our Tour Manager is there to provide help, assistance, guidance, and support for guests that need and want that service. For guests that are experienced cruisers we do sometimes find that they do their own thing, as it is truly their vacation and personal experience that matters, and feel no need to interact with our Tour Manager. We welcome the opportunity to discuss all these matters with you and will in the meantime follow up with the Livery Service to find out what happened there. Please call our office at your earliest convenience.
