Portland’s city tour is rated #1 in the US according to info on the web. The lady bus driver never stopped giving us facts and telling us stories the whole 90 minutes we were on the bus. In fact, so much information we could not keep up with it. Portland has an ice free natural deep water harbor so they can do business on the bay all year long.
The city is in the process of building a 17 acre accommodation for 3 cruise ships, hotel, restaurants and shopping for tourists visiting Maine. It is out near one of the upscale historic housing areas on East Prominade where many historic homes were built in the 19th century.
