From Fresh Lobster to an infamous Tea Party, Reversing Falls to the smallest Province in Canada and the home of World War II convoys to the only walled fortress in North America – there is something for everyone. A business class train through the scenery of new England connects Manhattan to Boston and the wonderful scenery continues on a 10 night Canadian Maritime voyage.
Itinerary
Fly to New York and make your own way to central Manhattan for an overnight hotel stay.
A further overnight hotel stay. Explore this buzzing city in a continual sweep starting in Central Park and working south towards Wall Street and Battery Park where boat trips depart for The Statue of Liberty and the fascinating Immigration Museum on Ellis Island. Definitely take advantage of the shopping on 5th Avenue. Stop off for a coffee in the golden atrium of the Trump Tower and stroll through the Rockerfelller Centre on your way to marvel at the bright lights of Times Square. Soak up the panoramic views from the viewing platform at the top of the Empire State Building as the sun sets over the horizon and the lights twinkle on.
Board the Amtrak train at New York Penn Station at 11am and travel in business class through the New England scenery to Back Bay Station in Boston arriving at 1520. Make your own way to your nearby hotel for an overnight hotel stay.
A further overnight hotel stay. Boston is home to the 400-year-old Harvard University, the Boston Tea Party, Cheers and Ally Mc Beal! The central area of Boston is called Back Bay where you will find the Copley Plaza shopping area, Boston Common, Faneuil Hall Marketplace and Beacon Hill. Beacon Hill runs along the north edge of Boston Common and is home to the original pub called Cheers. Faneuil Hall Market place is the bustling centre of Boston with Quincy Market which looks rather like Covent Garden in London. Here you will find lots of shops, bars and restaurants including the famous Irish pubs. Also in this area you will find The 18th Century Schooner Liberty used in the uprising against the British, The Boston Aquarium and the site of the original Boston Tea Party which triggered the American War of Independence. The best way to the learn the most about this historic centre of the USA is to follow the two and a half mile long Freedom Trail. This was the very route that Paul Revere took to warn of the British invasion of the city.
Make your own way to the nearby cruise terminal to embark the ship.
Portland is perched on a peninsula, jutting out into the island-studded Casco Bay. This city of 230,000 people is a progressive, lively city incorporating the character of yesteryear into a modern urban environment. Historic architecture blends gracefully with the new as you stroll along her working waterfront or the cobblestone streets of the restored Old Port section of the city.
This charming town is situated on the Bay of Fundy which has one of the largest tidal ranges in the world. The St John rivers empties into the Bay of Fundy here and when the tide is low the water cascades one way and when the tide is high the water reverses and cascades the other. Many people come here for this reason to take white water ride in the reversing falls.
Relax and make the most of the myriad of facilities available on board the ship, from fantastic entertainment to delicious and diverse dining options.
Located on one of the world's great natural harbours, Halifax is adorned with landmarks like the Citadel fortress, Pier 21 (Canada's Ellis Island), and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic - which is well worth a visit to see the artefacts recovered from the Titanic. Learn about the formation of World War II convoys which gathered here to run the gauntlet of U-Boats across the Atlantic and the gun ship collision during World War I which caused as catastrophic explosion and flattened the city. Another interesting spot to visit is the graveyard of the victims from the Titanic disaster which were recovered by the local fleet. Beyond the city, you can discover the weather-beaten landscape of Nova Scotia's south shore. See craggy coastlines, and the German village of Lunenburg - a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Sydney was founded in 1785 and named in honour of Britain's Home Secretary at the time, Thomas Townsend, 1st Viscount Sydney; a few years later, Sydney, Australia would also be named after him. Sydney's original settlers included former soldiers and Loyalists escaping the chaos following the American Revolution. The town was the English capital of Cape Breton Island from its founding until 1820, when the island colony and its rich coal fields became part of Nova Scotia. It was that coal that would transform Sydney from a colonial town in Cape Breton into a major industrial centre, becoming a world leader in steel production. That industrial growth saw Sydney officially become a city in 1904, welcoming workers and their families from around the province and world. Today, Sydney continues to welcome people from around the world as they come to visit the city and the beautiful island of Cape Breton.
Canada's smallest province is an island that seems to be tethered to New Brunswick by the 8-mile-long Confederation Bridge lest it drift into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Leave the mainland, cross the bridge, and make a right for Charlottetown. With red-sand beaches, lighthouses and an interior of fertile farmland, it's nicknamed "Garden of the Gulf." It's renowned for its seafood, notably lobster and mussels. Charlottetown, the relaxed capital, is home to 1847 Province House, birthplace of the nation of Canada. Here you will find Victorian architecture, an abundance of parks and a bustling harbour. Walk the cobblestones of Victoria Row, see the house that inspired "Anne of Green Gables," or explore the wild shore of Prince Edward Island National Park.
Relax and make the most of the myriad of facilities available on board the ship, from fantastic entertainment to delicious and diverse dining options.
This region gets its name from Lac Saint-Jean, a veritable inland sea, and the Rivière Saguenay, which flows in an amazing fjord. The waterside communities here enjoy a vibrant cultural life and the year-round adventure tourism offering is superb. Discover this fascinating and vast territory!

Overnight on board in port. The singular image of Quebec city is the hilltop citadel hotel surrounded by cannons - representing the only fortress on the North American continent. Built to evoke a mountain castle, Chateau Frontenac sits atop a cape above the St. Lawrence River. The hotel is part of the city's Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and with all the stone buildings and winding streets, you'll think you're in Europe. You can take the funicular or the zig-zag hairpin bends to the cobbled streets of the Petit Champlain Quarter.
