Imagine Cruising to...
Canada & New England
Especially beautiful in autumn, you’re bound to ‘fall’ for the exquisite charm and natural beauty of New England and Canada’s eastern seaboard.
Trees bedecked with foliage of every imaginable hue adorn the region’s coastal towns and cities, each with their own colourful character and heritage.
Wildlife lovers, photography enthusiasts, history buffs and those merely wanting to immerse themselves in the sheer thrill of the great outdoors will find this route the perfect choice for a fantastic cruise holiday of a lifetime.
Interesting shore excursions will leave you with wonderful memories of a destination in which you can almost sense the amazing excitement of those pioneering days of discovery that helped shape the destiny of the North American continent.
Your holiday may set off from New York, giving you the ideal opportunity to take a stay and cruise option with a few thrilling days experiencing the excitement of the Big Apple.
Many New England cruises stop off at Newport Rhode Island, one of the oldest towns in the whole of the US with old coaching inns dating back to the 17th century.
The brilliant blend of traditional and modern influences you’ll find in Boston also regularly features as a highlight on these itineraries with easy access from your port to many of its celebrated landmark buildings.
Here you’ll be able to step back in time on a Freedom Trail or a heritage tour which tells of the lives of great American Bostonians like Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere.

Bar Harbor welcomes cruise passengers with a charming seafront of colourful buildings and quaint cobbled streets and then surprises you with the amazing Acadia National Park, just a short drive inland, with its white-tailed deer and bald eagles offering reward for the alert photographer. In this lovely corner of Maine, Mother Nature has carved a spectacular coastal vista of rocky outcrops and sweeping stony bays – a dramatic location from which to settle down for a succulent lobster bake. As you move on up into Canada you may well be met at the harbour by a piper in traditional tartans as you approach Novia Scotia’s capital Halifax, The City of Trees - a bustling and modern place, yet careful to preserve its natural beauty. More European influences are encountered in North America’s oldest city, St John’s Newfoundland whose delightful old streets and wonderfully sculpted building frontages ooze architectural character. And Vieux-Quebec’s archaic fortifications and stone churches provide more great sightseeing opportunities as you venture further into the Canadian waters. If your itinerary allows, then do try to take an excursion off the beaten track to reach the Bay of Fundy whose awe-inspiring tidal swells are among the highest anywhere on the planet – an experience not to be missed if you get the chance. This beautiful, colourful and exciting part of the world is on the list of destinations of many of the world’s leading cruise lines, including Cunard, Princess Cruises, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Holland America Line and P&O Cruises. |
