Description
Come cruise with us from New York City, past the Statue of Liberty, up the Hudson River, to the Erie Canal, Lake Ontario, north to Canada via the St. Lawrence River and on to the magnificent Saguenay Fjord, Quebec. You’ll spend plenty of time getting to know each city we visit, starting with a full day in New York.
For some travelers, that would be enough, but not when you’re aboard the only ship in the world that can make a trip like this. Spend 14 glorious days visiting new cities and historic landmarks, meeting the local residents, experiencing their culture and learning the history of upstate New York and the Province of Quebec.
You’ll experience first-hand going through the locks of the Erie Canal, an engineering marvel for nearly 200 years, that helped open the American west. And you’re bound to remember crossing into Canada on the scenic St. Lawrence River, and spending time in Quebec City, the closest thing to an Old World European city in North America.
From there we sail to picturesque Saguenay. You’ll marvel at the natural beauty of its fjord, but you aren’t its only visitors. This area attracts schools of Beluga Whales. So keep those cameras handy. Next is a return stop to Quebec. Who wouldn’t mind a little more time among the shops and cafes?And finally, it’s one last day of sailing down to beautiful, vibrant Montreal. Here you will disembark, taking with you the fullness of new experiences, new friendships and memories of good times.
