Quebec City
Mi., 24. Juli
Abfahrt 19:00
Established by the French settler Samuel de Champlain before the British landed on these shores Quebec City - initially known as New France - is one of North America's oldest cities. Towering over the banks of the Saint-Lawrence River Quebec City relishes in details and eccentricities and has reams of rich history and beautiful architecture - like the famous Château Frontenac. This chandelier-clad castle watches over the city and is said to be the world’s most photographed hotel. The wooden boardwalk of the canon-lined Dufferin Terrace offers stunning views of the city from its elevated standpoint. The French storybook feel has been delightfully protected and preserved in Quebec City's storied old quarter and a funicular links the upper and lower towns of this historic core. The 400-year-old fortified city is unique to North America and a celebrated UNESCO World Heritage Site. Mind your step as you wander through uneven cobbled streets to Place Royale - the charming spot where the city was founded - and between the bistros boulevards and boutiques of the dainty Quartier Petit Champlain area. There’s a wide variety of delicious international food to try and of course – greasy helpings of poutine. Taste local cheeses at the Marché du Vieux-Port indoor market where you’ll sink your teeth into buttery cakes pastries and encounter Canada’s fabled tree sap maple syrup - revered like wine in these parts.
Saguenay (Quebec)
Do., 25. Juli
Ankunft 08:30
The gateway to the Saguenay Fjord the city lies at the intersection of a triad of sprawling national parks amid some of North America’s most impressive scenery. Embark on adventures to witness leaping waterfalls forest-clad fjord banks and whales crashing athletically offshore. Learn more of Saguenay's heritage with a tour of the picturesque pulp mill which dates back to the 1800s and now houses a museum. Elsewhere the Petite Maison Blanche is a humble wooden house that was one of the few buildings to survive the floods of 1947. It’s the expansive scenery of Fjord-du-Saguenay National Park that draws most visitors to this part of Northern Quebec however and you can venture out to immerse yourself in the immense Ice Age fjord's national park as it gouges through a spectacular 60-mile route before unloading into the St. Lawrence River. Said to be the Northern Hemisphere’s most southerly fjord – and one of the world’s longest - it's 270 metres deep in parts and towered over by steep scenic slopes. Get out to meet the area’s varied wildlife – which ranges from moose and wolves to orcas belugas and blue whales. Sail on the surface in kayaks or take a sightseeing cruise. Earthy trails invite you to hike in the fresh air among fragrant pine needles while daring strung bridges mountain bike routes and climbable rock faces cater to the adventurous. Secluded rocky beaches and rejuvenating spas offer a more relaxed way to experience Saguenay's charms.
Day at sea
Fr., 26. Juli
Ankunft 18:00
Days at sea are the perfect opportunity to relax unwind and catch up with what you’ve been meaning to do. So whether that is going to the gym, visiting the spa, whale watching, catching up on your reading or simply topping up your tan these blue sea days are the perfect balance to busy days spent exploring shore side.
Gaspé (Quebec)
Sa., 27. Juli
Ankunft 08:00
Set on the rugged, windswept shores of the
Saint Lawrence River in the south of Quebec lies the province of Gaspé. Like
much of the surrounding region, Gaspé offers outstanding scenery, hundreds of
colonies of Northern Ganets and colourful cottages perched upon rocky outposts.
But, aside from the exquisite natural beauty that is commonplace in the region,
Gaspé is much like its neighbours. It’s claim to fame is that it is named “the
birthplace of Canada” as French explorer Jacques Cartier landed here on his
voyage across the Atlantic in 1534.However, it is the four national parks that
are found within the Gaspé peninsula that sets it apart from the crowd. The
parks, including Bonaventure-Island-and-Percé-Rock and Forillon National
Park (the latter of which is found entirely within Gaspé’s borders) preserve
the wild beauty of its coast, and features various geological formations and
phenomena dating up to 450 million years old. Carved out of the sea, cliffs and
mountains, the miles of majestic landscapes are like no other place on earth. Anyone
lucky enough to visit during fall will rejoice at the spectrum of colour.The famous pierced rock at Percé is another
bucket list sight that should not be missed. As one of the world’s largest and
most spectacular natural arches (approximate age 375 million years old), the
pierced rock is one of the icons of Canadian tourism. An added attraction,
particularly if you are a birder, is that the rock is a nesting place for
cormorants, kittiwakes and seagulls.

Halifax, Nova Scotia
Mo., 29. Juli
Ankunft 08:00
A city that thrives on a diet of music, outdoor events and ocean-faring history, Nova Scotia's capital - and Atlantic Canada's largest conurbation - oozes salt-licked charm. The star-shaped fortress of Halifax Citadel sits above the city, while down below, Halifax revolves around its bustling harbour. Here, jet-skis skid across the water and heritage ships jaunt out to scenic offshore islands. Music carries on the waterfront's breeze as summer’s events play out, while a hefty population of pubs and restaurants provides all the space required for sitting back and relaxing. The shorefront boardwalk invites you on a gentle stroll along the waves, wandering back through Halifax's history. The Canadian Museum of Immigration waits at Pier 21 and was the doorway to a country of opportunity for so many - with over a million immigrants taking their first footsteps into Canada here. The pier's wooden boards are dotted with cafes, craft shops and artist studios. Sail deeper into seafaring heritage at the maritime museum. As the closest city to the sinking of the Titanic, recovered victims were transported to - and many were buried - in Halifax. The story, and items from the doomed vessel, are displayed in the museum's collection. Peggy's Cove lighthouse is nearby, and this immaculate little lighthouse is one of Canada's favourite, watching out stoically over the Atlantic's waves. With rich pickings available from its coastal location, the fruits of the sea are served up in the fryers of Halifax's varied restaurants - try seared scallops and juicy mussels. Round off any meal with a buttery blueberry grunt dessert – delicious when served up warm with a dollop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Saint John, New Brunswick
Mi., 31. Juli
Ankunft 08:00
Looking out over the gaping Bay of Fundy,
which brews with incredible tidal power, Saint John is surrounded by incredible
natural spectacles. Canada’s oldest incorporated city, the history here dates
back to 1604, and the redbrick warehouses of the waterfront have been given a
new lease of life as busy pubs, microbreweries and trendy cafes. Historic
architecture has been beautifully preserved, and forts nearby offer privileged
vantage points over raw and wild coastal landscapes.A place to feel the full force of nature, Saint
John is surrounded by tides that swell and fall dramatically. This generates an
unusual phenomenon known as the Reversing Rapids - created by the collision of
the Saint John River and the Bay of Fundy’s waters. Frothing whirlpools and burbling
rapids are generated at high tide, forcing the river’s flow into reverse, back
up the river mouth. The Reversing Falls Bridge stretches across this
extraordinary natural performance, with a newly installed skywalk offering a
hair-raising perspective from above. The Fundy Footpath takes you out into the
fresh air, to look down over tumbling cliffs, and tree-lined coastline that
breaks off to quiet pebbled beaches. Saint Martins’ famous sea caves are
nearby, revealed when the tide ebbs away and the seabed is exposed. Stonehammer
Geopark's landscapes - forged by continental plates smashing together - are
also within reach.Listen for the bell that rings out from
Saint John City Market, North America’s oldest uninterrupted farmer’s market,
which first opened in 1876. Try scallops, wrapped with bacon and drizzled with
maple syrup, or the quintessential lobster roll. The beautiful Imperial Theatre
is Saint John's cultural hub, and the venue for a refined evening’s
entertainment.
Portland, Maine
Do., 1. August
Ankunft 08:00
Lighthouses, lobsters and long stretches of
beach epitomise Portland. And while that still rings true, Portland is
changing. So today, along with the bearded fishermen who have spent their lives
at sea, expect a fair smattering of bearded hipsters, who inject their lives
into the city.Portland is a place that delivers, whatever
time of year. Summer and you’ll be enjoying some of those famous beaches and
winter will have you cosying up around fires in log cabins. Spring is when the
glorious forests come back to life but autumn is when Portland’s literal true
colours shine through.The east coast’s famous fall foliage is
everywhere, and for anyone lucky enough to be visiting the region around this
time of year it would be a crime not to enjoy pyrotechnical displays of Mother
Nature’s finest work. But there is much more to this maritime city than trees –
although that is enough for many. Victorian architecture, a thriving, arts
scene from crafts to clothing and world famous cuisine (Portland has the most
restaurants per capita, second only to San Francisco), have put Portland on the
map.The city was founded in 1632 and quickly
prospered through shipbuilding and export. The extension of the Canada Trunk Railway
to the city gave Portland a heady status as being 100 miles closer to Europe
than any other US port, and it became a boom town. A key destination on the
freedom trail that helped African Americans escape slavery in the South, the
town has retained its tolerant ambience and laid back feel.
Boston Massachusetts
Fr., 2. August
Ankunft 08:00
Historic yet revolutionary, few places embody the American dream quite as well as Boston - and you’ll feel the strong independent streak, and pride in the founding ideals of freedom and independence wherever you go. Skyscrapers mingle harmoniously with cobbled streets, and every footstep here promises new tales of legend, daring and valour, as you walk through the pages of history and immerse yourself in the stories of one of the USA’s oldest cities. The flashing colours of Fall – a period when the foliage around Boston explodes with blazes of red, orange and purple – attract visitors from across the world, more than compensating for the northerly city’s harsh winters. Green open spaces like Boston Public Garden also decorate the city, offering breathing space, and the chance to enjoy blossom-perfumed sanctuary,as you sit among scampering squirrels and quiet boating lakes. At times, Boston feels like an open-air history museum, and the Freedom Trail links together the city’s many valuable historic sites. It’s no exaggeration to say that the world’s history pivoted significantly on this humble two-and-a-half-mile trail. Wander across incendiary sites like the Boston Massacre Site, and Bunker Hill - where the first shots of the American Revolutionary War were fired, eventually leading to independence from British rule. Fenway Park is the cathedral-like home of Boston’s famous Red Sox, and a must visit for any sports fan. You’ll also find plenty of acclaimed New England seafood to sample, including famous buttery clam chowder. Restaurants in the thriving Seaport District serve up freshly harvested crab and lobster, accompanied by spectacular views of the crashing Atlantic waves.
