2024 Canada & New England Excursions
Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast, a history buff, a foodie, or a sightseeing tourist, there's an excursion for everyone on this cruise.
Parque Nacional Acadia
Acadia National Park is one of the most popular attractions on a Canada and New England cruise. Located on Maine's Mount Desert Island, the park is filled with verdant forests, rugged coastlines, and towering mountains. During fall, the park explodes in a cacophony of colors as the leaves change, making it a must-visit site for leaf-peeping enthusiasts.
One of the main highlights of Acadia is the 57 miles of rustic carriage roads, a gift from philanthropist John D. Rockefeller Jr. These roads, devoid of motor vehicles, offer visitors a serene and unique way to explore the park, be it on foot, bike, or even by horse-drawn carriage.
El rastro del Capitán Cook
Embark on a historical journey by following Captain Cook's Trail, an excursion that takes you on the same route Captain James Cook took over 250 years ago. This experience provides you with a unique opportunity to walk in the footsteps of one of the world's most famous explorers, whose travels led him to discover New Zealand, Australia, and Hawaii.
The trail is located in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada's easternmost province. Captain Cook spent several years surveying the area, and his work was so accurate that some of his charts are still in use today.
Highlights of the trail include Cook's Lookout, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the area that Captain Cook once surveyed. You can also visit the Captain James Cook Historic Site in Corner Brook to learn more about his life and adventures.
Fortress of Louisbourg
