Day 1
Montreal, Quebec Canada
Montréal is a city of French character and North American energy, best explored on foot. From the Old Port, cobbled streets lead to Old Montréal’s grand squares, cafés and Notre-Dame Basilica. Climb or drive up Mount Royal for a broad view of the skyline and the St. Lawrence River. Then follow the city’s appetite, from market produce and bagels to inventive French-Canadian cooking. Allow time for the museums and lively terraces; Montréal’s pleasures are close together, but never feel hurried.
-
Day 2
Quebec City, Canada
Quebec City is best explored on foot, where centuries of French and British history meet above the St. Lawrence River. In its fortified Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stone lanes lead to Place Royale and the Château Frontenac. Ride the funicular between Upper and Lower Town, then pause for a view of the river and Île d’Orléans. Beyond the walls, Montmorency Falls drops 83 metres, higher than Niagara, and makes an easy excursion from the city.
-
Day 3
Saguenay, Quebec Canada
Your ship calls at La Baie, where the Saguenay River opens onto a landscape shaped by ice, forest and water. From here, the Saguenay Fjord’s steep cliffs and deep waters lead toward the St. Lawrence. Explore local history at the Musée du Fjord, or head to Chicoutimi for cafés, galleries and the Petite Maison Blanche. Return to the waterfront for wide views across the bay and a taste of Quebec’s maritime north.
-
Day 5
Prince Edward Island, Charlottetown, Canada
Prince Edward Island rewards a slower pace, with red-sand beaches, working farms and quiet coastal roads. Charlottetown hosted the 1864 conference that helped shape Canada. Its compact streets pair Victorian architecture with independent shops and lively restaurants. Beyond the capital, head north to Green Gables Heritage Place or stop for fresh lobster at a roadside seafood shack. Bridge, ferry and air links make this small province easy to explore.
-
Day 7
St Johns NL, Newfoundland-Labrador Canada
St. John’s sits at the edge of the North Atlantic, where steep streets descend toward a working harbor. The compact center rewards time on foot, with Victorian row houses, independent shops and historic churches clustered around Water Street. Climb Signal Hill for views across the harbor and coastline. At Cabot Tower, learn how Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal here in 1901. Leave room for fresh seafood and local music.
-
Day 8
Saint Pierre and Miquelon Islands, France
Off Newfoundland’s southern coast, Saint-Pierre and Miquelon offer a distinctly French stop in North America. Saint-Pierre, the larger settlement, lines a sheltered harbor with colorful houses, cafés and narrow streets. The islands’ seafaring history is visible in their museums and waterfront, while Miquelon’s dunes and lagoons invite a quieter outing. Bring a warm layer: Atlantic weather can change quickly, even in summer.
-
Day 10
Havre-Saint-Pierre, Quebec Canada
Havre-Saint-Pierre sits on Quebec’s Côte-Nord, where the Gulf of St. Lawrence meets a coast shaped by wind and tide. Its nearby Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve is famed for sculpted limestone monoliths scattered across islands and islets. Boat excursions reveal seabird colonies, remote shores and formations best seen from the water. Back in town, sample local seafood and enjoy the unhurried rhythm of this small coastal community.
-
Day 12
Montreal, Quebec Canada
Montréal is a city of French character and North American energy, best explored on foot. From the Old Port, cobbled streets lead to Old Montréal’s grand squares, cafés and Notre-Dame Basilica. Climb or drive up Mount Royal for a broad view of the skyline and the St. Lawrence River. Then follow the city’s appetite, from market produce and bagels to inventive French-Canadian cooking. Allow time for the museums and lively terraces; Montréal’s pleasures are close together, but never feel hurried.
