Montréal blends old-world French character with a distinctly modern energy, while Québec City wears its history openly with in its fortified walls, cobblestone streets, and centuries-old architecture. Visit a sugar shack in the Québec countryside and learn about maple products and the traditions behind them. Stand in awe as you watch the immense Niagara Falls thunder down a cliffside spraying a fine mist of water into the air. The Gulf of St. Lawrence is the largest estuary in the world, and a beautiful waterway to navigate. This is best experienced from the deck of a ship, where the scale of it becomes clear. From island ports and harbour cities to the storied streets of Boston, this journey moves at a pace that lets each place sink in.
