    1 Monday, August 31, 2026 New York, USA Embark 12:00 AM
    View of New York, USA

    New York is situated on the Atlantic coast of NE United States. With its world-class museums, big statues, even bigger buildings and being the most linguistically diverse city in the world, the Big Apple’s hyperactive rush keeps drawing more and more people to it. The City of New York is a densely packed mass of humanity and all this living on top of one another makes the New Yorker a special kind of person. Read more about New York, USA

    3 Wednesday, September 2, 2026 Boston, USA 12:00 PM 12:00 AM
    View of Boston, USA

    Boston is the capital and largest city in Massachusetts, USA. Calling this quaint and delightful city the 'Athens of America' might seem a bit pretentious, but the city's 19th-century glory radiates through its grand architecture, and its world-renowned academic and cultural institutions. Disastrous 'urban renewal' projects in the 1950s provoked such a furious backlash that Boston now has some of the best preserved historic buildings and neighbourhoods in the country.

    6 Saturday, September 5, 2026 Halifax, Canada 8:01 AM 6:00 PM
    View of Halifax, Canada

    Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia, the Gateway to Atlantic Canada, is a lively and colourful combination of urban and rural living at its best. It is situated on the world’s second largest harbour, and the beautifully restored waterfront buildings recall the city's centuries-old maritime heritage, which is also cleverly explained at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Visit the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21, and the Halifax Citadel that explores the unique local heritage. Read more about Halifax, Canada

    7 Sunday, September 6, 2026 Sail The Gulf Of St. Lawrence

    View of Gaspe, Canada

    Gaspe is a town at the tip of the Gaspe Peninsula in eastern Quebec, Canada. This is where Jacques Cartier took possession of Nouvelle-France, now Canada, by planting a wooden cross with the King's coat of arms, and the sentence ‘Hail to the King of France’. The isolated promontory, known locally as La Gaspesie, has remnants of a colorful colonial past, which can be seen on a coastline that bulges into the gulf, overlooking rusting shipwrecks and migratory whales.

    11 Thursday, September 10, 2026 Quebec, Canada 7:30 AM 6:00 PM
    View of Quebec, Canada

    Quebec, capital of the Canadian province of the same name, is so ‘French’ it is said that to visit Quebec is to experience France without crossing the Atlantic. French must be the predominant language on signs, retail or food service employees always greet customers in French, and there are even laws dictating whether parents can send their children to English or French school. The architecture, ambience and mostly French-speaking citizens are proof that some of France has been permanently ingrained in North America. Read more about Quebec, Canada

    12 Friday, September 11, 2026 Montreal, Canada 8:00 AM 12:00 AM
    View of Montreal, Canada

    Montreal is the largest city in Quebec, Canada, and is also the largest inland port in the world. Situated between a majestic mountain and the sparkling St Lawrence River, sailing into the port with its impressive skyline of grand 19th century grey stone buildings never loses its fascination for passengers. Old Montreal is one of the main attractions, where visitors can travel by horse-drawn carriages, stroll along the cobble stone streets, visit museums, art galleries, chic boutiques and vintage coffee shops.
