Description
From Toronto, set sail with PONANT aboard Le Champlain for a 11-day cruise to discover the vast unspoiled expanses of the North American continent.
You will call at two emblematic cities in the province of Quebec: Montreal, renowned for its liveliness and its cultural vibrancy and Quebec City, for its historic district listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, home to ramparts and churches.
Whales, dolphins and seals await you. At the mouth of Saguenay River, you will reach Tadoussac in the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park, an unmissable site for whale watching as the mammals gather to feed before winter.
Further on, you will reach Percé, one of the most scenic villages of Quebec, close to a National Park famed for its natural, historical and geological heritage.
The Magdalen Islands offer an unusual variety of landscapes, from the white of the sandy beaches to the red of the sculpted cliff faces. You will be captivated not only by the natural setting but by the hospitality of the inhabitants.
Le Champlain will then cruise along the coasts of Nova Scotia, home to great historical towns and villages of unrivalled cachet.
You will conclude your journey in Boston, considered to be the cradle of the United States for the key role it played during the American Revolution.
