September 2027: 30 Night Supercraft Cruise

Embark on a Transatlantic voyage to the New World and discover the Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia, Quebec and Newfoundland in early fall, when Autumn colours are beginning to appear. You return across the Atlantic via the Azores on this all-inclusive cruise to Canada in 2027. Relax on board Spirit of Discovery and enjoy the activities and facilities before arriving at Canada’s east coast to visit Halifax. The port of departure for recovery missions after the sinking of the Titanic, Halifax has a rich maritime history which you can learn all about at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, before cruising to Gaspé. The Gaspé peninsula is renowned for its dramatic coastal scenery, easily recognisable from the large sea arch of Percé Rock. It is here that Jacques Cartier claimed Canada for France in 1534 during his voyage to the New World.

Enjoy an extended visit to Quebec City, with its 17th-century fortifications and UNESCO-listed Old Town. Key sights include the grand Fairmont Chateau Frontenac, which is set on a promontory in the Upper Town, Terrasse Dufferin boardwalk, and the historic Plains of Abraham, a vast park where the Battle of Quebec was fought in 1759. Next, cruise to a new port of call for Spirit of Discovery, Saguenay, which has a scenic setting on the edge of the majestic Saguenay Fjord. Returning to Nova Scotia, uncover history linked to the American Revolution in Sydney and call at Charlottetown on the island of Prince Edward, the setting for Lucy Maud Montgomery’s classic novel, ‘Anne of Green Gables’. On the island of Newfoundland, explore Corner Brook on the west coast and St John’s on the east. The return journey includes a visit to Sao Miguel in the Azores, renowned for its scenic crater lakes and hot springs.
