Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Quebec City
The walled capital of Québec on a bluff above the St. Lawrence River, the only fortified city north of Mexico. Cobbled Old Québec, the landmark Château Frontenac, and the historic Petit-Champlain quarter give it a distinctly French character.

- Day3
Saguenay
A port on the deep Saguenay Fjord in Québec, where granite walls plunge to the dark water. It is known for the fjord's scenery, the white belugas at its mouth on the St. Lawrence and the cultural region of the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean.
- Saguenay Fjord
- Beluga whales
- Sainte-Rose-du-Nord
- Day4
Sept-Iles
An industrial port on the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence in Québec, Canada, gateway to the wild Côte-Nord. Boreal forest and salmon rivers surround it, with the Mingan Archipelago's eroded limestone monoliths offshore to the east.

Halifax
The largest city in Atlantic Canada, built around one of the world's great natural harbours in Nova Scotia. A star-shaped hilltop Citadel overlooks the waterfront boardwalk, and the city holds strong ties to the Titanic and the age of sail.

Germany's largest port, set on the Elbe with more bridges than Venice and Amsterdam combined. The brick warehouses of the Speicherstadt and the wave-roofed Elbphilharmonie line the water, while the Reeperbahn nightlife district lies in St. Pauli nearby.
