Top Reasons to Cruise to Canada & New England with Princess

  • Dive Deeper into History with a Cruisetour: Options for guests wishing to spend more time exploring historic cities and monuments include two in-depth cruisetours, combining a scheduled 2027 cruise with multiple days on land, including:
  • Historic America Cruisetour – with seven nights on land guests visit U.S. Capital Washington D.C., Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello estate, Colonial Williamsburg, Independence Hall in Philadelphia and the Gettysburg Battlefield.
  • The Maple Explorer Cruisetour – brings guests to beautiful Niagara Falls; exciting cities like the capital of Canada, Ottawa, and French-flavoured Montréal with guided tours of the Canadian Museum of Civilization, dazzling cathedrals and the historic 19th century Rideau Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
  • Foliage at its Finest: Nature’s most brilliant show unfolds along the New England coastline with front-row seats to the season’s fiery hues – seen from onboard or ashore in charming towns like Charlottetown and Halifax.
  • History that Comes Alive: Guests can walk Boston’s Freedom Trail, stand in the shadow of Québec’s Château Frontenac and explore pivotal places in American and Canadian history with itineraries that highlight these heritage-rich ports for those who crave stories of the past.
  • Tastes of the Region: Taste buds soar with New England seafood and Canadian specialties – from fresh-caught lobster to maple-inspired treats and cocktails. Onboard themed dining adds even more local flavour, from lobster rolls to Boston Cream Pie martinis.
  • Iconic Arrivals, Majestic Departures: Princess brings unforgettable moments like sailing out of Manhattan with views of the Statue of Liberty, drifting past the iconic landmarks of Québec’s Château Frontenac, or gliding through the Saguenay Fjord.
  • Local Charm at Every Port: Experience the peaceful rhythm of life in coastal villages and lighthouses, artisan shops and warm welcomes with stops in Charlottetown, Halifax and Portland. Plus, UNESCO World Heritage access including Old Québec, Grand-Pré, and Gros Morne National Park.
