Ports of Call

NEW YORK:  New York was once the capital of America, but that illustrious title seems insignificant compared to the modern role of the Big Apple. Fashion, finance and fine arts - it all happens here.

NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND:
  In this natty yachting town it is not the Joneses one must keep up with, but the Vanderbilts, Astors and Morgans. They called their summer homes by the sea "cottages," but a stroll along Cliff Walk reveals some of the grandest mansions in America - the Breakers, Rosecliff, Beechwood, and Doris Duke's Rough Point Estate. In town, shop lively Bowen's Wharf, taste lobster fresh off the boats. Sample shore excursions: Grand Mansions of Newport; Doris Duke's Rough Point Estate; Colonial Newport Walking Tour.

GLOUCESTER, MASSACHUSSETTS
:  In a 21st-century fairy tale, the little port town of Gloucester, Massachusetts, met the glamour of Hollywood when its eastern harbor lighthouse captured a starring role in the movie, The Perfect Storm. But with practical disregard for such frivolous fame, the people of Gloucester still look to fishing for their fortune. Since 1623, the town's rugged coastline and sandy coves have enticed visitors to its shores and with Boston only 30 miles away, if the nearby whale-watching and nature trail opportunities don't summon you, 400 years of American history will.

BAR HARBOR, MAINE:  Once the exclusive summer resort of America's fabulously wealthy, today Bar Harbor is an artists' enclave and gateway to the rich natural beauty of Acadia National Park, much of which was donated by the Rockefeller family. Watch for white-tail deer and other wildlife and enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride through the park. Attend an authentic "Downeast" lobster bake. Sample shore excursions: Acadia National Park & Carriage Ride; Coastal Sea Kayaking; The Ultimate Island Experience - A Private Luncheon at Frenchman's Bay.

HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA:  For ocean scenery at its best, nothing rivals Nova Scotia's south shore. Here find craggy coastlines, fabled Peggy's Cove, and the striking German village of Lunenburg, so meticulously restored it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Back in Halifax the ramparts of the Citadel and a museum commemorating the Titanic await your inspection.

SYDNEY, CANADA:  A hundred thousand Gaelic welcomes await you in Nova Scotia, Latin for "New Scotland." There are highland villages to visit, the scenic Cabot Trail to explore, golden inland seas to sail and the Fortress of Louisbourg to inspect - where every barn, barracks and pipe and drum corps appears just as it did when King Louis' troops occupied the site in 1744. Sample shore excursions: The Bras d'Or Lakes Grand Tour; Fortress of Louisbourg; Black Gold - Cape Breton Mine Experience.

CHARLOTTETOWN, PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND:  Prince Edward Island may be Canada s smallest province, but it's big on history and attractions. It is here that the famous Conference of 1864 was held, which resulted in the creation of the Canadian confederacy. Learn all about it on a walking tour of Charlottetown, the provincial capital. Or cast your vote for shopping, a lobster luncheon at Dalvay-by-the-Sea or a tour of the picturesque farm that inspired Anne of Green Gables.

SAGUENAY, CANADA:  Gorgeous, green and Gallic, this charming village is your gateway to some of the most stunning scenery in North America: majestic fjords, dramatic rocky capes and picturesque hamlets are all here. So are artisans of every ilk, from glassblowers to Angora goat farmers. Sample shore excursions: Saguenay Village Highlights; Saguenay National Park by Zodiac (or Seaplane); The Craftsman Road.

SAGUENAY FJORD:  Quebec City marks the start of Saguenay Fjord. This 200-mile natural canal brings saltwater from the Atlantic Ocean inland and creates a beautiful environment for waterfront living for the communities of the St. Lawrence Seaway. You'll be thankful you upgraded to a verandah suite as the scenic vistas of Saguenay Fjord drift by: pretty little hamlets; cliffs that rise abruptly 1,500 feet from the sea; humpback, minke and white beluga whales.

QUEBEC CITY:
  A tree-lined "Champs-Elysées," buttery croissants, the lilt of French, a grand château on the river. Is this Canada, or is it France? It is both - a bastion of French culture in North America where impassioned Québécois hold dear their history, language and culture. Nearby: Montmorency Falls, higher than Niagara. Sample shore excursions: Québec City Walking Tour with Tea at the Château Frontenac; St. Lawrence Grand Tour & Lunch.
