THE GREAT LAKES<br />
THE LARGEST FRESHWATER ECOSYSTEM ON EARTH, over 750 miles across and with 10,000<br />
miles of coastline, America’s Great Lakes are a wonderland of diverse natural environments, iconic<br />
wildlife and some of the most fascinating cities in North America.<br />
EMBARK ON AN ADVENTURE IN THIS UNDER-EXPLORED REGION. Visit world-famous Niagara<br />
Falls—actually a group of three falls—and hear the majestic roar that has been immortalised<br />
in countless poems and literature. Or explore Sleeping Bear Dunes Lakeshore, a tranquil park<br />
featuring immense sand dunes for climbing, forest trails for hiking, as well as bird watching and<br />
wildlife viewing. At the same time, city sophistication is never too far away. Toronto, Canada’s<br />
largest and most diverse city, is renowned for its multicultural dining experiences, theatre, art<br />
galleries and museums, while Chicago, one of America’s great cities, is a melting pot of arts and<br />
culture, great restaurants and an unforgettable skyline.<br />
THIS IS A LAND THAT BEGS FOR EXPLORATION —whether by kayak gliding silently past<br />
industrious otters or pink Precambrian rock islands—or by a visit to one of Canada’s most<br />
prominent museums to marvel at paintings inspired by these shores.<br />
