Atlantic Canada
St.Johns
Atlantic Canada is a region that takes in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince
Edward Island, Newfoundland and Labrador, a melting pot of cultures, heritage
and history. The region is home to the World’s largest tides in the Bay of Fundy,

seafood, stunning beaches and coastal drives will bring you here but the friendly
people and ambience will bring you back.

Newfoundland and Labrador
Adventure & Culture on Canada’s Eastern Edge. Newfoundland &
Labrador offers larger-than-life-adventure, wilderness and culture.
Hop on a boat to spot massive mountains of ice on the move in
Iceberg Alley, crane your neck to see some of the seabirds including
colourful puffins or commune with 20 whale species. Taste salt cod
cakes and pies made of tundra cloudberries. Dance a jig or reel to
fiery fiddling in the shoulder-to-shoulder pubs of the capital of
St. Johns. A multicultural past that includes Irish, English, French
and Aboriginals has spawned not only a quick-wit with a charming
Irish lilt but also a multitude of dialects and home-grown sayings
that make up a unique local dictionary.
Nova Scotia
Highest Tides, Coastal Drives and Freshest Seafood. Nova Scotia,
means New Scotland, but you will discover many cultures here.
Strong Celtic and Acadian heritages create your opportunity to tap
along with bagpipers, drummers and fiddlers. Around the province
your sense of humour is useful, local’s friendliness is legendary. Dive
into the pulse of Halifax’s thriving pub scene. Eat more fresh lobster
and scallops than you ever thought possible, pulled from the
Atlantic and the Bay of Fundy. Visit sites where the Titanic disaster
is remember as a local event. Create your own postcard photos of
colourful architecture in seaside villages like Lunenburg and Peggy’s
Cove.
New Brunswick
Bay of Fundy Adventures and Cultural Immersion Escapes.
Few places on earth have nature as awe-inspiring as New
Brunswick. Visit this special place and be rewarded with magnificent
ties, breathtaking coastline and endless adventure. Whale-watching
and Bay of Fundy kayaking are only two of the unique experiences
when you visit the highest tides in the world. Immerse yourself in
neighbourhood festivals, local cuisine, lighthouse tours and covered
bridges.
Toronto, Halifax and St. Johns
Enjoy Cosmopolitan Toronto along with St.Johns Newfoundland. St
John’s is the perfect combination of big-city luxury and traditional
small-town charm. It is the oldest and most easterly city in North
America, and has become a rare destination full of character and
charisma, with a contemporary, sophisticated edge. Pass the
colourful jellybean row houses wedged together, lining the sides of
steep hills and hidden alleyways.
Visit Quidi Vidi, the charming village-within-a-city, which embodies
the spirit of an old fishing outport. Hike up nearby Signal Hill
through the Battery, where tiny colourful wooden homes cling
valiantly to cliff -sides ravaged by ocean waves. The hill is home to
the unmistakable, iconic Cabot Tower, a castle-like structure built to
commemorate the 400th anniversary of John Cabot’s discovery of
Newfoundland. It was here that Marconi famously received the first
transatlantic wireless message in 1901.
Stretching from the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 –
the gateway into Canada for over one million immigrants – to
Casino Nova Scotia, you’ll pass unique shops, restaurants, and in the
warmer months, graceful tall ships. Take the ferry across the
harbour to the Dartmouth side which is filled with more locallyowned
cafes, restaurants, and bars. Considered one of the greatest
marine disasters in recorded history, the story of the Titanic begins
in Southampton on April 10, 1912, when the vessel left on her maiden
voyage. For some of those who lost their lives aboard the ill-fated
ship, Halifax is where the story ended.

Prince Edward Island

charm of an island that is an easy drive and brings the promise of
camera worthy pictures around every corner.
