On board Scenic Eclipse, you'll meet the Captain, the crew and your butler. Settle into your spacious suite and join your fellow guests at the Sky Bar for a glass of Champagne before setting sail for your unforgettable journey towards New York City.

Perched atop the headland is the century-old Chateau Frontenac, now home to the luxurious Fairmont Chateau Frontenac hotel, alongside Notre-Dame de Québec Cathedral. Nearby, the 425-metre Dufferin Terrace boardwalk attracts street entertainers and offers sweeping views over the St Lawrence River and Lower Town.

Day 4: Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada

Charlottetown is Prince Edward Island’s vibrant capital – a small city with an island lifestyle. Prince Edward Island played a significant role in the confederation of Canada but its original occupants, the Mi’kmaq, lived here for 12,000 years. One of its biggest claims to fame is being the hometown of Lucy Maud Montgomery, who penned the classic novel Anne of Green Gables. It’s also a huge fishing and seafood destination with over 1000 kilometres of coastline and white-sand beaches. Explore the city's well-preserved history and architectural treasures, its bustling harbour and picturesque waterfront boardwalk.

Day 5: Pictou, Nova Scotia, Canada > Canso Canal Transit

The Port of Pictou has a rich heritage as the Birthplace of New Scotland and as one of the province’s largest lobster fisheries – it even hosts an annual lobster carnival. Spend the morning exploring the buzzing waterfront and museums where you can learn about its Scottish heritage and fishing industry.

Back on board, enjoy the panoramic views of rugged coastlines and historic lighthouses as we sail through Canso Canal. Curl up in a cabana on Deck 10 with a drink whilst you admire the ever-changing scenery or soak it up from the Observation Lounge.

Day 6: Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

Spend the day in Halifax, Nova Scotia's dynamic capital. This historic port city has a Downtown district boasting a four-kilometre harbourside boardwalk brimming with restaurants, shops, museums, beer gardens and public art. Argyle Street is another happening area with live theatres and pubs that spill out on to the streets.

For a change of pace, Halifax Public Gardens occupy an entire block, complete with manicured lawns and floral displays. The hilltop fortress Halifax Citadel National Historic Site overlooks the city; a cannon has been fired here every day at noon since 1857 (except on Christmas Day).

After a day of exploring indulge in an ESPA treatment# at the expansive 550sqm Senses Spa, where signature therapies and restorative rituals await.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 7: Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada

A former rum-running and ship-building town, Lunenburg is arguably Canada’s most beautiful town. This World Heritage-listed site is a picturesque village with architectural wonders such as the 19th-century Victorian-style Lunenburg Academy, the pink Wedding Cake House, and the 18th-century St. John’s Anglican Church. The town is known for being one of the British Empire’s first Protestant settlements in Nova Scotia. It’s a walkable city, so enjoy a relaxing day exploring its brightly painted houses, sample locally caught seafood and find its many galleries and artisan studios.

Day 8: Bar Harbor, Maine, USA

Discover the coastal beauty of Bar Harbor. This is the gateway to Acadia National Park, which protects the highest rocky headlands along the Atlantic Coast, as well as a landscape of ocean cliffs and rocky beaches, glacier-formed lakes and boreal forest. The town was a favourite summer getaway for the rich and famous in the 19th-century, but many of its luxury homes on ‘Millionaires Row’ were destroyed by fire in 1947. Despite this, the town is filled with charm, with colourful clapboard storefronts and a variety of restaurants that serve lobster and wild blueberry-inspired dishes (Maine’s official fruit).

Back on board visit the open bridge on Deck 7 to meet the Captain and navigational team, gaining first-hand insight into Scenic Eclipse’s state-of-the-art technology and one of the best vantage points on board.

Day 9: Provincetown, Massachusetts, USA

Follow the creative footsteps of Jackson Pollock in his spiritual hometown of Provincetown, Massachusetts. Since the 1940s, this coastal haven has lured artists to its shores – it is, after all, a place that celebrates freedom of expression and individuality. Indulge in a trolley tour for an exclusive experience of 'P-town,' explore galleries, and savour culinary delights at renowned restaurants.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 10: Oak Bluff Harbor, Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, USA

With a population of just over 4,000, the small town of Oak Bluffs is a beacon of inclusivity and diversity. It’s located on the island of Martha's Vineyard – which ironically has no operating vineyards – the setting of Dorothy West's Harlem Renaissance novel ‘The Wedding’. The town comprises charming 19th-century pastel-coloured gingerbread cottages, an ocean park, the oldest continually operating carousel in the United States, and enchanting views of Nantucket Sound.

Tonight perhaps meet new friends at Sushi @ Koko’s for dinner. Enjoy entertainment in the state-of-the-art theatre and unwind with a nightcap at the Scenic Lounge Bar.
