Cruise Description From Montreal to New York, PONANT proposes an exceptional cruise aboard Le Lyrial for a 14-day itinerary discovering the immense preserved spaces and cultural treasures of Canada and the American East Coast.

Throughout your journey, you will benefit from an excursion included per person per port of call, to choose from a selection offered by PONANT. During this cruise, explore the exceptional Old Quebec district, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site; fall under the spell of the pretty and lively little streets of the Beacon Hill district and wander around the aisles of the famous Quincy Market in Boston; or be charmed by the Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé National Park, renowned for the abundance of its unique flora and fauna, in particular for its enormous colony of gannets, from Percé. The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments (to discover the full range of excursions, go to the itinerary tab).

Departing from Montreal, famous for its energy and cultural vibrancy, and Quebec, capital of Canada’s Beautiful Province, located on the St Lawrence estuary and founded by Samuel de Champlain in 1608. Do not miss this charming and lively city where the historic neighbourhood of Old Quebec, with its ramparts and fortifications, is listed as World Heritage by UNESCO.

At the mouth of Saguenay River, you will reach Tadoussac. This National Park is also an unmissable site for whale watching as the mammals gather to feed before winter.

Percé awaits you further on, on the Gaspé Peninsula. It is one of Quebec’s most beautiful villages and borders a national park with incredible natural, historic and geological heritage. The majestic Percé Rock and Bonaventure fortress are among the unmissable sites of this destination.

Lying in the middle of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, The Magdalen Islands offer an unusual variety of landscapes, from the white of the sandy beaches to the red of the sculpted cliff faces. You will be captivated not only by the natural setting but by the hospitality of the inhabitants.

Le Lyrial will sail along the coastline of Nova Scotia whose towns and villages are full of history and undeniable character. Fall in love with Halifax, a cultural crossroads and provincial capital surrounded by sumptuous nature. The rocky coast of western Nova Scotia will emerge slowly before you. During an all-new port of call in Yarmouth, immerse yourself in Acadian culture and discover their traditions and ancestral customs through encounters with the population.

Your journey will continue towards Boston, considered as the birthplace of the United States because of the key role it played during the American Revolution.

At the end of the Cape Cod peninsula, the East Coast atmosphere is reminiscent of the chic and discreet charm of the Western Coast of France, with beautiful houses, sea spray and gentle way of life.

As a grand finale, Le Lyrial will enter the port of New York as the majestic Statue of Liberty reveals itself from the sea: an unforgettable port of call in a city that is second to none.
