Join Crystal’s experiential journeys through North America and Canada
From the golden sweep of California's Big Sur to the dramatic, lighthouse-dotted coast of Atlantic Canada, cruising North America and Canada delivers cinematic fall scenery, layered cultural heritage, and boundless marine life.
The Pacific Coast is everything you may have imagined and more. From its Gold Rush history – which left mining towns throughout California and Alaska – to its omnipresent vineyards, Hollywood dreams, white-sanded beaches, and forest-shrouded mountains, the entire West Coast is a vision to behold.
Eastward bound, the Atlantic Coast has another tale to tell. From its groundbreaking seafaring history and the Freedom Trail to its towering cliffs, plunging fjords, and intense tidal waves, this side of the continent has an altogether distinct vibe. From Maine to New York City to Nova Scotia, there is a palpable spirit of fierce independence and a rugged coastline to match.
Whether you choose clam chowder or lobster rolls, the Golden Gate Bridge or the Brooklyn Bridge, Los Angeles cinematics or New York theatrics, each coast offers its own unique history and cultural charm that you won’t soon forget.

Leave Vancouver behind for Victoria, the capital of British Columbia, known as the garden city for its abundant floral displays. Sail to Astoria, Oregon, a historic forested city set on the Columbia River. Arrive in San Francisco to be greeted by the beautiful Golden Gate Bridge arching over the glittering bay. Visit chic Santa Catalina Island for oceanside cocktails before ending your voyage in laidback San Diego.
Leave New York City behind for Newport, Rhode Island, admiring its Gilded Age mansions before sailing to Portland, Maine, for a culinary walking tour. Continue to Bar Harbor National Park before visiting Canada’s Bay of Fundy and watching marine wildlife in Saint John, New Brunswick. Delve into maritime history in Halifax, Nova Scotia, before returning to the dynamic streets of NYC.
Relish New York City’s autumnal hues before crossing to Canada, taking in Saint John’s sweeping tides. Revel in Halifax and Sydney’s maritime heritage and local seafood, touching on lively Charlottetown and glimpsing Mi'gmaq culture in Gaspé. Admire the rugged coastlines of Les-Îles-de-la-Madeleine and Baie-Comeau before whale watching in Saguenay’s fjord and arriving in Québec City.
Depart Québec City to visit Sept-Îles and Havre St. Pierre, illuminated by a kaleidoscope of fall colors. In Gaspé, get to know Mi’gmaq culture before heading to Les-Îles-de-la-Madeleine’s red sandstone cliffs. Discover the French archipelago of Saint Pierre et Miquelon, then cross to historical Sydney, Nova Scotia. Sail to Baie-Comeau’s lighthouse-dotted shoreline, returning to Québec City.
Stroll Québec City’s cobbled streets, then sail to Saguenay, where whales may breach the fjord. Revel in Baie-Comeau’s colorful fall foliage and Sept-Îles’ pristine lakes before visiting Gaspé, home to Mi'gmaq culture. Enjoy Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine’s beaches, then head to Sydney and Halifax for maritime history and fresh lobster. Arrive in New York City to explore its dazzling skyscrapers.
Departing in September and October, most of Crystal's North America and Canada cruises are timed for the autumnal turning of leaves. The region’s natural beauty is set aglow with shades of burnt orange, crimson, and amber. With the iconic landmarks such as San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge and Eastern Canada’s Bay of Fundy in the background, these coastal landscapes are picture perfect.
Established in 1608, UNESCO-listed Québec City is a step back in time. Stroll through Petit Champlain’s narrow cobbled streets, taking in the undeniable French flair of Place Royale and Vieux- Québec. In the center of the Old Town lie the fortified Citadelle of Québec and the palatial, hill-top Fairmont Le Château Frontenac – the most photographed hotel in the world.
Home to more than eight million people, New York City’s bustling streets pulsate with artistic expression, cultural diversity, and irrepressible energy. Dine at one of its many Michelin-starred restaurants, catch a Broadway show, attend a poetry slam, pause amid Central Park’s greenery, or simply grab a slice of NY pizza and watch the world rush by.
Cradled between majestic, snow-capped mountains and the Pacific, Vancouver’s coastal location makes it a truly singular metropolis. Repeatedly named one of the best cities to live, Vancouver brims with top-rated museums, diverse gastronomic and mixologist-forward restaurants, and unmatched shopping opportunities. When it comes to outdoor activities, the boundless options include whale watching with marine biologists, trekking through Pacific Spirit Natural Park, and snowshoeing on Cypress Mountain.
From the snow-capped mountains of Mount Shasta to the white-sanded beaches of San Diego, the 800-mile-long state of California embodies diversity. From mountains to sand dunes, deserts, forests, and lakes, its terrain seems to shapeshift as rapidly as its culture. Hollywood’s cinematic glitz and glamor is contrasted by the colorful hills of storied San Francisco, with neighboring Monterey offering a laid-back coastal vibe – complete with legendary clam chowder and marine life views.
Experience the cultural flavors of North America and Canada firsthand by indulging your way through its gastronomic highlights. Take a culinary walking tour of Old Québec, sip your way through Scottish heritage with a whisky-tasting experience in Saint John, sample smoked herring and local cheeses on the colorful Les-Îles-de-la-Madeleine Archipelago, or savor Portland, Maine’s lobster rolls and oysters.
