Intriguing short Canadian getaways
River cruises allow you to rethink a quick trip to Canada, forgoing car hire for restful waves instead. Explore a few cities and historic sites, relaxing and enjoying hearty meals aboard a well-appointed vessel as you sail the magnificent St. Lawrence Seaway to various ports of call.
Creative short journeys
Surprise that special someone with a few days of shipboard romance or whisk family or close friends away to view Canadian wildlife, delve into Colonial history, and explore some of our oldest cities. Canada Your Way is pleased to present a portfolio of possible short itineraries for river cruising with the St. Lawrence River Cruise Line on a Canadian river and its scenic tributaries. The Seaway itself is so grand that sometimes you can’t see the opposite shoreline. There are six canals on the Seaway and 19 locks, comprising a spectacular lift system. Each lock is 233.5 metres long, filling with just over 90 million litres of water in less than 10 minutes. Cities and attractions encountered along the way include Québec City, Montréal, Ottawa, Brockville, Upper Canada Village, and the Thousand Islands.
Experienced cruise line, historic route
The St. Lawrence Cruise Line has built a solid reputation for excellent service over nearly three decades in the industry. The Canadian Empress, a replica of vessels used along the Seaway in bygone days, offers calm-water cruising as it hugs the shoreline where the waters are less choppy. Dedicated and friendly staff provide a range of onboard activities for the 108-foot-long ship’s 66 passengers. Cabins are cozy, atmosphere mostly informal, and service attentive.
