Day by day itinerary

Day 1
UK to New York City

Depart the UK today and fly to New York City. On arrival, you will be transferred to your hotel for a one-night stay.

Stay: New York accommodation

Day 2
New York City & embark on Silversea cruise

Enjoy a leisurely morning exploring New York. Packed as it is with landmarks recognised the world over, world-class museums and an infectious energy, you will not be short of ways to fill your time here. In the afternoon, you will be transferred to the port to board your luxury Silversea cruise ship. Dinner will be served onboard tonight and your ship will depart in the evening.

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B D

Day 3
Newport, Rhode Island

Newport is one of America’s most historic cities and is therefore awash with fascinating cultural heritage, along with striking seascapes and delectable seafood waiting to be discovered. It's also home to the oldest library in the country, spectacular summer houses and the fortress city of Fort Adams. Visit wild beaches, wineries and breweries, or simply take in the fresh ocean air and call of the seabirds on a 3.5-mile coastal walk across rugged cliffs. The walk becomes a little more challenging as it progresses, but you can always follow a shorter, easier version if you prefer.

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 4
Boston, Massachusetts

Few American cities brim with a sense of history quite like Boston, where skyscrapers somehow don’t seem out of place with cobbled streets. If you travel during the autumn months, the foliage explodes with red, orange, and purple. You can also find a moment of calm in the Boston Public Garden. Exploring Boston feels akin to strolling through an open-air museum in parts, with the Freedom Trail linking the city’s many significant historic sites such as the Boston Massacre Site and Bunker Hill. Fenway Park is home to the famous Red Sox, a must-visit for any fans of sport. Be sure to take a moment to sample some delicious seafood, particularly the buttery clam chowder, in the Seaport District. 

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 5
Portland, Maine

Lighthouses and lobsters have always epitomised Portland. It's a fantastic place to flock to the famous beaches in warm months, but autumn is when Portland really shines. The gorgeous colour palette of the fall foliage here is a truly magnificent sight to behold. There’s more to Portland than great beaches and pretty woodlands, though, including elegant Victorian architecture, a thriving arts scene and excellent cuisine. There is also plenty of history to be learned, from its founding in 1632 and its emergence as a thriving port town to its important role in the freedom trail that helped African Americans escape slavery in the south.

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 6
Day at sea

Enjoy a day at sea to take advantage of all there is to offer onboard the Silver Shadow. Relax at the spa, break a sweat in the gym, catch up on some reading or engage in a spot of whale-watching. Of course, you will also be treated by a full spread of culinary delights onboard. However you choose to spend your time, you will be well looked after with Silversea’s first-class hospitality. 

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 7
Halifax, Nova Scotia

Now that you've crossed over into Canada, your first next stop is Halifax, a city known for its music, outdoor events and its seafaring history. Nova Scotia’s capital revolves around its bustling harbour, where jet skis and heritage ships share the water. The city also offers a wonderful selection of pubs and restaurants. Be sure to try seared scallops and juicy mussels, both of which are local specialities. The shorefront boardwalk is perfect for a stroll. The Canadian Museum of Immigration offers an detailed insight into Halifax’s history as a gateway into Canada for over a million migrants. The Maritime Museum, meanwhile, explores the city’s ocean-faring history, as well as the role it played in the aftermath of the sinking of the Titanic. Peggy’s Cove lighthouse is nearby, one of the most iconic in Canada. 

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 8
Day at sea

Enjoy another day onboard the Silver Shadow at sea as you continue your voyage north along the Canadian coast.

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 9
Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island

Charlottetown is known as the birthplace of Canada because it hosted a conference leading to the formation of the Canadian Confederation. There is a small-town charm about it, with pretty timber lighthouses and a welcoming, easy-going ambience. The Confederation Centre of the Arts pays tribute to Charlottetown’s role in the formation of the plans to create the Dominion of Canada. Charlottetown is a haven for rich, juicy seafood — particularly lobster and mussel pots —and the Culinary Institute of Canada’s students mean the area is simmering with cooking talent. A thriving craft brewery scene completes the picture.

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 10
Day at sea

Enjoy another day at sea to unwind and indulge in some uninterrupted time to yourself. Be sure to savour the dining experiences onboard. 

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 11
Saguenay, Quebec

The Saguenay fjord lies at the intersection of three sprawling national parks amidst some of North America’s most impressive scenery. It's also a hotspot for whale watching, to be sure to keep a close eye out. You might also be interested to learn about Saguenay’s heritage with a tour of the pulp mill, dating back to the 1800s, or visit the Petite Maison Blanche, a humble wooden house which somehow survived the major floods of 1947. Alternatively, venture to the Saguenay Fjord National Park on a kayaking tour, a hike, a bike ride or a sightseeing cruise to view the area's natural beauty and abundant wildlife, ranging from moose and wolves to orcas, belugas, and blue whales. Adventurers can scale rock faces, or for something a little calmer, retreat to a secluded beach. 

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 12
Quebec City

Quebec City is one of North America’s oldest cities and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The French flavour is just as strong as it is in Montreal, with street-side cafes and characterful cobbled neighbourhoods. The city’s storied old quarter is full of the French storybook feel, with a funicular linking the upper and lower towns. The famous Château Frontenac watches over the city, and a wooden boardwalk at Dufferin Terrace offers stunning views. Wander uneven cobbled streets to Place Royale, where the city was founded, and between the bistros and boutiques of the Quartier Petit Champlain. Sample international food and deliciously greasy poutine, or taste local cheeses at the Marché du Vieux-Port indoor market. Of course, don't miss the chance to savour Canada’s fabled maple syrup, revered like wine in these parts. 

Stay: Silver Shadow

Meals: B L D

Day 13
Disembark in Montreal & return to UK

Your ship will dock in Montreal this morning. Upon disembarkation, you will be privately transferred to the airport for your onward travel back to the UK. Alternatively, if you would prefer to extend your stay in Montreal, feel free to speak to one of our specialists who will gladly make those arrangements for you.
