The visual impact of Canada in the fall is simply incomparable, and a sight that must be seen in one’s lifetime. This incredible no-fly voyage from Southampton features Canadian highlights such as Corner Brook, Québec City and Halifax, as well as unique stopovers in the ‘Big Apple’ – New York City itself.

Cunard’s magnificent, remastered flagship, Queen Mary 2 is uniquely suited to embark on this ultimate voyage and will ensure you have a holiday-of-a-lifetime – plus exclusive benefits are available when booking with ROL Cruise.
