In a nutshell

There are thousands of ways to see New York. This one beats them all. Climb on board a helicopter and see the city from the only viewpoint that makes it truly magical: from the sky. The Statute of Liberty, the Empire State Building, the bridges, the skyline, the ocean… all in sequence, all below you. It's a brief, intense and entirely memorable experience.

Then you arrive in the areas that have a real atmosphere: Greenwich Village with its free-spirited vibe, Little Italy, which looks like a film set that refuses to retire, and the Financial District, which moves even faster than its inhabitants. In between, enjoy glimpses of Central Park, New York’s only green oasis.

The tour ends back in the streets of Manhattan, and this time you'll see it with a more trained eye: historic buildings, corners you recognize even if you’ve never been there, and that organized chaos that makes New York… simply New York.

The programme

Day 1 – New York → Niagara Falls: debut in the mists of winter
The journey begins amidst the dynamic vibe of New York , where a flight to Toronto takes you to a completely different setting. The quiet, snowy Canadian countryside accompanies you on the transfer to Niagara Falls, where winter lends a special magic to one of North America’s most iconic destinations.
The evening starts with a real bang: dinner in the legendary Skylon Tower, in the revolving restaurant with views over the falls and the illuminated city. The panorama at night, with the mist dancing over the reflections of the lights, is like a theater set. Your hotel, overlooking the waterfalls, makes for a arrival that promises plenty of excitement.

Day 2 – Niagara Falls: Two countries, one incredible spectacle

The day is entirely devoted to experiencing Niagara Falls in all its glory. The morning begins on the Canadian side, aboard the Hornblower, which takes you almost to the base of Horseshoe Falls: spray, mist, rainbows and the roar of millions of cubic meters of water plunging into the void. It's a close encounter with nature in its purest and most spectacular form.

Then, you'll cross the border into the United States, with a lunch of your choice at the Niagara Falls, New York, before heading down into the heart of the falls to the Cave of the Winds. Here, wooden walkways and ponchos accompany you on the short walk from Bridal Veil Falls, amidst the whirling wind, water and sounds that envelop all the senses.

Head back to the hotel in the late afternoon, with dinner included, followed by a relaxing evening after a day that will remain imprinted on your memory for a long time to come.

Day 3 – Arrival in Toronto: skyline, culture and heady heights
Leaving the waterfalls behind, the journey continues towards Toronto, Canada’s elegant cultural capital. A local expert will guide you through the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods, its most iconic landmarks and its many faces, encompassing history, multiculturalism and modern architecture.
The highlight? Lunch is at the CN Tower, suspended high above the city, where huge windows offer views that seem to go on forever. The afternoon is free for whatever you want to do: shopping, art, museums or simply strolling through the city center.

Enjoy dinner at the hotel, followed by another free evening to continue exploring this wonderful city.

Day 4 – Toronto → Fort Lauderdale: a stress-free return
Once you’ve checked out, Toronto's Pearson Airport welcomes you with a real perk: the opportunity to complete all the US customs procedures required to get back on board the ship. This means a stress-free flight and a smooth, quick arrival in Fort Lauderdale.
A private bus will be waiting to take you directly to the port. The ship welcomes you back, as you take memories of a surprising, powerful and unforgettable winter in Canada back home with you.
