Experiences include local storytelling and folk art; a Mi’kmaq welcome at Miawpukek First Nation; time in Gros Morne National Park; a taste of the fine wine and cuisine of North America’s last French colony, the island of Saint-Pierre; and the Viking history of L’Anse aux Meadows on the Great Northern Peninsula.
While cruising the coastline of Newfoundland, guests visit picturesque villages while learning about Viking archaeology, an important part of the region’s history experienced by walking through reconstructed Viking habitations at L’Anse aux Meadows, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the only authenticated Norse settlement in North America. Other days bring additional explorations, including learning about Basque whaling history or the native Mi’kmaw culture, with several hikes along the scenic coastlines and remote landscapes.

Canada’s youngest province is unlike anywhere else on Earth, and photo opportunities are frequent. The wildlife and scenery are breathtaking, Canadian hospitality is inspiring, and the Newfoundland & Labrador landscape is filled with unexpected and surprising sights.
Canadian destinations on the itinerary include Gros Morne, where the Earth’s mantle protrudes through the crust; Red Bay, where Basque whalers once plied their trade; L’Anse aux Meadows, where Vikings established a base; Miawpukek First Nation, where a thriving community offers a warm welcome; and the French island of Saint-Pierre, which provides a taste of Europe.
Detailed 2024 and 2025 itineraries and prices are available at Adventure Canada.
