Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Your tour begins as you board your transportation for a scenic drive to Cavendish, a quaint town set on the north coast of Prince Edward Island. Cavendish was the hometown and setting for Lucy Maud Montgomery's beloved "Anne of Green Gables" books. The area is also famed for Cavendish Beach, whose white sand beaches and dunes cover nearly 25 miles of coast in Prince Edward Island National Park.

Your first stop is Green Gables National Historic Site, where you'll have an opportunity to explore the farmhouse, barns and extensive grounds, and make a purchase or two in the gift shop. Be sure to keep you camera on hand to capture a stunning photo or two. Next set off for a drive through Prince Edward Island National Park.

You'll marvel at the bluffs overlooking the white sand beaches and red cliffs, and perhaps catch sight of eagles nesting in the bluffs. Here, too, you'll capture breathtaking photos at virtually every turn. Your tour concludes with a relaxing drive back to the pier. Along the way, you'll spy the exquisite scenery, charming villages and pastoral farmland of Charlottetown.
