Big, bold and beautiful

Big, bold and beautiful The Columbia Icefield, Alberta.

Canada and Alaska have long been destinations of discovery, from early explorers to today’s travellers in search of wilderness adventure.

You’ll quickly find that North America delivers big, bold and beautiful scenery at every turn. You can traverse the Rocky Mountains, Alaska’s Inside Passage and explore World Heritage-listed Glacier Bay. But these are just the tip of the iceberg in regions that are also rich in native wildlife, indigenous cultures and urban sophistication.

If you’re heading for Canada’s west, prepare to be awed by nature’s finest. From the azure waters of Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, to the mesmerising Canadian Rockies, this is a truly special part of the world.

Stays in the alpine resort of Banff and the iconic Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise place you at the heart of the Rockies. Then journey above and beyond, aboard the worldfamous Rocky Mountaineer. You’ll spend two days travelling in the comfort and style of a SilverLeaf service carriage with panoramic views that are the peak of perfection. Other rail journeys transport you through the pristine wilderness of Alaska’s Denali National Park or traverse the best of the USA. The convenience of rail travel enables you to explore regions you might not otherwise visit, as does journeying aboard a premium cruise ship and navigating remote coastlines. It is the only way to truly discover the natural wonder of Alaska’s Inside Passage.

A seven-night cruise with Holland America Line is the ideal opportunity to peel back the layers of Canada and Alaska’s west coast, exploring the natural splendour of Glacier Bay National Park, quaint fishing ports and First Nations settlements, and viewing a wealth of incredible wildlife.

By contrast, Canada’s east seems worlds apart. Cosmopolitan cities, French-inspired culture and historic charm characterise your discoveries in Montréal, Ottawa and Québec City. Further afield, you’ll witness the power of Niagara Falls up close, cruise the 1000 Islands of the St Lawrence Seaway and view black bears in Lac-Saint-Joseph.

HIDDEN CITIES MEET THE SEA

The Mediterranean’s sapphire seas will lure you in and convince you to stay a while. But beyond the azure waters lie tiny whitewashed villages nestled against sandy shores, marble-clad fortresses and winding chains of turquoise waterfalls – places loved by locals and untouched by most. Globus invites you to dive deep into the Mediterranean’s secluded seaside towns and medieval alleyways.

Follow us down sun-soaked streets to discover the places where cities, seas and cultures connect – places you won’t find on other tours or cruises. One of Globus’ most exciting new Undiscovered tours is the eight-day Greek Island Adventure. Be whisked away to the lesser-known isles of Greece (you’ll see no cruise ships here), where you get to slow down and savour the unparalleled views, unhurried villages and undeniable vibrancy of this special corner of the world.

Enjoy stops in Paros, often referred to as a ‘mini Mykonos’, famous for the white marble once mined here; Naxos, which will delight you with its natural beauty and rich and fertile farmland; and Heraklion, Crete, where you will witness the impressive Bronze Age settlement of Knossos.

Naxos, Greece.

All of this awaits you on this revealing tour of a different side of Greece.
