The fall foliage season greatly enhances the natural beauty found on this voyage. Explore the stunning coasts of Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, where tiny fishing villages nestle between mountain and sea, and search for northern right whales in the Bay of Fundy. Visit historic Campobello, the home where FDR, Jr. was born, and walk the nature trails at Block Island. Along the way, we meet with two very special National Geographic guests. The Chairman of National Geographic, Gil Grosvenor, guides us on Cape Breton Island as we tour a museum dedicated to his great grandfather, Alexander Graham Bell. And, at the Mystic Aquarium, we have a private visit to National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Dr. Bob Ballard’s Institute for Exploration, a pioneer in the emerging fields of deep-sea archaeology and deep-sea geology.
