Hop aboard a vintage-style trolley for a panoramic drive through Prince Rupert -- a coastal gem where the rugged beauty of the Pacific Northwest meets the bustling marine activity of the northern port.
With the distinction of being the only municipality nestled in the beauty and majesty of the Great Bear Rainforest, Prince Rupert boasts a history of boom, bust and rebuilding. Its tumultuous economy echoes the story of many isolated coastal cities. Your trolley navigates the neighborhoods of this City of Rainbows.
Along the way, learn about the local 10,000-year-old Tsimshian Nation and Sm'algyax-speaking people. Continue through the scenic winding streets and past Service Park, where some of the town's original residences remain intact.
Hidden away in a scenic area, serene Seal Cove invites you to experience a taste of Mediterranean-style meze (tapas). The chef welcomes you to this gastronomic experience. Learn about the herb called zaatar, the right way to eat manousheh, toppings such as halloumi and labneh, and the offerings on the menu for today's lunch. With simplicity and rich traditions, the experience here is all about the food -- hearty, healthy, tasty, and generous.
Return to the ship via trolley or walk back via the 40-minute waterfront Rushbrook Trail.
Please note: Some dietary restrictions can be accommodated; please advise the onboard shore excursions team upon boarding the ship.
