Settle in for a lovely and comprehensive adventure that takes in Prince Rupert's scenic highlights by motorcoach and visits two of its cultural museums. Your two-hour experience begins as you gaze out on panoramic vistas of the city and stop for photos at several viewpoints en route to the colorful downtown core, with its wonderfully diverse collection of architecture and the City Hall. Continue on to the waterfront district, where you'll visit the Kwinitsa Railway Station Museum to learn about the building of the cross-Canada Grand Trunk Pacific Railway through fascinating displays and exhibits. Next, step back in time when you peruse the countless artifacts at the Museum of Northern British Columbia. Located in a Northwest coastal longhouse, this well-curated collection is dedicated to the First Nations and early settlers. From here it is a short ride back to port, or you may choose to stay in town and return to the ship independently.

Special Notes:

Motorized wheelchairs cannot be accommodated. Collapsible, non-motorized wheelchairs are allowed. Participants must be able to (dis)embark the coach with minimal assistance. Surfaces are level and paved or carpeted.
