✉️ Newsletter Follow-Up: Updated Links + Exclusive Offers

My Sunday newsletter had a few broken links in the section about my upcoming Windstar hosted sailing — sorry about that!

I wanted to resend the correct details and also share two additional private sales: one with Regent Seven Seas Cruises and another with AmaWaterways.

(This update is exclusive to my subscribers and will not be shared on social media.)

⚓ Windstar: Montréal → St. Pierre → Montréal | September 2026

Next September, I’ll be hosting a small group with Windstar Cruises on a beautiful round-trip sailing from Montréal to St. Pierre, exploring Canada’s East Coast before visiting France — yes, St. Pierre-et-Miquelon is technically part of France! 🇫🇷

This itinerary features no U.S. ports — just stunning scenery, local flavours, and Windstar’s signature blend of casual luxury and discovery. 🇨🇦✨

Discover What Makes Windstar Unique

In Partnership with the James Beard Foundation

Culinary Excellence at Sea

I don’t often get to invite clients to travel with me to my home province of Newfoundland — but this is that special chance. This itinerary is uniquely meaningful to me: it takes us along Canada’s Atlantic coast, right to the rugged cliffs and colourful harbours where I grew up. Every stop tells a story, and I’d love to share those stories with you.

And here’s the twist: while this cruise stays entirely in Canadian waters, it still whisks us to France. With a stop in St. Pierre & Miquelon, you’ll step into a slice of French culture without ever crossing the Atlantic. (A rare treat, since maritime laws normally require a U.S. port on Canadian sailings.)

We’ll be sailing on Windstar’s boutique-style Star Pride, where the atmosphere feels more like traveling with friends than traditional cruising. On board, you’ll enjoy:
✨ Small-ship intimacy & personalized service
✨ Destination-inspired gourmet dining
✨ Open decks perfect for whale watching
✨ A warm, welcoming atmosphere

🌊 Itinerary Highlights

Montreal – vibrant culture & historic Old Port

Saguenay – dramatic fjords carved by ice

Newfoundland – wild coastlines & fishing villages

St. Pierre & Miquelon – authentic French charm right next door

Golden autumn landscapes at every turn

💡 How the Private 2-for-1 Works
We back out AmaWaterways’ current retail discount (e.g., C$ 600 per person), remove port fees, divide by two, then re-add port fees (approximately C$ 300 per person) — producing true 2-for-1 pricing on the cruise fare, based on double occupancy.

This offer applies to new bookings only and is available for a limited time.
It does not include air, transfers, pre- or post-cruise land programs, or insurance.
As with all private sales, my professional cruise booking and management fee is charged upfront and non-refundable.
