1000 Islands Canada (No passports required, Departing from the US

Overview
Join us for a Unique Tour of Islands not seen on other US tours!
Marvel at the natural beauty of these less inhabited islands with tranquil bays, marshes, and scenic shorelines as we discover birds and wildlife that inhabit the region. The Natives knew this beautiful collection of islands as Manitoana or the “Garden of the Great Spirit”.

Meander among Canadian National Parks and narrow channels of the Lake Fleet and Admiralty Island groups as our naturalist guide shares the history of how the war of 1812 shaped the border between the United States and Canada and how the islands of this unique archipelago were named.

Saint Lawrence River
Enjoy an intimate boat tour without stopping through U.S. and Canadian waters on the St. Lawrence River as we take you among the islands near Clayton, NY and Gananoque, a town in the Leeds and Grenville area of Ontario, Canada. This Tour circumnavigates Grindstone Island, the fourth largest of the 1000 Islands, 2nd largest American Island, and the largest island not connected by bridge or ferry system to either mainland. Lost in time, Grindstone is home to one of the few natural occurring beaches in the islands, 2 New York State Parks, over 14 miles of unpaved roads, a private vineyard, four active beef farms, historic but now abandoned farmlands, and New York State's last operating one-room school house.

We really enjoyed this tour. The captain was very attentive to the task at hand. Our guide, Dennis, was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun. Boldt Castle was worth the trip! I wish we had a bit more time there.

What a grand time we had! Not just a back and forth to Boldt Castle but a real tour of the 1000 river system area (and yes, the Castle was great). Worth every penny and then some! The captain (sorry, I just called him Captain the whole time) and our guide Liam were an awesome team.

We had a fantastic time and we loved our tour. Captain Bryan and tour guide Bryan were knowledgeable, hospitable and entertaining. The tour guide gave us a wealth of interesting information. The captain navigated to avoid the choppy waters. The tour took us through Canadian waters which I thought was really cool. There are so many beautiful islands and homes to see on this tour. The picnic lunches are made at a small sandwich shop, almost like a food truck, right on the boat tour property. You pick your pre-ordered lunch up from a refrigerator on your way down to the boat dock. Lunch was delicious! All in all, a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend. The only thing I would say is that the waters can get very choppy, so it’s a good idea to take motion sickness medication before your tour.
