Trip US to Canada
 
Hi Friends,

I am based in Texas, San Antonio and have one famous port nearby that is "Galveston". I am searching for a trip of 3 -4 days from Galveston to Canada or from anywhere in US to Canada in between 24th May to 31st May 2016.

If anybody knows it please reply us here. We will be so much grateful to you.

Thanks
Qas

If you post your question on the cruise board you might get answers.

You're asking to do something that's not possible. The trip from Galveston to Montreal is 3240 nautical miles or 6,000 Km and even on the fastest cruise ship with no stops, takes just over six-days.

Several companies operate cruises on the Great Lakes which stop at several ports such as Chicago, Mackinac, Sault Ste. Marie, Niagara and Toronto, however the shortest are 7-11 days and they don't begin sailing until May 31.

If you want to visit Canada in that short a period, you need to fly. Canada has 3.8 million sq mi (10 mil sq km) so you need to decide exactly where you want to go. The Maritimes? Montreal? Toronto? The Rockies? British Columbia?

I think port means airport...

San Antonio has its own airport. I think port means cruise ship port.

I don't think it does, garyt22, San Antonio's airport is more major than Galveston's, I think he means water port.

It's gotta be a troll post... Read it again...

Maybe, lol. He does say "trip" and not "cruise", so I have no idea what he wants.

Don't think troll - think someone whose native language is not English. And has probably not been in the US for long and has no idea of distances at all (perhaps a college student here for a year?)

(Troll is a possibility but I try to let the OP have one chance before deciding s/he is a troll.)

You need to fly to Canada from San Antonio.
Are you living in San Antonio or just visiting as a tourist?
