Full description

From your window seat you will soar over the 1000 Islands International Bridge, circle past Boldt Castle on Heart Island and Singer Castle on Dark Island, and trace the winding channels that boat cruises take hours to cover. With a personal headset and narration from your pilot, it is the most spectacular way to understand why this region is called the Garden of the Great Spirit.
