The best way to travel through Maine and the Maritimes is by car. You’ll enjoy the freedom to go where you want, when you want – to explore the history, scenery and all the activities.

Taking The CAT cuts your time on the road in half – or better! That’s less time, less miles, less wear-and-tear on your car – and on your family!
You don’t have to wrestle with your luggage. Your gear stays right in the car from the moment you drive aboard to the moment you clear Customs. You can even bring the family pooch along; many lodging establishments in Maine and the Maritimes are pet friendly. The CAT has on-board kennel facilities.
Bringing your car aboard The CAT also gives you dramatic vacation flexibility. Tour the coast and the mountains of Maine. Explore both coasts of Mainland Nova Scotia, then cross the Canso Causeway to Cape Breton, where you’ll enjoy the dramatic landscape and Celtic and Acadian cultures.
You can even tour Prince Edward Island by crossing from Caribou, NS aboard the ships of Northumberland Ferries, or travel across the Bay of Fundy to New Brunswick aboard the Princess of Acadia.
There are special round-trip and advance-purchased fares, and AAA or CAA members qualify for special discounts!
