Princess Charlotte and Prince George Will Join Parents on Canada Tour

Princess Charlotte is set to join her parents on a trip to Canada.

 

The 15-month-old royal and her three-year-old royal brother will join Prince William and his wife Duchess of Cambridge on the tour of North America next month, which will be her first trip overseas since she was born in May last year.

And it is believed the family vacation will be tailored to suit the children’s needs.

A source close to the family told US Weekly: “There will be parts of the itinerary designed to include the children.

“The climate will be comfortable and a lot of outdoor activities will be part of the trip … plenty of outdoor moments and visits to endangered places of nature.”

The family of four as well as their team, including babysitter Maria, hair stylist Amanda Cook Tucker, will accompany the family on their trip.

The group will board a first class commercial flight to the city of Vancouver at the end of next month where they will reside for one week.

Although this is Charlotte’s first experience travelling abroad, it is not for George who accompanied his parents on their tour of Australia and New Zealand in 2014.

And the family are “delighted” to be visiting Canada again, after they travelled to the country five years ago.

A source explained: “The Duke and Duchess are delighted to be returning to Canada. They hold very happy memories from their visit in 2011 — their first overseas tour as a married couple. They are really looking forward to seeing other parts of this beautiful country and having the opportunity to meet many more Canadians along the way.”

The family will be welcomed by the Governor General of Canada David Johnston and his wife, who have revealed they are also “delighted” to greet the royals.

He said: “[My wife] Sharon and I will be delighted to welcome Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to Canada. Their royal tour will take them to the beautiful province of British Columbia and the scenic territory of Yukon. Once again, our true Canadian pride and spirit will shine and be at the very heart of this visit so they can feel at home.”
