How many days do you have to visit?

If you have at least a week, I'd suggest driving up through Maine and into New Brunswick. Make sure you check out the Bay of Fundy national park which is home to the most active tides in the world. Go visit the Flower pots but make sure you make it back before the tides roll in.

PEI is worth visiting as well and thanks to the Confederation bridge, it can be done as a day trip if you find it a little boring. :)

Once you're done with New Brunswick and PEI, it's time to move onto Nova Scotia. Check out Halifax and then drive up to Cape Breton island for some beautiful views. Once you've soaked up the scenery, it's time to drop into Sydney and take the ferry to Newfoundland.

Newfoundland is a province which is vastly underrated. I've been all over Canada and I currently live an hour from the Canadian Rockies but I have to admit that the scenery in Gros Morne National park is amongst the best I've ever seen. The view of the fjords from the summit of Gros Morne is one of the most breathtaking scenes I have ever witnessed.

Once you've soaked up the scenery, you can return to Sydney and drive through NS and NB to visit Quebec City and Montreal. They're both worth visiting for their European flair and excellent food.

It may seem extreme driving all the way there from Sydney but you'll actually be heading southwest once you reach Quebec and you'll be able to cut into Vermont once you reach Montreal so it's not as bad as it sounds. (Vermont is less than 90 minutes south of Montreal.)

Toronto is a nice city but it's far from being an east coast town and is serviced by a countless number of airlines so you can visit anytime later.

Try Montreal and Quebec City, with their French flair you will find both cities completely different than Georgia. Check out either Frommers or Fodors online for more info.

Nova Scotia is very picturesque as is New-Brunswick which is why it is called the Picture province.
The island of Prince Edward Island is also very beautiful with the Anna of Green Gables museum and many many golf courses.
New-Brunswick is renowned for it's seafood and beaches as is PEI.
Nova Scotia has a very scenic region called Cap Breton
and like PEI has many golf courses.

Quebec is charming with it's 15th century forts and mansions found in Quebec City.

I hope this helps

I think going to Ontario would be nice. You have the city of Toronto which is fun to do all the touristy stuff and you can visit Niagra Falls.

If you are traveling by motor car I envy you what a trip. I used to live in Columbus and my folks lived in Mass. I would drive up to see them, I would have liked to had more time. I would have loved to have been able to stop around Washington DC there is a lot to see right there. I would also have liked to be able to stop in NY NY there are many great places there to shop, eat, and the theater, next on to Boston whether it is bunker Hill or old Ironsides both are great at to see then on to the coast of MAINE stopping along the coast and buying fresh lobster from the fishing boats in wonderful old fishing villages like Bar Harbor The ocean there is all part of the Gulf of Maine. If you can stop in Calais before crossing into Canada Try to catch the tide coming in. If you have children this is great for them as this tide is the highest tide in the world. The Bay of Fundy is what separates Nova Scotia and Maine. You would cross into St. Stephens N.B. It is a very pretty province and I would make my way to Nova Scotia. This is a trip I would take in a minute and enjoy every mile. depending on the time of the year and the amount of time you have there are a number of other places along the way that I would also suggest, like the boardwalk in Atlantic City N.J.,Phymouth MA, York Beach Maine, Kennebunk Port Maine, Fredericton N.B., Amherst N.S. Are you looking for a driver?

Quebec is best, it's got a europeen flair to it that you won't find anywhere else

I enjoyed Montreal & Quebec City the most when i was over there a few years ago,mainly because of the french angle i think.It was so different to the rest of Canada.
Do the "Maid of the Mist" boat trip at Niagara Falls whilst on your way to Quebec perhaps then come back around through New Brunswick & Nova Scotia.
Halifax was quite good and a trip up to Cape Breton Island was enjoyable because there is still a bit of Scottish influence to be found there
I'm sure theres many other enjoyable sites to see that i missed on my trip

When you cross into New Brunswick, enjoy the beautiful views and beaches of the Bay of Fundy, which has the highest tides in the world (52 foot rise and fall at the head of the Bay).Be sure to check out Saint John, with the Reversing Falls (the river flows both ways, really!) and a beautiful uptown heritage preservation area - wonderful old buildings and streetscapes. And no matter where you go in the Maritimes - the people are so friendly!
