During her visits, she travelled on board of cars prepared for this purpose, as here in 1959 during a visit which lasted several months, from June 18th to August 1st, through all Canada.

 

It was on board this limousine with a transparent roof known as "BUBBLE TOP" that the Queen travelled through several Canadian cities.

 

She was loaded onto a plane shortly before her departure and transported to the next city.

She went to other states of the Commonwealth, like here in Kenya, on March 26, 1972, in the presence of President Jomo KENYATTA, on board a Mercedes 600 PULLMANN Landaulet.
