North America’s Enchanting Seaway: From the Great Lakes to the St. Lawrence River

In the waning days of summer, as the air becomes crisp and the skies turn deep blue, a special beauty envelops the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River.  On this splendid voyage through Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, and the St. Lawrence River, set sail from Detroit and call at historic Cleveland. Here, visit the Great Lakes Science Center and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or the Museum of Art and Botanical Garden. Next, pass through the seven locks of the Welland Canal into Lake Ontario and thrill to the thundering of Niagara Falls. As you traverse through the resplendent Thousand Islands, take part in lectures and discussions with onboard experts about the natural and cultural history of the places you visit. Finally, navigate the historic St. Lawrence River en route to Montreal and Quebec City.

Small Ship Cruising Value & Pricing

In an era of ever larger cruise ships, some carrying more than 5,000 passengers, a few small ships continue to meet the needs of travelers who seek intimate cultural and educational voyages away from the bustle of commercial cruises. These travelers are willing to pay a premium, because they understand that small ships – where operating costs are shared by fewer passengers and where there are no revenue-producing casinos, bars, shops, or optional extras – are considerably more expensive to operate, on a per person basis, than big ships. A small ship will cost us more, they reason, but the richness of the experience is well worth it. 

We offer the best possible program at a fair price. Our rates include fine accommodations, all excursions and special shore events, superb meals, soft drinks throughout the cruise, and wine with meals. Our cruise directors and field staff are well known for their keen knowledge and professionalism, and the ship’s crew are of the highest caliber.  Our guests find themselves among kindred spirits, and the distinguished study leaders who accompany them provide a first-class learning experience. This, we believe, is true value.
