This unusual voyage combines the historic cities of America's Eastern seaboard with the best of Central America. From the shores of historic Massachusetts we'll cruise down the continent's Atlantic shore, exploring the first cities of the thirteen original colonies. All were seaports that welcomed new colonists and served as starting points for merchant ships exporting fur and timber to Europe, and in time, ideas about independence and self-government. This is where you will find America's most historic towns, filled with the finest 17th-, 18th, and 19th-century architecture. Then, from Key West, continue to Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Panama—showcases for wonderful natural and manmade treasures. Discover national parks protecting rain forests, waterways that are home to a rich variety of wildlife, and the remarkable Maya sites. This voyage culminates with the exciting transit of the famous Panama Canal, one of the world's most important waterways.
