From the St. Lawrence Seaway to Chicago: A Voyage Through the Great Inland Seas

June 22 - July 3, 2013

One of the pleasures of this voyage is going ashore to explore the pristine wildlife habitat of Presque Isle, as well as the charming historic small towns along the shores of the lakes. Saugatuck and Charlevoix are classic American small towns, with fine examples of 19th-century architecture, and a host of shops, art galleries and restaurants lining their quaint streets. And to visit to Mackinac Island is to step back in time to the Victorian era—gingerbread trim on the front porches, lush cottage gardens, and travel by horse-drawn carriage. * Alternative dates available. Please call 1-888-484-8785 for details.
