Embrace your inner pioneer as you travel along the epic route forged by Lewis and Clark more than 200 years ago. View the lush landscapes of the Columbia River Gorge and be awed by the magnificent Multnomah Falls. Visit Mount St. Helens with our local expert and learn how the eruption has affected the landscape and surrounding communities. Enjoy a trip to wine country and stop at a local winery for a tasting of the area's finest varietals.

Along the way, be entertained by onboard musicians performing maritime songs, sea shanties, and selections from “The Great American Songbook.”

Join us, as we cruise from Paris through Normandy’s countryside, uncovering its many charms: the splendid Château and gardens of La Roche Guyon, the medieval capital of Rouen, Monet’s beloved home in Giverny.  The highlight of the cruise is, of course, the famed Normandy beaches.

 
Normandy has been the setting for many battles over the centuries, including the D-Day invasion of WWII, and the Normandy Beaches mean different things to different people, so you’ll have a rare choice to visit several of its historic sites, such as Utah and Omaha beaches, and Juno Beach. Experience a different side of Northern France’s history with a choice of visiting two worlds within the Majestic Palace of Versailles, either the secret apartments of Louis the XIV’s home, or the idyllic Queen Marie Antoinette’s hamlet.
