Delve deep into the history, harvests and landscapes of the Columbia and Snake rivers, while also indulging your senses with culinary splendors and world-class wines of the region, curated by the Executive Wine Editor of Food & Wine magazine. Travel as early explorers, settlers, and indigenous peoples did—by waterways that stretch far inland from the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy spectacular scenery including views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams. Tour museums and historic sites, taste local produce and meet celebrated winemakers, and actively explore by foot, kayak, Zodiac, and jet boat. Our top team—including naturalists, a historian, and a geologist—will illuminate all we see, and a food and wine expert will guide us through the region’s bounty. Take it all in from the unmatched perspective of our nimble, intimately scaled, small ship.
Lowest cabins starting at $4,317 per person plus airfare and taxes.
