Comprising one-fifth of the world's fresh surface water, the Great Lakes form one of North America's most important waterways. Great Lakes cruises might begin in cosmopolitan cities like Chicago or Toronto and explore dynamic American and Canadian ports that shaped the region.
Discover cultural treasures like Victorian Mackinac Island, where most motorized vehicles are forbidden and transportation is mainly by bike or horse-drawn carriage, and Sault Ste. Marie, a scenically diverse port with a history influenced by French fur traders and Native Americans.
Some shore excursions are included in the fare. Accommodations, meals and wine, beer and spirits are covered on the ship, along with onboard entertainment.
