I’m excited to announce a brand‑new hosted group sailing for 2027: an intimate 10‑night small‑ship journey through all five Great Lakes, from Chicago to Toronto. This is a rare opportunity to explore the Great Lakes in comfort with a maximum of just 190 guests on board.
This journey is ideal for past river and ocean cruisers who want something different without flying overseas. Enjoy inclusive dining, drinks, and curated shore excursions while we explore charming towns, engineering marvels, and iconic sights like Mackinac Island and Niagara Falls together.
I’ll be personally hosting this departure, which sails May 24 – June 3, 2027, with a pre‑cruise night in Chicago and a 9‑night cruise to Toronto. I’ve reserved just 12 cabins for River and Vine Travel guests, so space is very limited.
- All 5 Great Lakes on one itinerary
- Small ship, only about 190 guests
- All‑inclusive meals, drinks, and shore excursions
- Hosted by Robert from River and Vine Travel
- Only 12 cabins allocated to our group
This hosted sailing is ideal for travelers who enjoy river or small‑ship ocean cruises and want something different without flying overseas. We’ll explore iconic destinations such as Mackinac Island, the Soo Locks, and Detroit. We will also explore Niagara Falls, and vibrant Chicago and Toronto. All while unpacking once and enjoying inclusive dining, drinks, and curated shore excursions. As your host, I’ll be there to help you choose the right cabin, answer questions before we sail, and make sure you feel supported every step of the way. If you are interested in joining this group or would like more information, please contact me or visit the River and Vine Travel website to learn more about how I work with hosted groups.
