Step Into the Past on an Historical Cruise
Waterways have played major roles in the expansion and development of cities the world over, providing them with important channels for transportation and generating the power needed to fuel factories. It goes without saying, then, that travelling along these waterways is one of the best ways to get a true feel of a region’s history. That’s why a number of major cruise lines offer historical cruises, giving you a once-in-a-lifetime view of the past.
Whether you select an intimate cruise along some of the world’s most famous rivers or hop aboard an ocean liner to take you from country to country, historical cruises offer some of the most up-close and personal encounters with major historical sites, from Venice, Italy, to Beijing, China, and Quebec, Canada. Most historical cruise tours dock at ports with renowned locations less than 30 minutes away from the ship.
What’s more, historical cruises cater to any and all history buffs. Are you intrigued by major maritime events around the world? Book passage on Crystal Cruises’ “Maritime: Past, Present, and Future” cruise. Want to know more about the Civil War? Glide up the Mississippi on American Cruise Lines’ American Civil War cruise.
