U.S. River Cruises
A river cruising experience that’s uniquely American—rich in history, wrapped in comfort, and delivered with genuine warmth. Ideal for travelers who want to explore America’s waterways without the bustle of mega-ships or the long journey required for international travel.
Ship Experience:
Modern, Spacious Vessels: Ships offering sleek, contemporary design with roomy staterooms—many featuring private balconies.
Intimate Atmosphere: With fewer than 200 passengers per ship, the vibe is relaxed and personal. You’ll never feel lost in a crowd.
Top-Notch Service: Staff are attentive, friendly, and often go above and beyond to make guests feel at home. Think small-town hospitality with five-star polish.
Destinations & Itineraries
Mississippi River Cruises: From New Orleans to St. Paul, these cruises explore the soul of the South and the charm of the Midwest. Expect stops in historic towns like Natchez, Vicksburg, and Memphis.
Columbia & Snake Rivers: For those craving dramatic landscapes and Lewis & Clark lore, the Pacific Northwest itineraries are a scenic dream.
New England & Chesapeake Bay: Coastal cruises offer a blend of maritime history, lobster feasts, and fall foliage that feels like stepping into a Norman Rockwell painting.
Dining & Entertainment
Locally Inspired Cuisine: Menus reflect regional flavors—Cajun dishes in Louisiana, fresh salmon in Oregon, and clam chowder in New England.
Enrichment Programs: Daily lectures, live music, and storytelling sessions bring local history and culture to life. It’s not just sightseeing—it’s soul-sighting.
Pace & Vibe
Relaxed & Reflective: These cruises aren’t about rushing from port to port. They’re about savoring the journey, connecting with fellow travelers, and soaking in the scenery.
Perfect for Mature Travelers: While all ages are welcome, the experience is especially tailored for those who appreciate slower travel, meaningful excursions, and a touch of luxury.
Train Travel
Discover the Elegance and Ease of Rail Travel
Rail travel offers a unique blend of comfort, convenience, and scenic beauty that other forms of transportation simply can't match. Whether you're planning a leisurely getaway, a business trip, or a grand tour across countries, trains provide an experience that’s as enjoyable as the destination itself.
Comfort and Space
Trains offer generous legroom, wide seats, and the freedom to move around. You can stretch out, enjoy a meal in the dining car, or simply relax and watch the landscape unfold from panoramic windows — no traffic, no turbulence.
Scenic Journeys
One of the true joys of rail travel is the view. From the rolling countryside of England to the snow-capped Alps of Switzerland or the dramatic coastlines of Italy, rail lines often traverse some of the most beautiful terrain — offering a front-row seat to landscapes you’d miss from 30,000 feet.
Efficiency and Accessibility
Train stations are typically located in the heart of the city, eliminating long airport transfers and security queues. With high-speed rail options in Europe and Asia, travel times can rival — and often beat — flying when accounting for door-to-door time.
Eco-Friendly Travel
Rail is also one of the most sustainable ways to travel. With lower carbon emissions than planes or cars, choosing a train means you're making an environmentally responsible choice without sacrificing quality or convenience.
Tailored to Your Preferences
Whether you're seeking a luxurious sleeper cabin on an overnight journey, a scenic day trip through wine country, or a first-class seat on a high-speed connection between capital cities, we can tailor the rail experience to suit your style and schedule.
Groups
Group travel can be a fantastic way to explore new places, share experiences, and create lasting memories with friends, family and perhaps new friends.
Maybe your group travel is a family getaway, a friends’ getaway, an activity your club wants to do, an association meeting or even a business meeting.
Group travel is an adventure where all the boring admin and planning stuff is removed from the equation. This just leaves you simply enjoying the ride and having the best time!
Being able to put all that stress and time into the hands of
Grand Escapes Travel is worth its weight in gold.
