On an elegant small ship, join us for an experience you can’t find anywhere else, discovering pristine natural beauty and learning the colorful stories of the people who’ve sailed and worked these waterways. Our Great Lakes cruises include round-trip airfare from major hubs, lodgings, most meals, and all gratuities. If you’re looking for a less active option, we also offer an easy-paced version of this voyage.
A university of the world, Not-for-Profit Road Scholar has been leading global educational adventures for adults for over 40 years.
Our programs are all-inclusive educational adventures, not superficial tours. When you explore with us, you’ll have a deep, thought-provoking experience delivered by faculty experts on site.
Here are reviews from people who have taken our Great Lakes Cruise:
“We very much enjoyed this cruise. The ship was very comfortable and the instructors were excellent. This program was a wonderful way to experience the many facets of the Great Lakes and to learn much about this part of the U.S. and Canada.”
“This cruise was wonderful. The food was delicious; the crew very pleasant and helpful; the lectures interesting and educational; and the musical entertainment enjoyable. The highlights of the trip for me were Mackinac Island and Niagara Falls. I definitely recommend this trip as a way to experience and learn about this part of our country!”
