Cruise West will trace the travels of explorers Lewis and Clark on the Columbia and Snake rivers with the seven-night "River Voyage of Discovery" from April through October. Sailing roundtrip from Portland, Ore., the cruise traces nearly 1,000 miles of the famed expedition, from the Columbia River Gorge to the engineering accomplishments of the locks and dams.
Excursions include a motorcoach tour to Multnomah Falls, the tallest falls in Oregon; a jet boat up Hells Canyon past 7,000-year-old Indian petroglyphs; wine tasting in Walla Walla; and an excursion to Astoria to visit the Lewis & Clark National Historic Park and the site of Fort Clatsop, where the explorers spent a hard winter by the Pacific Ocean.
