It is an exciting and interesting way to learn more about the wines from the Pacific Northwest United States, and it is with all the relaxation and pampering that cruising can bring.

No matter your level of wine knowledge, this is the perfect cruise for you!  You won't need a passport.  You won't have to fly to the other side of the world to enjoy some fine wine and spectacular ever-changing scenery.

American Cruise Lines is offering a new "themed" Wine Cruise, that is scheduled to depart October 20, 2012.  It is 8 days in duration, that begins at Clarkston, Washington, and concludes in Portland, Oregon, with many stops in between.

From the high desert of the inland empire to the endless sweep of the Pacific Ocean, the Columbia and Snake rivers follow an epic course, flowing through a rich tapestry of ever-changing landscapes, lush wildlife habitat and fascinating human endeavors. Scenes of natural beauty and human ingenuity unfold one by one. Local experts, Native American performers and perfectly planned shore excursions heighten each experience.

You cruise will begin with an intro to the wines of the region, learn the basics of wine tasting, and explore the relationship between food and wine.  You'll  put your skills to the test at wine tastings, hosted both on the ship and ashore. You'll enjoy tours through some of the most prestigious wineries along the Columbia and Snake Rivers and discover the intricate process of wine making.

American Cruise Lines offers a refreshingly relaxing atmosphere on board their small ships. The intimate ambience is perfect for both camaraderie and relaxation. Each evening before dinner, passengers are invited to mingle and share their day's adventures over complimentary cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. The atmosphere for dining is informal - seating is unassigned and dress is resort casual. After dinner, guest speakers bring local history, nauture, and culture alive with their knowledge and passion for American heritage.
