Tour Overview

 
AUGUST 16 – 24, 2021
 
Welcome to Portland, Maine! Portland is a hub for foodies, techies, artists, seamen (and women) and outdoor adventurers. Discover Portland – its history, culinary scene and the culture of the port over three days. Then, we’re off for a three-day cruise on the Schooner Stephen Taber following Maine’s stunning coastline, inlets and islands. The Stephen Taber is a 150-year old historic Maine Windjammer and is a symbol of America’s proud sailing heritage. Captain Noah will show us the thrill, camaraderie and the scenery of our nation’s finest windjammer cruising grounds. The chef will show us the thrill of her incredible cooking aboard the Stephen Taber – from wood-fired stoves – all made from scratch! Sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery. It’s a life experience you won’t forget!
