One of the most enchanting areas in this country is without question Chesapeake Bay, with its centuries of history, lovely shoreline and quaint towns like Oxford and St. Michaels, Maryland, Yorktown, Virginia, all set off by scenic lighthouses, schooners and wildlife refuges. It was no accident that James Michener set his best selling novel 'Chesapeake' in this visually splendid area. Of course, while some may disagree, we find Fall the most glorious time to explore the Chesapeake and we know of no finer way to do so then by coastal ship, aboard a 'pocket' liner carrying only 100 lucky guests, all in large outside cabins, in a casual and informal setting. By touring this area this way, you can glide into ports accessible only to small ships like Williamsburg and Yorktown, VA and Crisfield and Tangier Island on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Other highlights include historic St. Michaels and Annapolis and we offer all of this, in a leisurely week-long voyage, sailing round-trip from Baltimore aboard the splendid 'American Eagle' of American Cruise Lines.

But, what nicer way to begin an Autumn Vacation than with a few nights at America's most fabled resort, the opulent Greenbrier in West Virginia, a treat that awaits our guests for two nights before we board the American Eagle! And, in keeping with the nostalgic and restful manner of this holiday, we have connected the Greenbrier and the American Eagle in Baltimore with a classic private train, our very own 'Greenbrier Limited' on a stunningly beautiful day trip through New River Gorge, all at the perfect time of the year!

With a relaxed pace, America's grandest resort, the Greenbrier, a vintage private train and country club cruising through Chesapeake Bay, this one-time holiday, hosted by Barbara Abegglen is certain to sell out. With great style, comfort and visual splendor, there is only one thing missing, you. We invite you to join us.
