A Path Well Traveled.....
Cruise & Tour specializes in escorted travel by land and sea to worldwide destinations. Founded in 1975, the company designs, arranges and hosts a wide variety of first class and deluxe group cruises and tours. The company offers travelers of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to travel with ease, comfort and security to places they would often not feel comfortable visiting on their own.

Whether it's a first cruise to the Caribbean or a safari adventure of a lifetime, as a Cruise & Tour traveler you'll appreciate the careful planning, attention to detail and value that each of our escorted vacations offers. You'll enjoy the company of congenial fellow travelers, some of whom have traveled with us a dozen or more times.
