UnCruise Adventures Destination Look Book

DAY 1 PORTLAND - EMBARKATION

DAY 5 PALOUSE RIVER

Wake up at the mouth of the Palouse River. At the confluence of the Palouse and Snake rivers, your crew has everything set with a beach party at Lyons Ferry State Park—go for a long or short paddle and a swim. Wind up the afternoon cruising one of the most scenic stretches of the Snake River. (BLD)

Arriving in Portland, an UnCruise representative escorts you to our hospitality suite where you can relax or explore the city. When it’s time to board, you’ll be welcomed with champagne, hors d’oeuvres, and views of the city—a perfect start to your adventure. (D) DAY 2 ASTORIA / FT CLATSOP Dock in charming, Victorian downtown Astoria, then you’re off to Ft. Clatsop, the winter fort of the 1804 -1806 Lewis and Clark Expedition. Check out the exhibits and follow trails to the replica fort. Hard chargers can take a 7-mile, one-way hike on the Fort to Sea Trail through forest, fields, and dunes. Whichever you opt for, everyone experiences Ft. Clatsop and beach walks. Back downtown, walk the waterfront trail, and/or visit the Astoria Column. Afterwards, set sail up river and see what delectable treats your chef and crew have in store for the evening—a nibble from a local harvest, a special pairing perhaps? (BLD) DAY 3 HOOD RIVER VALLEY Gateway to the gorge. Slip through the Bonneville Dam locks, then head behind the scenes at the visitor center. Take a walk on the wild side at Multnomah Falls—the tallest in the state. Snap a few photos before your next big adventure: a guided hike in the heart of the Columbia Gorge. Choose the low elevation option, or trek upward to a waterfall amidst towering trees. Back on board, your onboard sommelier has a “Best of Hood River Valley” wine tasting dialed in. All you have to do is take a seat in the lounge—you’re in good hands. (BLD)

DAY 6 COLUMBIA HILLS

Visit Columbia Hills State Park and Rowena Plateau on foot or, if weather permits, by skiff. Take a dip in a lazy section of the river, and let the sunshine dry you off after a swim. * Select dates later in the season include a guided wine and bike tour in Hood River (van tour optional) with farm to table lunch or wine tour & tasting at Maryhill winery. Swap stories with your shipmates over sunset cocktails and appetizers. (BLD) DAY 7 THE DALLES Disembark at the Dalles this morning ready for a day full of adventures. Depending on the time of the season and river levels, the adventurous might choose a Deschutes whitewater rafting adventure. Class II and III+ rapids come with names like Elevator and Surf City. Rafting guides provide the gear (including optional wetsuits) and expertise; your ship’s chef provides the picnic lunch. Other options may include winery tours, walks though the park, and museum tours. Cheers to adventure, wine, and your week aboard! Wrap it up cruising through the Columbia River Gorge and popping a few corks at the Farewell Dinner. (BLD) DAY 8 PORTLAND - DISEMBARK One last fresh scone or omelet.
