This is an excellent opportunity to learn about the impact the Great Lakes has had on US history and commerce. The staff is always happy to accommodate, and I strongly recommend the Chicago/Milwaukee to Toronto ten-day excursion. Laid back, generally relaxing days, the food was A+ and the service impeccable. I am a foodie, and the variety of food was impressive, although a few in our group complained about the soup... which was ridiculous, because the cioppino rivaled the best from the San Fran Bay area. The tours were pretty cool, if a couple a little pedestrian. Favorite tour was at the Sault St Marie Views & History... our curator, Paul, had encyclopedic knowledge and had real skin in the game, having lived with indigenous people for years. The Yander Camp boat tour was truly a highlight. We stayed in the AA cabins, though only 158 square feet, we had outside access, and our "valet" Fathur was fast and happy with all requests, large and small. EVERY employee on this boat was happy to be there, friendly and professional. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame was a highlight, too, and Mackinac island was a special treat. We loved this trip, and are exploring other opportunities with Victory itineraries probably next year! Bar service by Putu and Jerrick was exceptional (great memories on these guys) and the restaurant service of Kingsly, Renz, and Marlow was terrific and fast. We had a red wine spill and these guys attacked it like a NASCAR pit crew. Wendy was the shor excursion manager and nothing got her rattled (sometimes customers are grouchy). Managers Tyron, Preston, Andrew were great and accessible socially, and Captain Kerr was always about... Slainte wa. Music by guitarist Logan Reeves carried the house band. Yes, first class and highly recommended!
