Un-Cruise Adventures Increases River Cruise Departures Along the Columbia, Snake and Willamette Rivers in 2015. Seattle-based small ship cruise line Un-Cruise Adventures adds more river cruise opportunities in the Pacific Northwest with the S.S. Legacy scheduled for 34 departures on the Columbia, Snake and Willamette Rivers from April-November 2015. The line is also offering a savings on fall 2014 river cruises. An adventure savings of $400/couple is offered for bookings made by June 20, 2014. The savings is applicable for river cruises departing August-November 2014. “The popularity of USA river cruising is growing,” said Captain Dan Blanchard, CEO. “You don’t have to travel to Europe for a scenic, inclusive river cruise when we have one right here in the United States on the historic Columbia, Snake and Willamette Rivers. We sail roundtrip Portland, Oregon for convenient air connections.” In 2015, the S.S. Legacy becomes Un-Cruise Adventures full-time river cruise boat sailing weeklong voyages roundtrip Portland, Oregon with tours included in every port. Highlights include a jet boat tour into Hells Canyon, Multnomah Falls, Bonneville Dam, private tasting at a Washington winery, Fort Walla Walla, Maryhill Museum, Columbia Gorge Discovery Center, Astoria’s Columbia River Maritime Museum, Fort Clatsop and transit of eight locks.

Travelers looking for that extra something special to spark their interest have more theme cruises to choose from in 2014/2015 with Un-Cruise Adventures' current lineup on its small ship cruises in Alaska, Mexico’s Sea of Cortés, Columbia & Snake Rivers and coastal Washington. Planned themes include photography, marine biology, Lewis & Clark, Washington craft beer, Washington wine, and music/entertainment.
