Approach Tours has long offered award-winning, land-based experiences, but the Canadian company now hits the high seas with signature cruise itineraries for the first time ever. Combining curated cruise itineraries with integrated pre- and post-cruise land experiences, Approach Tours’ three new signature cruises will venture to some of the world’s most sought-after destinations.

This cruise features a seven-day land tour exploring the beauty of Ecuador before spending seven days cruising the Napo River in the Amazon jungle. Compared to most trips available from other cruise companies, Approach Tours travelers will be able to spend longer in the Amazon, witnessing the area’s most biodiverse regions.
This seven-day sailing focuses on food experiences, complete with a pre- and post-tour in Lyon and Nice to let travelers continue to explore and soak in the region. Currently, no cruise operator sailing on the Rhône offers included stays in Lyon and Nice with an itinerary designed to continue the experience from the cruise.

No company on the market offers a trip complete with both Costa Rica and the Galápagos Islands in one adventure. Expect experiences with sloths, monkeys, seals, tortoises and countless birds.
Books are now open for the first cruise departures, slated to begin in early 2027.
