Windstar Knows the Way to a Grand Adventure

From the 17th to 19th centuries, it was a rite of passage for young aristocrats to embark on a Grand Tour. This 35-to-85 day extended journey to the world’s great cities was a way to breathe life into their classical education, broadening their horizons and gifting them with knowledge and understanding that would enrich their own lives and their society. It’s the kind of travel you can only get from a yacht voyage on Windstar.

Multiple destinations. Multiple months. Private-yacht style.

Windstar's Grand Adventures offer extended journeys spanning multiple destinations over multiple months, each one highlighting a region unique in its cultural and natural heritage. Discover secret places that few travelers ever see. Take the time to get to know people who still live much as their ancestors did. Taste fine wines and cuisines perfected over generations. Admire works of art from Roman aqueducts to tie-dyed sarongs. And spend relaxing days on deserted islands, in Japanese gardens, or cruising stunning fjords and canals.
