Many Mississippi River cruises begin or end in the state of Minnesota which features a number of delightful riverside stops. Lake Superior borders the northeastern part of the state, and the port city of Duluth is a gateway to the expansive Great Lakes. The state has earned the nickname "Land of 10,000 Lakes" (but the real number is closer to 12,000 actually!). Get to know the cultural highlights of Minnesota when you visit the "Twin Cities" - Minneapolis and Saint Paul (the capital). Contact us when you're ready to start planning your Mississippi River or Great Lakes cruise.
