The aptly named Steel City, home to the Steelers, Penguins and Pirates pro teams, is excited to welcome you. As you explore Pittsburgh, you'll see why it's earned a nickname as the "city of bridges," many of which span the three rivers that converge at The Point in downtown: the Allegheny and the Monongahela, which join to form the Ohio. Pittsburgh's rich history goes all the way back to the early 1700s, when George Washington surveyed the city and the mighty Fort Pitt and Fort Duquesne once occupied strategic land. Pittsburgh played a prominent role in the production of steel throughout its industrial years, but it has now charted a new, modern course focused on a sustainable future driven by technology, world class universities, and medicine.

Best Tours and Cruises of Pittsburgh for 2025-2026
Cruse ship was great. Fantastic food and service. Cruise itinary got changed so not what we expected, but not an major issue. Japan portion was great. Drivers/guides arranged by 80 Days were great. Hotels were mostly ok. Did not know that most hotels outside of major cities do not allow shoes to be worn in the hotel. again a minor inconvenience. Overall a great trip. Adventure Life communications were timely and much appreciated as far as changes/requests.

We were a group of three that initiated our research by independently searching for the best agency to help us in the somewhat complex experience of traveling to the Galapagos. We chose adventure life because they were the most responsive in the website provided the most comprehensive overview of the trip. Their reviews were also very good.
Adventure, life splits up its booking process in two parts. First Jeff, the booking agent helped us decide which experience best suited are interests. We chose a small 14 to 16 group sized yacht. Once the booking was made with Jeff, we were handed off to Coleene, who oversaw the complex process of assembling all of the necessary documents and making sure we had everything we needed to make the trip go smoothly. The adventure, life website, then becomes your personal place of reference for all things related to your trip from door to door. It’s a lot of information to assemble, especially for three travelers, but the website makes it easy and Colleen‘s gentle reminders kept us on track. In all, from the beginning, we had four months from the time we started our research till the time we departed. We felt that was, a good amount of preparation time and don’t think it would be wise to do it in less than four months. Mostly because I think you have more options with that amount of time. There were others on our trip that took six months and more from the time they started planning.
The trip itself was outstanding. We ended up on an excellent yacht (Galapagos Angel II) with a great group of guests that we were able to connect with and put together a really nice google photos album to share.
