What to Expect
The Grand Sightseeing Tour is the most extensive narrated boat tour offered in Duluth, Minnesota. Designed for visitors who want the full harbor experience, this cruise explores more of the Duluth-Superior harbor, the St. Louis River waterfront, industrial shipping areas, and the open waters of Lake Superior (weather permitting) than any of our shorter sightseeing options.
Along the way, guests experience live narration covering Duluth’s shipping industry, harbor history, ecology, Great Lakes commerce, famous landmarks, and the massive vessels that move through one of the busiest freshwater ports in the world. From ore docks and freighters to the iconic Aerial Lift Bridge and Lake Superior shoreline, the Grand Sightseeing Tour offers a deeper look at the city’s connection to the water.
This cruise is ideal for travelers looking for the complete Duluth sightseeing experience, Great Lakes enthusiasts, history lovers, photographers, and anyone wanting more time on the water. Spacious indoor seating and open-air decks make it easy to take in the views while exploring one of Minnesota’s most unique destinations from the best vantage point possible, the lake itself.
