Princess Cruises Showcases First-Ever Summer Colonial Heritage Voyages

For the first time in its history, Princess Cruises will offer a series of Colonial Heritage itineraries featuring Yorktown, Va., part of Virginia’s Historic Triangle, along with stops at charming and history-rich Charleston, S.C., Boston and Halifax aboard Island Princess sailing round-trip from New York next summer.

Debuting in 2024, Princess’ new summer Colonial Heritage itineraries from New York City are highlighted by the cruise industry’s first-ever stops in Yorktown, a historically significant and picturesque town that serves as the gateway to Colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in the Americas.   The voyages are a perfect lead up to Sestercentennial celebrations marking the 250th birthday of the United States making this a must-see opportunity for history buffs.  Charleston, Boston and Halifax are also included in Island Princess’ 10- and 11-day itineraries which take place in June 2024.
