Scenic River Cruise
With
Tour of Historic Delaware City
|
|
Take a scenic river cruise aboard the MV Delafort. The vessel departs Delaware City
for a two-hour cruise along the Delaware River. The Delfort is a United States Coast Guard documented passenger ferry with upper and lower deck seating to provide the best visibility of the scenery along the way. The sights include Historic Fort Delaware on Pea Patch Island, Fort Dupont on the Delaware shoreline, the port and shoreline of Delaware City. Other sights depend on the river traffic and the charted course of the day. The captain chooses the course depending upon wind, current, tide and weather conditions to provide the most pleasant cruise possible.
Either before or after the cruise enjoy a delicious meal at the Olde Canal Inn,
steps from the Delafort dock in Delaware City. The chef at the Olde Canal Inn is of local renown. The meal at the Olde Canal Inn may be either Luncheon or Dinner. Multiple menus are available with the buffets being the most popular.
Next take a tour of Historic Delaware City aboard the City's New Tram. The
walking tour of Delaware City can now be enjoyed without the walking. Board the City Tram at the front door of the Olde Canal Inn and enjoy a 45-minute tour of the historic homes and sights in Delaware's largest historic district. The tour ends where it began, at the front door of the Olde Canal Inn. Then take some time to browse the shops and visit the Port of History Center in Delaware City. |
