Approach Tours, the small group tour company catering to Canadian seniors has launched a new cruise portfolio. The direct-to-consumer model builds on Approach’s “radically all-inclusive’ model of land tours that it has operated since 2019. 

“For too long, travellers have had to choose between convenience and meaningful experiences,” says Daniel Fequet, Founder of Approach Tours. “Our new cruise portfolio brings those together - combining small groups, deeper destination access, and a radically all-inclusive model that removes the friction from travel. We’ve also shaped these itineraries based on direct feedback from our customers about where they want to travel next, so we’re excited to now bring these destinations to market.” 

Three signature cruise itineraries across Amazon & Ecuador, France & The Rhône and Costa Rica & Galápagos Islands will be the first to launch, followed in the coming months by multi-river journeys along the Rhine, Main, and Danube, the Scottish Highlands and Antarctica. 

Packages include international and domestic flights, transfers, excursions, meals and free-flowing alcoholic beverages, gratuities, port fees, and onboard Wi-Fi, alongside guaranteed land tour extensions, as well as home-to-airport transfers.  

Bookings are now available for the inaugural itineraries, which will operate starting early 2027. For more information visit www.approachtours.com.
