Set out with a small group (maximum 14 privileged guests) to explore the vibrant city of Portland.
A panoramic drive through the charming Old Port district reveals quaint cobblestone streets and colorful 19th-century buildings.
Meander along the scenic Eastern Promenade, take in the working waterfront with lobster boats, colorful buoys, and the picturesque Calendar Islands. Portland's Victorian architecture and magnificent merchant mansions provide a glimpse of the city's prosperity.
Visit the iconic Portland Head Light — perhaps the most famous lighthouse in the country — commissioned by President George Washington in 1791. A 30-minute stop gives you time to capture unforgettable photos and savor the rugged coastal views. Take a Taste of Maine picnic sampler with Maine blueberries, maple syrup, and the famous Whoopie Pie for a sweet treat.
On the way back to Portland, view both the Spring Point Ledge and Bug Light lighthouses. Each offers a unique perspective of Portland's maritime heritage and natural beauty.
Watch for Fort Preble — one of the oldest forts in Casco Bay — and pause at a breathtaking viewpoint with a memorial dedicated to the Liberty Ships built during World War II. Reflect on the day's adventures while contemplating Portland's skyline and coastal scenery.
