TOUR DAY 2: PROVINCETOWN

The morning will start with a full breakfast and a lecture on the journey and perils of the Mayflower as the Pilgrims sailed from Europe to Provincetown Harbor in Cape Cod.

We will then board our luxury motor coach that will transport our group to Boston Harbor where we will echo one small step of our Forefathers by boarding a chartered ferry* to sail to Provincetown. Once we arrive in Provincetown, we will visit the Pilgrim Monument and read the famous words of the Mayflower compact.

Our group will have the opportunity to discover the fascinating eclectic eateries of Provincetown on their own, and then we will depart for Harwich on the south side of Cape Cod where we together will enjoy a traditional lobster bake* and an evening lecture on the fortitude of the Pilgrims. Here we will gain insight on how the Pilgrims understood God's providential rule over the universe to explain everything that happened to them–and everything that blessed them. They did not attribute their survival in New England to their own fortitude–but to God.

• Teams deliver their Modern Day Mayflower Compact

TOUR DAY 3: PLYMOUTH

We will first enjoy Day 3 with a fresh farm-to-table breakfast at our hotel accompanied by a lecture on the society developed by the Pilgrim's during their first year here in the United States. By means of a luxury motor coach, we will head to Plymouth and to the traditional landing spot of the William Bradford, Plymouth Rock.

Then our group departs for Plimoth Plantation for an experiential journey into the lives and daily challenges that the early Pilgrims faced. We will enjoy a Pilgrim lunch at the 17th Century Village and then embark the Mayflower II, a precise replica of the original Mayflower.

On our return to the resort we will have time for reflection on the seashore of Cape Cod as we appreciate the sacrifices of the past and look forward to the sacrifices necessary to secure America's future. We will end the day by enjoying another incredible dinner.

TOUR DAY 4: BOSTON

While we all enjoy breakfast together, we will focus on what will be one of the highlights of our tour: a visit to the Forefathers Monument in Plymouth, MA. You will learn from Monumental's featured scholar on the Forefathers Monument, Dr. Marshall Foster, as you examine the evidence for the foundation of our country's heritage. After leaving Plymouth, we will enter the Historic District of Boston where you will have the opportunity to enjoy lunch on your own at one of the famous -- or infamous -- downtown Boston restaurants. We will then gather again at the Old South Meeting House for a stirring call to liberty by our featured speakers. The Old South Meeting House played a significant role in early American history through the bold actions of the Sons of Liberty at the Old South Meeting House. There, in 1773, Samuel Adams gave the signal for the "war whoops" that started the Boston Tea Party.

We will then continue on the Freedom Trail firstly to where the Boston Massacre occurred and then to Paul Revere's house. Next, we will stop by The Warren Tavern, the favorite Boston watering hole of Paul Revere, Benjamin Franklin and George Washington. Then will head straight to the site of the old Griffin's Wharf where the Boston Tea Party took place before finally ending at the USS Constitution, a great symbol of American fortitude.

We will enjoy an early dinner and then take part in a screening of Monumental at a downtown Boston theatre with Kirk Cameron, Marshall Foster, Gary DeMar and other VIP guests as we view the film and engage in a personal Q&A with the Monumental Team.

CRUISE DAY 2: BAR HARBOR, ME

For much of the year, sunlight touches the United States first at Cadillac Mountain on the Maine Coast. From the granite-slabbed summit, light tiptoes down across the rest of Mount Desert Isle, Acadia National Park, the town of Bar Harbor and then the rest of the country. The raw coastal scenery attracted Hudson River School painters in the 1840s, and their art in turn lured visitors to the area. Lots of them. Before you know it, Bar Harbor was a haven for the East Coast glittering class and bejeweled with grand mansions and immaculate gardens. Cruise visitors can walk the streets of town, relax on the Village Green, or climb Cadillac Mountain. You'll see that the grandeur abides.

CRUISE Day 4: SYDNEY, CANADA

A hundred thousand Gaelic welcomes await you in Nova Scotia, Latin for "New Scotland." At the northeast end of the province sits Cape Breton Island, whose wild and lovely topography includes Cape Breton Highlands National Park, Bras d'Or Lake, and miles of rugged coastline. Sydney is the gateway to it all. There are highland villages for cruise visitors to see, the scenic Cabot Trail to explore, golden inland seas to sail, and the Fortress of Louisbourg to inspect - where every barn, barracks and pipe and drum corps appears just as it did when King Louis' troops occupied the site in 1744.

CRUISE Day 8: MONTREAL, QUEBEC

Montreal is what would have happened if Paris had a child and the child grew up, sought its fortune, and made its mark on the world. The cultural capital of Canada, Montreal always seems to show up on "most livable city" lists and has been named a UNESCO City of Design. Cruise travelers can why along the historical streets of Old Montreal, Parc Jean-Drapeau (along the St. Lawrence River), and the cubist residential welter of Habitat 67. French is the first language of most residents, but the shopping and dining are international.

ARRIVE: 7:00AM (Disembarkation)
BREAKFAST IS INCLUDED
