In 2026, the United States of America will celebrate its 250th birthday — and if you need to brush up on your U.S. history before the big event arrives, Princess Cruises has you covered. Throughout 2025, Princess Cruises offers 10 Historic America themed cruises, with itineraries setting sail from New York City and stopping at some of the most iconic spots on the East Coast.

 

“Visiting our nation’s capital, nearby historic cities and landmarks always ranks high on travelers’ lists of places to visit in their lifetime,” said Terry Thornton, CCO, Princess Cruises. “We make traveling to historic America easy, educational and memorable with our knowledgeable and inspiring tour guides sharing the incredible stories of our country’s settlers, leaders, landmarks and historic sites.”

 

The cruise isn’t just a cruise, though. It includes an overland tour throughout part of the Mid-Atlantic before the actual cruise departs onboard Enchanted Princess. Itineraries take place over just over two weeks and include stops in Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Newport, Rhode Island; Boston, Massachusetts; Portland, Maine; and more. The first cruise departs Aug. 16, 2025, and rates start at $4,529 per person.

What to Expect if You’ve Never Been to a Buc-ee’s

Buc-ee’s is an institution in many destinations — particularly Texas — around the southern United States, recognizable via its large red and yellow logo sporting a beaver. Don’t make the mistake of just assuming Buc-ee’s is any old gas station, though. Like Wawa and Sheetz in the Northeast and Midwest, Buc-ee’s is so much more. If you’ve never been, here’s what to expect during your first visit.
