“A Touch of Class by SignaTours”
Sail 250 - Norfolk, Virginia
The year 2026 marks the 250th Anniversary of our Nation’s founding in 1776 and for this milestone occasion, a fleet of the world’s most magnificent international tall ships and military ships, in an epic peacetime gathering, will sail into the port of Virginia as part of Sail250® America. For ten days in June 2026, 10,000 officers, cadets, and crews of more than 60 ships from 20 nations will engage with residents and visitors across the Chesapeake Bay region in events and programs symbolic of the bonds of international goodwill.
Once arriving in Norfolk, board the Victory Rover. This ideal sightseeing boat features an enclosed first deck and open-air covered top deck. Your excellent captain will narrate and entertain you during this two-hour morning cruise. Sail past all the tall ships docked in the Norfolk harbor and see the mighty Naval fleet that calls Norfolk home. See destroyers, submarines, and other vessels while taking in the sights of the harbor. Walk a short distance for your included lunch at Stripers Waterside, followed by an afternoon visiting many of the tall ships that will have their “doors” open for you to visit! Arriving on Monday – should not be as crowded. This is a once-in-a-generation event planned as part of the worldwide commemoration of this significant milestone in our nation’s history.
