This unique, 90-minute, voyage of discovery explores the major battles of the Civil War's “Mobile Campaign” from the rivers along which its major actions took place! This narrated cruise offers guests a unique waterside view of the battlefields of Blakeley and Spanish Fort as well as a rare opportunity to glimpse the sites of Fort Huger and Tracy. The combined-forces campaign for Mobile, including its notable Union and Confederate navy participation, will be discussed along the rivers where it all unfolded in the spring of 1865.
