Cruising the inland waterways of the world is a unique
experience, incomparable to any other form of travel.
The combination of convenience
and comfort along with the variety of scenery, culture, the fulfillment
of one’s mind along with one’s senses is like combining
oil and vinegar, sugar and salt, love and remembrance-it does not
get better than this!
Thanks to their smaller size and low draft, river vessels
can go where no other land transportation can take
you. You can sail into the heartlands of various countries
where some attractions can only be reached by water
(Russia). You can choose to cruise and explore one
country (China) or you can combine several in the span
of a week (Europe). And if your heart desires true
adventure, some of our ships will let you explore less
visited areas such as the Balkans or take you literally
where only few tourists have gone before (Burma and
Laos). But no matter what destination or ship you choose,
all of them will afford you a similar level of safety,
comfort and convenience.
No Packing and Unpacking! Unlike a motor coach tour,
once you board your floating hotel, you unpack only once
then sit back and relax as your ship sails from one attraction
to the next. This allows you to be as active as you want
while at the same time offering you the sanctuary of
your cabin when you need a break!
Instead
of adjusting to various levels of hotels and methods
of
transportation, you can relax in the comfort
of your cabin while your ship takes you from one exciting
place to the next. Your cabin will be similar to your
room at home... comfortable beds, work table, vanity
mirror, air conditioning, spacious closet space, full
feature private bathrooms and the one thing your home
does not have scenery that changes, minute by every
passing minute…
Yet,
even though afloat, you lose nothing of the pampering
of the best
land locked hotels. Your rooms are made up
while you are exploring the local sights. Your beds are
turned down at night and a chocolate appears magically
on your feather pillow. You eat glorious meals while
watching the passing scenery through big picture windows… almost
like a movie enfolding before your eyes
You sit at your table set with china, crystal and candlelight.
You choose world class meals , without worrying about
the bill. You taste various cuisines of the places you
are visiting without having to make a reservation… and
the maitre d’ greets you by your name!
And almost
every single day your “floating hotel” delivers
you to new and wondrous sights. Thousand year old cities
where cobblestone streets beg you to explore. Century
old castles that speak of times gone by. Monuments made
by man from days of yesteryear and today. And all around
you, the wonders of nature… quiet flowing waters….deep
green forests…mountains…cliffs… reminding
you daily why life is good. And all of this is included
in your price!
More than you
realize! Think about your last visit to a major amusement
park... How much was your hotel per
night? For a week? A cold, bland room with a parking
lot view, where even a movie cost you $10! How much was
your food bill for 3 mediocre meals a day consisting
of runny eggs, burgers, pizza and a hot dog? How much
was your entrance fee for the privilege of standing in
line while you waited an hour to go on each ride? Add
it all up and then compare it to the features included
in all of our cruises; accommodations, all meals, sightseeing
and entertainment. River cruises are a great value for
money! So, go ahead… take the plunge... and book
yourself the trip of a lifetime!
