As we head into the second half of 2021 it is becoming apparent that travel is making a pretty strong come back. Pent up demand combined with limited itineraries have caused many of our standard venues and sailings to sell out or be close to full capacity for 2022. Fortunately, we have group reservations booked well into 2023 however they are also filling fast as we release our itineraries. If any of our many adventures appeal to you, we highly recommend you get a deposit in as soon as possible. We hate having to wave goodbye to you as we set out on our next adventure. Why not join us and be part of the fun! 

In compliance with COVID-19 travel restrictions we managed to make two international adventures this year: Riviera Maya, Mexico and our most recent visit to Jamaica. We found both venues to be safe, fun and well worth doing. Of course, vaccines are a must, and you’ll have the extra step of pre-testing protocols whenever you travel across a border, but most venues have systems in place making the process as painless as possible. A huge benefit we have enjoyed is the reduced number of travelers and the gratitude of the people who rely on our tourist dollars. We have never felt so welcome in our many years of adventures as we have during the past few months.

With respect to domestic travel, we made it to the big island of Hawaii earlier this year and will be returning to Maui in July. Yep, even travel to Hawaii requires COVID testing. Since international travel has been so severely restricted, like many others, we decided to hit the road in our travel trailer. Our first trip out was a visit to St. George, Utah to kind of get the bugs out.  Our next road trip will be a month-long adventure to Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks later this summer with lots of stops on the way to visit friends and relatives.

We’ll be back home in time for our 5 Day Back to Cruising Cabo Adventure where we can knock the dust off our shoes and enjoy a luxurious roundtrip cruise from the Port of Los Angeles to sunny Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. October will find us in search of the Northern Lights as we set off on a brand-new adventure to the Land of Fire and Ice, for a highlights tour of Iceland.  Finally, we will end 2021 with a Christmas Cruise of the Western Caribbean onboard the Caribbean Princess and start 2022 off with a New Year’s cruise of the Eastern Caribbean onboard the Regal Princess.

2022 will be a huge year for us as we have some truly exciting Adventures in store, two of which we’d like to get you thinking about now! Our third African Safari Adventure is scheduled for April. The pandemic caused us to postpone this adventure twice, however, that may be great news for you if you have not yet signed up. This is perhaps the most exciting, fun and educational trip you’ll ever do, and you’ve now got this extended opportunity to share in this awesome up close and personal experience with us.

Our second major Adventure for 2022 is your opportunity to see Europe in a most spectacular way. This one-of-a-kind signature vacation adventure can be done as a combination of any or all of our (1) 8 Day Fairytale Rhine River Cruise plus one night in Lucerne, Switzerland and two nights in Lake Como, Italy, (2) Chris & Sue’s 11 Day Intro to Italy Tour of Venice, Tuscany and Rome, and (3) an 8 Day Dream Cruise of the Mediterranean and Aegean. Yes, if you do them all, you’ll be gone a month, but we guarantee you to be totally caught up on all those vacations you missed not to mention mesmerized, inspired and totally blown away by this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Chris and Sue Elder will be with you every step of the way to insure a smooth journey and get you the most out of every minute of this complete European Adventure.

We hope you’ll consider joining us on an adventure or two and we look forward to seeing you on the road again soon.
