A Gift for You on National Travel Advisors Day

May 6 is National Travel Advisors Day. I suppose some deep thinkers could come up with all the wonderful reasons to enter this profession, but for us it is really simple—we just like to help folks travel better.

In our almost 25 years advising folks about travel, we have learned how to navigate the maze of travel options to deliver great trips for our great clients. The only thing that really counts in this business is that our clients are happy with our help.

A Thank You Gift

To say thank you, we would like to offer you a $50.00 on-board credit per cabin on any AmaWaterways cruise you book in May 2020 through us. The booking can be for sailing seasons 2020-2022. We picked this option, as our client satisfaction with AmaWaterways is off the charts good, and it always is good to get even a small discount on any travel booking.

You don’t even have to select your cruise yet. Just let us know you want to take advantage of the offer using this button

Now, to the Rest of Our Weekly Blog

So, this week, after a very brief summary of our qualifications, I’d like to introduce you to the real stars—some of the wonderful folks that have trusted their travels to us.

Just to make this a little easier to read, I have organized these folks by trip types, but don’t think they only take one type of trip—most often could easily fall into several categories.

Ready?—Let’s go!

We Are the Right Folks to Plan your Next Travels

If I had to select only one reason we are really good travel advisors, it is we try to match the trip to its purpose—why do our clients want to go on this particular trip?

Here is what you can expect from us:

· We design vacations that match your travel style

· We will help you reach your Dream Destinations

· We are your Travel Solution and Inspiration

We have 24+ years as a full service travel agency. We like to say we are small enough to give you personalized service, yet big and experienced enough to get you the right trip.

Our knowledge of Europe river cruises and Europe travel is exceptional. We have been on 18 Europe river cruises, written over 60 blogs about all aspects of Europe river cruises, have 3 items on the first page of Google, we have 51 port guides (they are free) for you, and we have help dozens enjoy river cruising in Europe. And if that we not enough, we have 50 free guides to most Europe Cities you might want to visit before or after your Europe river cruise.

River Cruisers

Perhaps our best overall ability to help you travel is our travel specialty, European River Cruises. Here are some folks who we have helped enjoy the special means of travel:
