Comeback to the World

It’s comeback time – ours, yours and the world’s.

We don't know about you, but we've been missing the world - a lot. 

Last year was going to be amazing for us. We started out in Australia on a Princess Cruise which was sailing through Southern Australia, and then heading for Thailand and Singapore. Just after our trip began, we were notified by email that our cruise would terminate after the last port of call in Australia. Heartbroken, we flew home and shortly after that went into hibernation like the rest of the world. 

We've been dreaming about our next big adventure, waiting for the day that we can plan our own trips, and help our clients turn their dreams into memories. Well the moment has finally come to leave normal behind and get back to amazing! We are ready – and excited – to invite our clients back to the world they love! 

North America & Europe Tours Restarting

Last week, Globus Family of Brands began operating tours in North America, welcoming travelers to our beloved, postcard-perfect national parks. And, this week, the EU announced plans to open borders to vaccinated travelers. As a result, they are solidifying plans to begin operating Avalon river cruises in July and have hundreds of departure dates for Globus, Cosmos and Monograms vacations THIS year!

Soon, we can step inside the colossal walls of the Colosseum; drink-in the splendor of French vineyards; sail through the storied history and storybook scenery of Central Europe and breathe-in wonder from the coastal cliffs of the Atlantic to the picturesque coves of the Mediterranean. 

Lucky for you, Globus unveiled even more opportunities to fall in love with the world again – in North America and Europe. They have introduced Choice Touring by Globus which promises wayfarers and wanderers all the wonder of discovering the world with a touch of whim and all the fun of exploring new destinations with the infusion of flexibility. They are kicking-off this new program this year with 13 NEW Choice Touring vacations in Europe and North America

Contact us to learn more about this new way of touring, but before you go, watch this video to get you ready for your Comeback to the World.

VIP Way to Travel

Resorts, Cruises, & Tours

When it comes to leisure travel, these 3 categories come to mind.  We devoted the entire month of October to Cruises, since we were participating in the National Plan a Cruise Month annual event. In this post, we turn to one of our Land Travel Partners, Globus Family of Brands, for a primer on touring.

Do You Like Getting VIP Treatment?


Of course you do!   We suspect you frequent some businesses, more often than others, because of the way they treat you.   You know that you'll have a great experience even before you arrive.  You trust their recommendations and don't need to do any planning before your arrival.    

Let your next VIP adventure begin now ...

Edge Embarkation Lunch

click images to enlarge
Welcome Aboard
Buffet Lunch


Our cruise might be departing for the Western Caribbean but Celebrity Edge Oceanview Cafe  took us to lands far away.  The buffet offers traditional favorites, as well as cuisine from around the world with a menu that varies.  The selections included Latin, Italian, Indian, Asian, Grilled Favorites, Seafood, Salads, Cheese, Bread and of course scrumptious desserts.

The floor plan is very open with the interior setup with several stations, each featuring a unique cuisine.  My suggestion is that you first take a tour around the entire buffet before deciding what to select.  Take some pictures as well so that you can remember the experience long after you return home.

Did  I Mention Desserts

If you have a sweet tooth like me, you'll want to save room so that you can dive into the desserts.  If you can't find something you like there, waddle over to Scoops for some gelato or ice cream.  There's an extra charge for this venue, but if you are a Captain's Club member, you can get a free scoop of gelato during your cruise.
