Wendy Dell & Teresa Tennant at Sail Away

My friend, Wendy, and I recently sailed as the Virtuoso group hosts onboard the Wind Surf from Venice to Venice.  Hotel Manager Geert de Meyer personally greeted guests as we checked in and he requested a steward to take our large bags to the ship.  Another steward escorted us to our stateroom and explained where things were, that we could check out DVDs at Reception, and even borrow an iPod pre-loaded with music for the stereo system. 

Recently my husband and I visited many ports of Alaska’s fascinating Inside Passage from our Holland America Line Alaska Cruise. We were amazed by the sheer rugged beauty of this untamed wilderness that surrounds these small port towns, some only accessible by sea plane or boat.

We have completed our exclusive Cruise Specialists Shore Excursion programs for these two exciting voyages. The ms Prinsendam 2010 Grand South America Shore Excursion materials were recently mailed and later this week we plan to mail the ms Amsterdam 2010 Grand World Voyage tour materials.

We have some incredible tours planned including a safari to Thornybush Private Luxury Game Reserve, a fabulous trip to Machu Picchu (on the World Cruise) and also a special cruise on Li River with a visit to Terracotta Warriors.
