Each cruise line offers a unique product in terms of atmosphere, service, amenities and overall hardware (ship and cabins). We have categorized
the cruise lines we work with into four distinct classes – contemporary, premium, upper premium and luxury. Your knowledgeable cruise consultant
can help you determine what cruise line will best fit your vacation plans.
Whether it’s the destination that is adventurous like Antarctica or the Galapagos Islands, or you can’t wait to don your hiking boots or your scuba
gear on some thrilling shore excursions – there are a number of adventure cruises that will get your adrenaline pumping.
We offer a number of special escorted cruises throughout the year led by our experienced and knowledgeable hosts. Our hosts will welcome you into our
group for an exciting adventure with new friends.
Stunning scenery, charming towns and villages, and intimate modern river cruise ships are making river cruising one of the fastest growing trends in
travel. A river cruise provides a unique and authentic way to visit and explore Europe, Russia, Asia, America and the Amazon.
While it’s usually best to plan your cruise ahead to get your pick of ships, itineraries and cabin selection, there may be some last minute cruise
inventory available if you have a flexible schedule.
Cruising is a great vacation option for single travelers as it is a safe way to travel on your own while enjoying plenty of opportunities to meet other travelers on and off the ship. Occasionally Cruise Specialists can secure special pricing for single cabins and we want to pass on these savings to you.
Theme cruises allow you to combine your vacation and a passion into one special trip. From food and wine, to art appreciation, dance, bridge,
fitness and more – there’s plenty of theme cruises that will allow you to explore a fun hobby with other travel enthusiasts.

We just got home from our 7-day Bermuda cruise aboard Holland America Line’s ms Veendam. In spite of Earl and Fiona, we had smooth seas and good weather. Bermuda was a new destination for us and we regret waiting so long to visit this colorful island. One of the smallest territories in the world at 22 square miles, Bermuda’s population of 67,000 makes it the 3rd most densely populated place on earth.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of sailing aboard the elegant Queen Mary 2. At 151,000 Gross Registered Tons she is one of the largest ships afloat. The Qm2 is now six years old but the maintenance done on board has kept her in pristine condition and she is showing no signs whatsoever of wear and tear.
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.
