Picture this......

Balcony Breakfast
     Picture this....waking up a little later than usual, stretching out after a good night's rest, then pulling back the drapes and stepping onto your balcony.  Take a deep breath, smell the fresh ocean air, now let the sun warm your face...suddenly, there's a gentle knock at the door and your morning coffee and pastries arrive....
     This could be your morning ritual for seven glorious days aboard the brand new, MSC cruise ship, Seaside.  As the ship unties her lines, you too, untie the lines of your daily routine.                     Think about that for a minute....


MSC Seaside "Miami Beach" Pool
      Imagine cruising from  Miami on a Saturday evening, and waking up in Nassau, Bahamas.  You can choose the adventure of sailing on a catamaran and snorkeling the pristine Bahamian waters, or relax on private island and choose activities from nothing to releasing
that inner child as you play with water toys!  Back onboard, take time to relax because soon you'll be arriving to beautiful San Juan, Puerto Rico.  Plan on the panoramic San Juan tour, or the San Juan tour with Bacardi Rum factory or visit the only rainforest in the US  territory complete with waterfalls, mountains, rural countryside.  After that adventure your next stop is charming and bustling Philipsburg, St. Maarten.  Shop, window shop, have a lunch, sample tasty bits and liqueurs, stroll to your heart's content - then come back onboard!  Sea days always provide the best opportunity to lounge on deck chairs, read a bit, snooze a bit, take a dip, take a sip and repeat!

     For an entire week, you'll have lived aboard a stylish new ship offering nine eateries (5 are specialty restaurants) plus a "kids only" buffet!  You will have dined in style in a new restaurant each night, snacked your way through the day or "grazed" at the buffet  - and, you could have spent the week visiting any or all of the 20 lounges and trendy bars.  And activities - well, you can be as active as your want, as laid back as you want or a blend of both.

MSC Seaside Aqua Park
     The ship is small village with an aqua park, theatre, comedy club, there's bowling, kids clubs (baby, mini, junior and teen) - just to name a few diversions on five different decks.  MSC Seaside is designed to amaze, cruise the waves and while away the days.
             Once onboard, you'll agree that the ship IS the destination!

     Seaside is still under construction and is expected to set sail December 2017....I have 16 cabins reserved for the March 3, 2018 sailing.....that's almost a year away!  And because these cabins have been reserved so far in advance, the rates are l-o-w  AND come with a special amenity! The reserved group of cabins include: few interior staterooms ($489 per person), a few oceanview staterooms ($689 per person), and some balcony staterooms ($789 per person).  Of course, if you prefer a suite or family suite, I can arrange that for you and include it in the group so you can benefit from the special amenity!

Still need convincing? How about a tour of the ship?  MSC Seaside

Not sure about your budget?  Consider the inside stateroom at $489 per person plus approximately $100+ port charges/fees/taxes = $589+...for under $60 per month, your cruise would be paid in full in 10 months!  Now that's a deal: a week stay on a brand new stylish floating resort hotel, including all meals, onboard entertainment and three ports of call - this is fantastic!!

Reserve your stateroom today!

Travel Europe on your Own - Like a VIP!

     There are travelers, and then there are travelers....  While many enjoy the comfort and security of an organized tour group, there are probably just as many who would prefer the freedom to travel independently but......     

     And when it comes to Europe we think:   All the Culture - All the History - All the Food - All the Languages!  Usually that last one is what stumps most of us when think of travel in Europe.  MONOGRAMS has the answer!  MONOGRAMS is a unique way to travel:  You travel independently and upon arrival, you're greeted at the airport and whisked away to the hotel of your choice, your access to sites and museums are expedited, you're escorted to the train as your journey continues onward...and so on and so on for your following destinations!  They've created itineraries for independent minded travelers who want the freedom to explore on their own, but with that perfect touch of VIP service.  There are one city getaways, two city adventures and three and four city explorations - itineraries range from 3 to 13 days.  MONOGRAMS offers an exceptional value for money - and there is a range of budgets to suit all.  Here's a great example:  

Limerick, Killarney, Dublin & Belfast  10 days starting at $1662 per person (not including transatlantic airfare/Fall 2017). Your vacation includes 9 hotel nights, a local host in each city, breakfast daily, some sightseeing/guided tours, transportation between cities plus meet & greet on arrivals and transfers. 

     And as much as I have traveled, there have been times when I would have liked a little bit of help getting into museums (the lines!), or guiding us to the right train station and many times would have loved for someone greet me at the airport and drive me right to the hotel - hassle free! 

     So, if you've been hesitant to book an independent trip, hesitant to book a group tour, hesitate no more:  MONOGRAMS is for you!  There are plenty of choices from which to choose.

     Watch the video below - and realize this is how you want to travel!  I'll be waiting for your call to book your next MONOGRAMS vacation!

Join me on Holland America Cruising the Baltic Sea!



          I have the pleasure of hosting a DISTINCTIVE VOYAGES cruise aboard Holland America's "Koningsdam" as she sails around the Baltic Sea on September 3, 2017, calling on some of the most interesting and prettiest ports.  There's history and mystery, old castles and towers, modern day kings and queens, busy villages and a serene archipelago, shopping and dining and best of all, you are traveling in style! The grand "Koningsdam" is your floating hotel; it gently cruises from port to port, country to country all the while as you enjoy incredible dining, luxury accommodations, superb service and countless venues for entertainment, activities, cocktails and as much relaxation as you want in 14 days.

     All guests who reserve this DISTINCTIVE VOYAGES cruise, will enjoy a private cocktail party that I will host and exclusive shore excursion that I will accompany.  To learn more about  DISTINCTIVE VOYAGES cruises,  click here.

     I will be your host on this absolutely gorgeous Holland America ship.  We will enjoy two weeks aboard the luxurious "Koningsdam"; departing from, and returning to, Amsterdam.  Early September is a wonderful time to cruise this itinerary; the crowds have gone, the cooler air is perfect for walking and sightseeing.  Holland America offers an impressive collection of shore excursions - there's something for everyone!  This is wonderful opportunity - and I'd love to see you onboard!

     View the itinerary brochure below to see the ports of call in the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Estonia and Germany!  Amazing travel experiences await!

You can contact me (561-727-9666), or your travel agent, for this booking.

I look forward to greeting you!
