Your Ultimate Cruise Awaits You

There are some incredible opportunities for a cruise to many parts of the world in 2018.

Your Ultimate Cruise Awaits you

I have been getting
brochures daily and it certainly makes you think, there must be an incredible
voyage in this pile with my name on it.
I love cruises, and everyone has a different style of travel. One client I have only likes to go on the
biggest ship possible, 5000 passengers
is her cup of tea, another only wants to travel where they have black tie every
night, and my husband refuses to wear a tie on his holiday and wants a small
casual ship. When someone tells me, I don’t like cruises,
I tell them they went on the wrong ship.
I’ve been to over 130 countries and taken over 100 cruises, so I am well
qualified to give advice on travel.

The destinations are exciting, and which part of the world
tickles your fancy for 2018. It’s
important to fit the client to the right cruise line, and of course the
budget. Working with a travel
professional who can advise you is a good thing. One client told me his bar bill is usually
more than the cost of the cruise, so I immediately told him that he should sail
with a good company like Crystal, Regent, Seabourn, or Silver Seas to name just
my favorite lines who are all inclusive, so he won’t pay for wine or liquor.

Pick a destination, and we will guide you to the right cruise line to meet your needs. An all inclusive trip means you won’t be paying for sightseeing and what many people like is having a private car and driver so when they have had enough, they can say, let’s go back to the ship.

You may have to fly a long way to board the ship so it’s a good idea to go business or first class on the airline. If the cruise line isn’t offering a great discount on the air, we can usually manage to obtain a great savings for you to travel in comfort.

If you have already done the Caribbean, Panama Canal,
Hawaii, Alaska, Europe, then try the Middle East, Australia, or Africa. One which tickled my fancy this morning was
a 10 day cruise Iconic Pacific Isles, in March 2018, on Crystal starting
in Tahiti , Rangiroa, Fakaaava, Nuku
Hiva, Pitcairn Island, Easter Island, Robinson Crusoe Island to Santiago, South America. 10 days on a voyage to some unique islands.

We have some exclusive offers which give up to $600 in shipboard credit, and have a voyage to match your budget. Go look at our website – www.allhorizonstvl.com and dream.

Alaska is a wonderful destination for a family holiday and what a great idea for a Christmas present. All ages enjoy this opportunity for an unusual experience. Holland America has a great trip where you can have a cruise, then do a three night land package to see Denali National Park. I love a few days in either Vancouver or Anchorage before boarding the ship. Two fun towns to explore.

Europe is always a popular choice. Scandinavia, or the Greek Islands makes a wonderful honeymoon trip.

You can choose from a 7, 10, 12, or 14 night trip. I always recommend going to the port of call a day or two before the cruise leaves, to start off you trip refreshed after perhaps a long journey.

The opportunities are endless, Have you been to all seven continents, or do you just want a once in a lifetime adventure?

What’s on your Bucket List?
