Cunard is a leading luxury brand, and it’s been a bucket-list cruise for me for years. I love the British influence—from the food, to the music, to the ballroom dancing and the Queen’s high tea. Spectacular!

Such a lovely hotel in a great city. It’s close to downtown, and walkable to area attractions such as the Public Market and the original Starbucks. Amazing fresh seafood and vibrant waterfront shopping.

I absolutely love the diversity of things to see and do in the Rocky Mountains. Breathtaking landscapes surround you and there is so much history. Fantastic offerings year-round.

The all-adult, all-inclusive experience aboard a Virgin Voyage is unlike any other cruise line out there. A truly unique experience with so many fun activities on board, you may never want to get back home!

I cannot express enough how pleased I was with my overall experience on an Avalon River Cruise. Being a foodie, the cuisine was exceptional. I also enjoyed the excursions which allowed me to tour cities at port with a group. I was a solo traveler and it really took a lot of the pressure off. I also did a little solo exploring. The oversized balcony was such a lovely part of my state room. I spent many hours sitting on my balcony enjoying the countryside and villages as we passed by. The music and entertainment onboard was also fun and I met several lovely people with whom I participated in activities. There was ample time at each port to take in the sights, eat and shop. I highly recommend this experience!

This is a great option for an affordable, quick weekend getaway. Kick back, enjoy the sun & cuisine as you sail a short distance to CocoCay for a day of water sports, relaxation and more.
