Get Inspired for Spring Travel
Whether you intend to or not, taking a trip involves opening yourself up to a
change in perspective. Bill Harlan, famed Napa vintner, recently spoke about a
two-week trip to Bordeaux that inspired him to write a 200-year business plan.
While your next vacation is unlikely to result in such a long-term strategy,
there’s no doubt that each adventure leaves lingering impressions that can
shape your thinking for years to come.
In this issue, Ross Clarke takes us to the Spanish island of Tenerife, to explore
its beautiful contradictions: golden beaches, volcanic landscapes and lush
forests. We then dive into the culinary heart of Türkiye (Turkey): Istanbul, that
legendary continent-straddling city, where Paul Benjamin Osterlund considers
the kebab and its history, as well as its cultural significance in the country and
beyond. We also board a Viking Ocean Cruise with Lisa Maloney to visit the
fascinating port cities along Alaska’s beguiling Inside Passage.
Once you’ve explored the ideas within these pages, we’re here to offer expert
advice, guide your selections and enhance your trip with valuable amenities.
Happy travels!

The last Pacific Island to be populated (around 1250-1300 CE) offers simply unimaginable natural landscapes, rich cultural traditions . . . and yes, has far more sheep than people (by a ratio of 5-to-1!).

Exclusive Shore Experiences
About Our Excursions
We provide a wide variety of exciting and enriching shore excursions - 4,500 excursions in over 300 ports worldwideHow do we have the best shore excursions?
While other companies sell cruises and other forms of travel, we focus exclusively on shore excursions. We utilize this expertise to select the highest quality shore excursions delivered by local experts in the most cost effective manner for our customers. Since we are not a large cruise line catering to thousands of customers per day, our cruise excursions packages allow you to travel in much smaller groups offering a more personalized experience. We offer a large number of unique cruise excursions that cannot be purchased from the cruise line. We encourage you to browse through the wide variety of excursions or call us for personal advice.
Cruise Excursion Sizes
Private
Private Shore Excursions allow you to travel with your party alone and, in many cases, to fully customize your shore tour. For groups of 4 or more, we can usually arrange a private shore excursion for less than the cost of a large cruise line tour.
Small Group
We offer two types of excursions; Small and Standard. Our Small group excursions are tailored to groups of 2-20 people. These tours are smaller than those offered by cruise lines and offer the unique ability to provide a more personalized experience. Our Standard excursions cater to groups of 20-50 people, which are similar in size to the tours offered by cruise lines. While Standard tours are tailored for larger groups, we focus on an extremely high level of quality and service.
Standard
Standard Shore Excursions typically range from 20-50 people. These tours are similar in size to those of the cruise lines. While these day excursions are larger in size, our focus on quality remains extremely high.
