Wow!!  This is small ship cruising at its best!

You get the luxury of Crystal cruise, the gorgeous suites, the all-inclusive cruising you expect from Crystal and you get to see smaller more Intimate ports!

I love digging deep into a culture and seeing how they live and and their customs and their food, and seeing their way of life.

PLUS Crystal has an exciting opportunity for you.

In this weeks episode Kathleen from Plenty of Sunshine Travel met with Jennifer from Avalon Waterways. We discussed the Amazon, Ganges, Machu Picchu, Mekong and Galapagos itineraries.

These are amazing! By cruising with Avalon you not only get the river cruise experience but you get to do a land add-on with each of these cruises!

Personally, in my opinion, the best itinerary that we discussed is Machu Picchu.  The reason I think Machu Picchu is the best is because of the value you get with Avalon!

When you arrive you get to spend 1 night at the base of Machu Picchu! You stay in a hotel right there! You don't need to stay far away then have to bus in. You are staying in the heart of the attraction! You also get 2 days of admission into this area to explore. Since your flight arrives early in the morning you have all day to explore.

How amazing! You do have a few flights with this itinerary but they are all included. So You get to see Iquitos, plus Lima and Cusco as well as Sacred Valley and of course the cruise in the Amazon!  What a dream vacation!!!

I love how Avalon combines so all the tours and land portions as well as the river cruise! Fabulous! I think I am ready to go! Are you? All you have to do is send me a message and this trip can be yours!

I also do a show notes  page on my website. Which has all the highlights and some of the pictures for you to see them better. as well as the Youtube video

On this weeks episode Kathleen from Plenty of Sunshine Travel met with Karl from SilverSea Cruises 

For those of you who don't know about Silversea, they are an expedition cruise line that specializes in adventure for all ages! They do have classic itineraries and expedition itineraries. Today we are going to be discussing the expedition cruises specifically the Arctic, Antarctica and the Galapagos Islands.

You know when you disembark off the larger ships and you have to wait in line? You have crowds everywhere? Well, you won't find that on Silversea!  Typically, you are greeted with people on the pier trying to sell you something, or directing the crowds to the cabs or busses.

Once I get past them and where I want to go, I usually breathe a sigh of relief. Are you the same way?

On Silversea, the greeting party is penguins on the shore. They come right up to you to greet you!

I also do a blog post for each cruise chat video that we do. In this post you will find the slides - in case we went a little too fast and you want to see them again. As well as the highlights of the video. and the Youtube video as well.

We also chatted about the Ocean Medallion program and some fun new itineraries that will be released soon!

I really love how Princess Cruises brings the destinations back on board. I mean....  who wouldn't want to pet the puppies and learn all about how they are raised and will be sled dogs when they are older? Cuddling with a bunch of puppies...  I am there!!  I lost my dog in the summer and I miss him so much, so I would take having a dog on my lap again, anytime!
