WE CAN ONLY DO ONE RIVER BOAT VACATION – WHICH IS THE BEST?

Q – I know this is a tough question, but we are not world travelers, we’ve never been to Europe, and we are getting ready to start thinking about a river cruise for next summer. Is it too early to plan? We’re on a bit of a fixed income and we can see only one trip for a week or two in our immediate future. We love sightseeing and we’re not afraid to try foreign food. Can you start us off with the best itinerary for seven to ten days?

A – Actually no. Answering that question might give us some itinerary feedback, but you really don’t want the best itinerary. You really need to look at the best itinerary for you. That can’t be done over the internet. We need to get to know you a bit, your likes and dislikes, and even a bit about your expectations and concerns. Then, eventually, we will be able to pinpoint the very best boat and itinerary for this important vacation.

That said, we never duck questions here. The parts of the world that we think are most perfectly designed to maximize the joys of river boating are:

FRANCE   –  RUSSIA   –   PORTUGAL   –  EASTERN RUROPE  –  VIETNAM/CAMBODIA   –   and MYANMAR
