We recently wrapped up our 2017 Bordeaux River cruise. This sold-out departure featured sailings on the Dordogne and Garonne rivers of France and featured prestigious wine tasting and medieval chateaux along the way. One hundred fifty-six privileged passengers on board were also treated by band members of the City Rhythm Orchestra who insured nightly Jazz entertainment featuring the standards of Sinatra, Fitzgerald, Armstrong and more. This tour comes in at one of our most highly rated programs, and we are already advertising a second departure in October 2018 in the Bordeaux region. And to extend our River Cruise programs, we are also featuring a Douro River Cruise in October 2018 as well, which will take you through the beautiful scenery of Portugal, it's wine traditions and magical landscapes. Don't wait! Call us now to reserve your space on board as our river cruises are extremely popular and do sell out. Please remember that we become a member of your chamber and your partner in travel. All you need to do is pick the program and promote to your membership, and our team will do the rest.
