Traveling Solo?


Solo travel at its best is deliciously self-indulgent: eat whatever and whenever you want, spend as long or as little as you like in a place, skip famous sights, sign up for the super cheesy. It's a time where the only compromises you have to make are with yourself.


If you're curious about waived SOLO supplements, contact me!

Darn! 

Winter is coming...


Now is the time to start thinking about where you might want to go this winter when the temperatures drop.


To choose where to go, you might take into consideration how long the flight is, how many flights per day, how many other people are going to the same place and what there is to do there.


No matter where you choose to go, contact me for recommendations for an all inclusive resort, or a villa on the beach!

Preparing for your cruise

Now that you've deposited your cruise, what's the next step?


You will want to login to the top of the Amawaterways page under "Your Cruise" to fill out your emergency contacts and your health questionaire.


Once that is done, you can just plan what you will pack and sit back and get excited.


At around 60 days from your trip, you'll want to download the MyAma app and login with your booking ID. Here you'll get to choose your excursions. This is where it gets exciting! But don't fret, if you change your mind about which excursions, you'll be able to do that right up until you walk on the ship. Your cruise manager will help you with that.


Around 30 days out form your trip, your cruise documents will be ready, and accessible on the app as well. Here you'll get all the details, of where the ship will be, where to find an Ama rep at the airport etc. Read through these thoroughly!


Once your exiciting day comes that you finally get to your starting destination, that's where the magic happens. Make sure when you board the ship to make your reservations for the Chef's Table. Did you know you can borrow a curling iron at the Reservatios desk? You sure can!


And did you know that you can board the ship as early as 9 am? You can, although your room may not be ready until 3 pm. You can have a snack and a drink and meet your fellow cruisers.


I hope you have an upcoming river cruise to get excited about. If not, contact me and we can find you your perfect itinerary!


Happy Sailing!!
