We know you’ve seen the Viking Cruises’ ads, either mailers coming into your home or on Downton Abbey, and now other series on WTTW. You’ve been wondering if this is a good vacation investment for you. You’ve been seeing their Founder, Tor Hagen, tell you how “Time is our most precious commodity”, and offering you a way of “exploring the world in comfort on a Viking ship”. I will tell you from experience that it is exactly that.

When Cruises International opened their doors 46 Years ago, River cruises were essentially unknown. Viking cruises came into the river cruise picture in 1997 and took the travel world by storm. They were able to show us the world beyond the coastline, into the interior of European countries and “In comfort” as we meandered past small villages and marveled at castles while dining out on deck. Walking through Vineyards and visiting châteaux are among my fondest memories. Our founder, Ines Turus, blended her own Cognac in France on a Viking excursion!

Viking does not stop with River Cruises, their Ocean ships are smaller and able to get into ports the big ships can’t. Viking’s Exploration ships to Antarctica are amazing, truly exploring in comfort.

But is it for you?

There is so much to tell which is why we invite a Viking executive to one of our Explorer Evenings to tell you all about it in an informal setting. This is an evening of mingling with other travelers who would like to consider a Viking cruise on the rivers, the oceans, the Great Lakes, Antarctica, and captivating China.

At this event in late February, enjoy refreshments and great company! Receive a discount and extra shipboard credits once you reserve your cabin within 2 weeks of the event. For more details, please call me or your Cruises International Travel Advisor today or call 847 -303-2020.
