~ December 2 - 10, 2008 ~
Prepare yourself for a magical holiday, returning
to the original Christmas Markets of Old Europe, where
many of our current traditions originated! Grand Circle
Travel continues its 50-year award winning reputation
of providing unique and affordable travel opportunities.
This tour is no exception!
Join me as we cruise the Danube River from enchanting
Nuremberg to romantic Vienna. Seven nights aboard
a deluxe river ship, the Swiss registered M/S Rhapsody.
Our memory-making adventure includes transatlantic
airfare, the comfort of an outside cabin, three fabulous
meals each day, visiting Christkindlmarkts, miniature
and regional craft shops as well as historic sights
along the way. Professional guides are available for
included local tours in the medieval towns of Nuremberg,
Regensburg, Passau & Melk - or you can explore
on your own at your own pace!. We depart the USA on
December 2nd arriving in Nuremberg on December 3rd
, where we'll be welcomed by a GCT representative
and taken by private coach to our ship - ready to
begin the trip of a lifetime! You can't imagine the
fun that lies ahead!
Prices range from $1495 to $1995 per person/double
occupancy, based on your departure city and cabin
selection. Departure city choices include Boston,
NYC, Newark, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Washington, DC,
Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Miami,
Baltimore, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Orlando, San
Francisco, Seattle & Tampa.
I've reserved this sailing date of Grand Circle's
Danube Christmas Markets cruises ~ the entire ship
~ just for you, your spouse/family, traveling friends
or club members. They'll have a fabulous time. Traveling
solo? Ask your Travel Consultant to list you as a
Share Requestor and I'll match you up with a compatible
kindred spirit. Or, if you wish a single cabin, there
are a limited number available for a single supplement.
Make your reservation today! Here's all you need
to do: Call 1 800 597.2452, press Option 2. Give them
the name of our tour & sailing date: Danube River
Christmas Markets, December 2, our Group Service Code:
G820-068 Molly Cromwell's Group. Your credit card
and $500 deposit assures your cabin. For those who
can extend their stay, do take advantage of the optional
pre-cruise extension in Munich (don't miss Mad King
Ludwig's Neuschwanstein Castle - it inspired Disney's
Cinderella Castle, plus the incredible walled city
of Rothenberg). Or delay your departure to waltz your
way around the cosmopolitan city of Vienna on the
post-cruise extension. Reservation lines are open
8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (Eastern Time) Mon-Fri and 9 a.m.
- 3 p.m. on Saturday. Call right now!
Inquiring Minds Want to Know….
Will I get seasick? No, there are no tides,
we're on a river not the open ocean. You forget you
are even on a boat!
Private bathrooms? You bet! Sink with storage
space, hair dryer, commode and shower. Plus dressing
table and mirrored storage cabinet in each cabin.
Elevator? An elevator connects all decks.
As well as short flights of stairs.
Do We Dress for Dinner? This cruise is very
informal. There is one dining room and one seating
for each meal. Wine is served with dinner each night.
Dress is very casual, though many of the ladies like
to wear a Christmas-y top or sparkly sweater in the
evening, especially for the Captain's Welcome or Farewell
Dinners.
Onboard Mini Miniatures Show ~ Several dealers,
whose names you know, are signed up to travel with
us, bringing their handcrafted items to participate
in the onboard mini miniatures show. If you're a dealer
and need information, please contact me privately.
Everyone will receive a dealer list before our departure
date.
Workshop: Sue Thwaite/Lady Bug is teaching
an optional Pocket Watch class especially designed
for our cruise! Create your very own historic Nuremberg
Kitchen, small enough to be worn or displayed. These
kitchens are tinier versions of the very old ones
on display at the internationally renowned Nuremberg
Toy Museum. Collectors will linger over their charming
room boxes, houses and miniatures, while others will
enjoy seeing the vast collection of original antique
toys ~ from erector sets, mechanical toys & vehicles
to hobby horses, dolls and so many other memories
of childhood - not yours, your grandparents and great-grandparents!
Remember, we're in the heart of where the toy industry
originated.
QUESTIONS? Don't hestitate to contact me with any
questions. If you have any problem in making your
reservations, call me at once. (703) 978-5353 or mollycromwell@aol.com
2009 Trips & Cruises: I'm working on
2009 now. If there's a place you've longed to visit,
let me know. I'm in the business of making wishes
come true!
