Dragging though.

Between two flights between USA and Europe in 5 days and three jam packed days checking out river boats from 8.00 am in the morning to well past midnight before we went to sleep you need to give me some time to collect my notes together. I am also trying to wrap up ROAR and get the final documents out on GAME.

Bottom line. For our escorted trips I think the two cruise lines to consider are AMA Waterways and Scenic Cruises.

I think I will write up full reviews with comparisons and send those to anyone who is on the waitlist and requests the information. Then you can vote on which line you prefer. Maybe see if Ken can load pictures to Smugmug.

Other good lines are Tauck Swiss, River Cloud, Avalon, and Uniworld. All varying price ranges with a lot of differences in the product and environment offered.

If was an extremely educational experience and one I am very glad I did.

Hi Ngaire: I'm exhausted simply reading your itinerary! Could you please put me on your list of interested (unfortunately not 'interesting') people. If something could be organised after mid June, we would be very keen (pardon the pun). Lee

Think we may already be on the interested list.

I too am exhausted just reading the above, but I'm sure that you now have a wealth of information that will be most valuable to BK clients who are interested in these River Cruises.

I think we're already on the interested list. But, just in case we're not, I definitely want to see the comparisons.

Ngaire, I don't know how you do it but am sure glad that you go to this much trouble to help us have a good time!
