2028 sounds ridiculously far away. Until the trip you really want doesn’t have the date or cabin you wanted.

That’s why I’m already having 2028 conversations with travelers who have Tauck on their list.

You don’t need to plan every vacation two years in advance. But when you have your heart set on a particular experience, having more choices can make planning early worthwhile.

Are you someone who could plan a trip this far ahead?

If you’re considering Tauck and want help looking at your options, comment 2028 and I’ll send you a link to schedule a consultation with me.

Sometimes the best trips are the ones you weren’t expecting to take.

I have just two cabins available for our December 1 through 8, 2026 Christmas Market river cruise on the Rhine, and this sailing has been sold out for months.

One Swan View room at $3,855 per person
One Category A at $5,704 per person,
Gratuities included.

I have to release these cabins on September 1, 2026 so this is for someone who is actually ready to make December in Europe happen.

Who would you bring with you?

Comment CHRISTMAS and I’ll send you the details.

More isn’t always better.

More restaurants, more entertainment, more attractions and more people can be exactly what some travelers want.

But for others, the best cruise is the one that gives them enough to enjoy onboard without making the ship the entire vacation.

That’s why I always come back to travel style.

What matters more to you on a cruise: everything happening onboard, or where the ship is taking you?

Two river cruises can visit similar places and still feel completely different.

That’s why I don’t think the best question is simply, “Which one costs less?”

The better question is: What do you want included, and what kind of experience do you want once you’re there?

Some travelers want more flexibility and are happy to add things as they go. Others would rather have more taken care of upfront and place a higher value on special access and included experiences.

That difference matters.

So if you were choosing between Viking and Tauck, what would matter most to you: price, inclusions, or the overall experience?

There really isn’t one “best” cruise line.

There’s only the one that fits what you care about most.

Some travelers want amazing food. Some care about service. Some want more time in port. Some want a quieter atmosphere. Some want everything included.

That’s why recommendations without context can be so misleading.

Before you ask, “Which cruise line should I book?” ask yourself: What matters most to me on vacation?

That answer usually tells you much more.

There is something especially magical about sailing the Danube during Christmas market season.

On AmaWaterways’ AmaMora, you can spend your days exploring some of Europe’s most beautiful Christmas markets, then come back onboard to warm up, relax, and watch the lights along the river as you sail to the next city.

From Vienna and Budapest to smaller towns along the Danube, this is one of those European river cruise itineraries where the season becomes part of the entire experience.

If you love Christmas markets, festive cities, and the idea of seeing several destinations without constantly packing and unpacking, a Danube Christmas market river cruise is hard to beat.

The best vacations usually have something in common: they feel like you.

The right pace. The right atmosphere. The right amount of exploring, relaxing, dining and being taken care of.

That’s why I don’t think choosing a cruise should start with “Which cruise line is best?”

It should start with “How do I actually like to travel?”

What’s one thing that makes a vacation feel like your kind of trip?
