Adventures by Amaris Travel Agency Travel agent specializing in family travel including multi-generational family vacations My love for travel began as a little girl. It's a true love of mine.

My parents are both immigrants, and that gave me the opportunity to begin traveling international at a young age. We often visited England and Mexico to visit family and to vacation. In my free time as a girl, I loved reading Nickelodeon Magazine because there was also a section on travel. In high school, I participated in People to People where I went abroad to play volleyball and travel to France and Italy. In college, I spend a semester working at Walt Disney World and a summer in Europe. I spent three weeks studying in Seville, Spain, and another three weeks exploring Europe. That summer I visited England, Wales, Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, and Ireland. A couple year after college, I realized I had traveled so much abroad, but hadn't explored much of my own country. I went on a three-week long road trip with my family where we visited Badlands National Park, Wind Cave National Park, Devils Tower State Park, Yellowstone National Park, Yosemite National Park, Grand Canyon National Park, and Rocky Mountain National Park. That trip was amazing and I wanted to explore more. I found a summer job working for Trek America where I worked as a tour leader taking tourist all over the United States and Canada. I crossed so much off my bucket list that summer! This travel bug has continued into my adult life, and I squeeze trips whenever I can. My friends and family often came to me for travel advice, and in 2019 I decided to take this hobby of helping people plan trips and make it my new career. My specialty in travel falls within three categories: family vacations, runDisney trips, and milestone vacations. Today I look as that concussion as a blessing. It allowed me to re-evaluated where I was in my life and re-focus on what’s important to me. I loved working in video production, but the stress and restricting nature of corporate America was unwelcome friction that was growing larger and larger and becoming more difficult to manage with the increased responsibilities of caring for a child. My break from corporate America made me realize that there are other ways to make a living that fit better with my personality and my values. This change in careers also better fit my life as a mom with a special needs son. My life feels so right now, and I love helping families carve out time for themselves. My fondest memories in life are mostly centered around family vacations, and I want to help other families create those life-long memories.

Day 6: Traveling to Buenos Aires

Goodbye Brazil. Hello Argentina. Today is a travel day and we will be moving from Iguazu Falls to Buenos Aires. We wake up and enjoy a breakfast buffet and then place our bags outside our door at 8:15am. Globus will move our bags from our door to the front of the airport. Our departure time is 9am so we meet in the lobby and board the bus.

The bus drives us out of Brazil. We stop by immigration and we all need to get out for the bus and proceed through immigration. We receive our exit stamp for Brazil. We load back on the bus and the tour director collects the passports. Entering Argentina is much easier. We stay on the bus and everything is done while we sit and wait.

The airport is relatively small. We start with check-in. We have been warned that bags over 30lb will be charged a fee. I think all of us have a bag over 30lb, but it seemed random with who was charged for the overage. I was one of the few charged for my less than 50lb. Bag. It was $36. Carry-on bags and personal items also have a weight limit, but no one checked those bags.

The airport is small, but it still has a lounge. We utilize it for some coffee and light snacks. There were about 9 people from our group who used the lounge and then we boarded the plane and fly to Buenos Aires.

We land at the domestic airport in Buenos Aires which is near the city. We can see a body of water which confuses me and I ask the guide about it. It’s a very large river! We collect bags and board the bus. Fernanda is our local guide in Buenos Aires and she gives us information on the drive. Check-in is very quick considering the group size. We basically have time to drop bags off in the room and then we meet in the lobby for a short walk.

The walk is very practical. It’s to tell us some important things about the city and show us options for dinner. She tells us that taxis require the local currency. We can use Uber and use a credit card though. She also tells us that banks have outrageous fees. If you take out $100 worth of pesos the bank’s fee will be around $80. She said there are money exchange places that are better. We ordered local currency from our bank, but it was difficult. A lot of banks don’t offer this particular currency. Luckily, cards are taken most places so we shouldn’t need a lot. We basically have it to tip our guides.

The tour ends at a pizza place that we are told is famous. I look at my mom to see what she wants to do for dinner and she’s practically sprinting to the pizza place. Okay. We’re eating here. I tell a few people we’re eating here and before we know it nearly the whole group joins. Luckily, locals eat dinner late so it’s easy to get a table for all 30 of us. The pizza here was very good. We ordered a cheese pizza with asparagus. We had to order the sauce on the side because they use red pepper flakes in it so I can’t eat it. We chose this particular pizza because it said it had a white sauce, but the sauce had peppers in it as well. The small pizzas are four large slices and perfect for two people. They brought a giant bowl of sauce for my mom.

We return to the hotel. I hangout at the rooftop bar with others from the group and then return back to the room. My mom is still up and she’s having an issue with her phone. Her phone is setup really weird. She has two phone numbers on it but only one active line. Her normal phone number is not the active line, but somehow it still works at home. The problem is that she’s being double-charged for international service. She was on the phone with Verizon clearly getting nowhere. I helped her setup fall forwarding and turning off one of the lines so she should be okay now. Tomorrow we’ll further explore Buenos Aires.

My clients often ask which river cruise line is “the best.” But "the best" line is really just the one that fits how you like to travel.

These are reasons why I'd recommend -Luxury-Cruises as the best fit for a client:

→ You care about service more than anything. Riverside runs a 1:1 staff-to-suite ratio, and every suite has a dedicated butler. It feels more like a boutique hotel than a traditional cruise.

→ Food is a big part of the trip for you. Cuisine is one of the things they’re best known for.

→ You don’t have two weeks. Sailings start at 3 nights, so it’s easy to fit into any schedule or pair with a longer European land trip.

→ You’d rather not add up extras at dinner. Most guests go with the all-inclusive package with excursions and just enjoy the trip.

Who it’s probably not for: anyone seeking big-ship entertainment, a river cruise outside of Europe, or budget travelers.

Thinking about a European river cruise in 2027 or 2028? Send me a note and we’ll figure out which line fits you.
