I bet you’ve been wondering what our next big group event is going to be. When it’s going to be announced, and where we’re going to be going.

Just to recap, our current privately escorted tours that have openings are:

I had a last minute cancelation on my Greece and the Greek Isles trip coming up Sept 1, 2021. Please call me asap if you want to join me.

There are a few cabins on Doreen’s Rhine Castles and the Swiss Alps AMA river cruise coming up October 2-9, 2021

There are 2 seats available on my Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg tour April 9-18, 2022

We have 2 personally escorted tours that are just over half full: My Hot Tam private tour of Scotland in September, 2022, and Doreen’s private tour of Scotland and Ireland in May 2023.

More information about all of those is available on our website, www.thejoyoftravel.net under the “travel with us” tab.

After those, I have the next three personally escorted private events all set; the only decision yet to be made is the timing.

Here’s the inside scoop. I have a list of the tours you told me were on your bucket lists. I have my own bucket list. I have my favorites that I want to experience again (Spain). And I know this industry pretty well. So, having said all of that, usually our groups, especially our Signature Events, are scheduled based on which bucket list item is available at the most amazing deal for our customers.

That’s right, it’s all about you. It’s about getting you the trip of a lifetime for an astounding price point.

Here are the next three that I have in the works:

Africa

Egypt

Paris, Normandy and Chateaux Country (yes, I’ve done this before, loved it, want to do it again)

I also want to do the Fjords of Norway with Viking Ocean, and another Christmas river cruise. Doug is adamant about going to French Polynesia on the Paul Gauguin, so that’s going to be happening as well.

I hope one or more of these appeals to you. Keep watching my facebook page (facebook.com/thejoyoftravel) and reading these emails. We announce our groups through our email database first, then on Facebook. You’ll need to be prepared to act quickly. When we announced the private Tulip Time sailing all of the panoramic suites, which are 90% of the ship, sold out in less than three weeks.

I would highly suggest opening a travel savings account and depositing into it on a scheduled basis. That’s the easiest way to commit to seeing the world, and having the funds necessary to grab your space when we announce our private events.

I hope you are having an amazing summer. My privately escorted tour of Greece and the Greek Isles is coming up Sept 1 after three reschedules. We are so excited about finally getting to go!

Thank you for your continued support. You saved us during this pandemic, you truly did.

Sincerely,
Joy
