About Me

View from the Austrian Alps to one of it's Lakes
View from the Austrian Alps to one of it's Lakes

There are several ways to explore the distinct countries of Europe, one of them is by travelling on land, within a guided tour or on your own, which I explain in more detail in another one of my biographies. 

Then there is River and Ocean Cruising as a means to travel in Europe.

River Cruising I find to be one of the most relaxing ways to travel. While in destination, it gives you the choice to explore on your own, to do a regional bike tour, a combination of both or join a group tour with a guide, giving all the history and stories of the different sites.

The ships enhance the local experience through special meals created from local ingredients and through local entertainment, invited to perform onboard of the ship.

Ocean Ships are larger than River Cruise Ships and, due to the size of the ships, they usually dock in the major cities. On the way to your next destination you will see picturesque landscapes passing by, like the Norwegian Fjords or the Dalmatian Coastline.

You might need to take a taxi or public transportation to go into the cities where you dock, or you can take an excursion organized by the cruise ship. Personally, I like to take an excursion when on an ocean cruise, as it allows me to see a lot of the destination in a relatively short period of time.

The advantage of travelling on a ship is  that the ship is like a floating hotel, allowing you to unpack only once. Also, all the meals and entertainment are included.

Dreamed of this trip for 52 years
Reviewed By Bob - Glen Oaks | Traveled to Germany ~ Europe
Competent, comprehensive, careful planning from Gabriela helped make this trip more than we dreamed of. From our first contact through the end of the trip she was always available to answer questions and make gentle suggestions - which always were spot on. By the time we left I felt comfortable that I had everything I needed to enjoy this long-anticipated journey, which ended up filling us to the brim wit memories and photos of beautiful Europe from Budapest to Amsterdam along the rivers. Thanks, Gabriela!

Our Birthday trips
Reviewed By Laurie and Larry - New York | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
We met Gabriella two years ago. Together we planned our trip to Italy and our recent European River Cruise. Gabriella is very happy to have your input. Both trips were planned to the letter. We enjoyed our vacations so much thanks to all the details Gabriella took care of. She has become a friend. We recently recommended her to a co worker, who was thrilled with the money he saved and all the little things that were taken care of. Working with Gabriella will put your mind at rest, to ensure a delightful, stress free trip. She does all the work, and it doesn't cost you a penny. We can't say enough about how professional and friendly she is.
