      @@visitwithus I think I’m going to have to go on more cruises - when we fly from Ohio to Belize and start at 1:00 AM and arrive about 3:00 PM, we are properly worn out. But you two look so bright-eyed in St. Barts that cruising as transportation seems like a definite win!
      Somewhat off-topic but we were talking cruises at a wedding this weekend and I knew all about the joys of Viking thanks to you two 🥰🥰 I was glad to be so well-informed!

      Your stop that day was Tournon. You biked across the Rhône to Tain-l’Hermitage. You were looking for the Valrhona Chocolate Factory outlet, not a regular chocolate shop. The friendly Amakristina staff marked it on a map for us. While great, you can find their fine quality chocolate at shops all over the UK too.

      For anyone interested, I contacted AmaWaterways and asked them why no electric bikes? They said it's down to weight and higher potential for injuries. I'm thinking they're worried about not only accidents but insurance costs @@visitwithus

      Thank you Victoria. We always appreciate your kind comments. ☺️ The blue hat? It has travelled with me all over the world. It’s fabulous and made by a Canadian company called Tilley. They’re not cheap, but will withstand punishment and will last for years. Look them up. (I’m not on commission by the way 😂)

    Next year my husband and I are celebrating 20 years of marriage. I want to take a trip to Europe (we’re from the USA) and I think I’d like to do a river cruise combo with a Italy trip, about 14-16 days total. Any tips for us? For marriage or cruising/traveling Europe? Also, I love your videos… your accent is cool and your videoing is smooth, good narrating. 😊 ps… we’re 40, think a river cruise is ok for us?

    • @visitwithus
      @visitwithus  Год назад +1

      😂😂😂 no advice for the marriage I’m afraid - looks like you’re doing ok if you’ve made it to 20 years 👍
      Italy is lovely, we did a lovely road trip from Pisa to Civitavecchia a few years ago before joining a cruise.
      With regard to river cruising, we would recommend the Danube or Douro for a first one, the scenery is amazing in both. The Danube does have some very romantic stops such as Budapest and Vienna (both amazing) and you could do a pre or post extension to Prague (also very romantic).
      Whatever you decide we sure you’ll fall in love with Europe. If you have any more questions as your plans start to come together then please get in touch 👍

    I saw the earlier video and you mentioned you were in room 211. Isn't that a connecting room, and if so do you have any excess noise from the adjacent room? We're booked on another Ama cruise next year and I was booked in 212 across the hall and have switched rooms because of that. Not sure if adjoining rooms are as annoying as the same on ocean cruises. Just wanted your thoughts.
