Hello all, I came across an online newspaper near the area where I live, and came across a person who we are all familiar with, Sealord - his obituary. I also knew his real name from the online Tauck magazine, and from a personal message he sent me after I was asking him questions about the Windstar fleet (which to this…
Just wanted to make people aware of the new upgrades, at least as I have experienced them: I added a person to our family Christmas Danube cruise for 2027 and upgraded a single room for my son to a double (upgrade in room and floor 1 to floor 2) with his partner. I paid for it in August and received a receipt. All was done…
There have been several discussions of the problems hearing impaired guests have with the Vox units that Tauck uses. Apple just announced that the new AirPods Pro 2 would have a "hearing aid" function, and that may provide a path to a solution for these guests. The problem with hearing aids with Bluetooth is that the…
If its not one thing its another. Spain is having heavy rains and flooding as I type - got a STEP announcement from the State Department.

Has anyone done the Petra to the Pyramids tour in the past few months? What was the safety like? Any concerns? Thank you
For those who had noticed that the MS Emerald was no longer in the ship line up for Tauck I found what happened to her. Scyla did a major renovation to the ship and is now sailing it as part of their Viva cruise line on the Seine. They reconfigured most of the cabin categories and and added a third dining venue. Basically…
