My week on the Avalon Vista sailing the Rhine was incredibly special. I joined 130 travel agents across Canada along with ACTA, Air Canada, Manulife, the Globus Family of brands and the Avalon team on this inaugural ACTA summit. We ate amazing food, saw incredible sites, we laughed, we danced and we connected and networked with a great group of humans in the travel industry I am proud to be apart of.
