Adventurous Clients & Unforgettable Memories!

Just got a fantastic update from clients wrapping up their 10-day Northern Lights cruise—and what an adventure they’ve had!

They discovered what a skimobile is (basically an ATV on skis!), and Cheri even got behind the wheel for a wild ride down mountainous, narrow roads—straight into Sweden! No passport checks that day, just pure adventure.

Their final stop was Amsterdam, where they took a canal ride past the Anne Frank House (look for the green door!). Tomorrow they’ll be headed home via London, carrying incredible memories of breathtaking Northern Lights, amazing new friends, and a top-notch cruise experience.

Can’t wait to see more photos once they have solid WiFi! Safe travels home! ✨🚢🏔️
