After the ASTA River Cruise Expo in Vienna, the training continued on the brand-new AMADEUS Nova along the Danube!

This ship is absolutely stunning—modern, spacious, and elegantly designed. The upper decks feature floor-to-ceiling retractable windows, creating an open and airy feel. My stateroom even had a walk-in closet! With only 158 passengers and three decks, the ship offers an intimate atmosphere and a high level of personalized service.

Check out life on the Amadeus Nova including the incredible dinners and their stunning presentation.

Just visited the breathtaking Melk Abbey and its stunning church! Perched above the Danube, this Baroque masterpiece has been home to Benedictine monks since 1089 and is still an active monastery today. The library is a treasure trove of knowledge, and the church’s golden interior is simply divine. A must-see in Austria!

Our 13-night island-hopping adventure in Hawaii has come to a end in Maui! This island was the perfect finale, offering sunshine, stunning beaches, whale sightings, and unforgettable sunsets.

This time, we explored some new sights, including the charming surf town of Paʻia, the lush ʻĪao Valley, the fascinating Maui Ocean Center, and the fresh, local flavors of Kumu Farms.

The Sheraton Maui was an incredible home base, with gorgeous grounds, beautiful pools, and a prime location near shopping and dining. We soaked up all that Kaʻanapali has to offer—snorkeling at the iconic Black Rock, witnessing cliff dives, and taking in the island’s breathtaking views.

A huge thanks to Globus, one of our favorite tour suppliers, for making this itinerary truly magical! 3 nights on 4 different islands was absolutely amazing!

🌺Kona Coffee Living History Farm!

Hawaii’s only living history coffee farm since 1920 was a step back in time. It is grown on the volcanic slopes of Mauna Loa and is world famous for its rich flavor.

We got to see how the coffee was grown, harvested, and roasted, and even met costumed interpreters sharing stories of the hardworking Japanese immigrant families who made Kona coffee world-famous.

This immersive experience makes it another must-do for The Big Island of Hawaii!

Volcanoes National Park is an absolute must-see on Hawaii’s Big Island! Covering over 500 square miles, the park is home to two of the world’s most active volcanoes, Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. Standing at the edge of Kīlauea Crater was an unforgettable experience, especially with the latest volcanic activity happening that very morning. The park also features unique lava tubes, steam vents, and breathtaking hiking trails that showcase the island’s dynamic landscape.
