🚢 Sea vs. River Cruising – Which One Floats Your Boat? 🌊🚤

Thinking about a cruise but not sure whether to sail the open seas or glide down a scenic river? I am lucky to have experienced both, and they are both incredible holidays for different reasons. Here’s a quick breakdown to help you decide!

🌊 Sea Cruising

✔️ Larger ships with more entertainment, dining & activities
✔️ Vast ocean views & exotic island-hopping itineraries
✔️ Longer journeys, often with days at sea
✔️ Ideal for those who love variety, adventure & big-ship luxury

🏞️ River Cruising

✔️ Smaller, more intimate ships for a relaxed experience
✔️ Scenic routes with ever-changing landscapes right outside your window
✔️ Frequent stops with immersive cultural experiences
✔️ Perfect for those who love history, exploration & a slower pace

Which type of cruise would you choose? Please comment ⬇️⚓

First Night Aboard the Viva Two! 🚢✨

What a fantastic first day cruising the Danube with Eva Bose and Rebecca Edmonds Not Just Travel

The river treated us to breathtaking architecture, a rich tapestry of history, and the vibrant culture of this incredible city.

I can definitely recommend river cruising 🌍⚓

12/03/2025

One of the things I love about business trips is catching up with my fantastic Not Just Travel friends!

Great company, great conversations, and of course, some fabulous cocktails to top it off!🍹✨

Cheers to making work feel like fun!

On Friday evening, I had the honour of being invited for drinks and dinner with Scenic & Emerald River Cruises The rooftop bar at the Marriott Hotel was absolutely stunning, and it was a pleasure to make some new connections in such a lovely setting.

As luck would have it, I bumped into them again on Saturday morning at the trade fair, a great way to catch up again 🙂

A huge thank you for your wonderful hospitality. 🍸🍽️✨

On Friday, I swapped the grey skies of Manchester for the stunning sights of Budapest as we headed to the River Cruise Conference!

We’ve spent the weekend immersed in all things river cruising, and can’t wait to share more exciting details soon. 🌍⚓

06/03/2025

🚢 I’m heading off to Budapest tomorrow for the River Cruise Conference, and I'm excited 🌍✨

River cruising offers a completely different experience from sea cruising, and I’m looking forward to discovering all it has to offer.

Meet Kerry, our guest speaker at Thursday's Knutsford Brunch Club.
Consultant Forensic Psychologist, best-selling author, TV presenter and broadcaster, and anti-violence campaigner.

Come along to the fantastic Cheshire Club networking event, enjoy a delicious brunch then listen to Kerry's talk on Creating Opportunity out of Crisis. Get your ticket here: https://www.trybooking.com/uk/EIYB

Kerry Daynes is TV's most authentic and recognised forensic psychologist. She is also a Sunday Times bestselling author of The Dark Side of the Mind. A regular TV presenter, campaigner and unforgettable speaker, Kerry speaks on the topics of mental wellbeing, compassionate leadership and resilience & growth in the face of adversity. Her second book What Lies Buried was published in Aug 2021.

During her remarkable career, Kerry has worked with everyone from shoplifters to serial killers in prisons, secure hospitals, courtrooms and police stations. With a list of clients that reads like a Who’s Who of the UKs most notorious criminals, she has seen it all and is uniquely placed to explain not just the what and how, but the why behind criminal, victim and wider human behaviours.

Kerry has a jaw-dropping and awe-inspiring personal story. She has battled sexism and misogyny – including being locked in a prison cell with an intimidating prisoner just for laughs, not by inmates but by the guards! She has been the victim of a stabbing on duty, and the target of a terrifying stalker. She suddenly lost her hearing in 2019, and yet it hasn’t stopped her becoming a regular on television, an award-winning anti-stalking campaigner and passionate advocate for victims of violence and abuse.

She is perhaps best known for her fan-favourite role as ‘The Profiler’ on Discovery’s long-running series Faking It: Tears of a Crime, although is regularly featured as an expert or presenter in crime documentaries internationally. Kerry published The Dark Side of the Mind, the first of her bestselling memoirs in 2019, receiving critical acclaim for her ‘warmth, wit and wisdom’ and portrayal of both offenders and victims as multifaceted human-beings, rather than stereotypes. The sequel, What Lies Buried, was listed for the 2021 Crime Writers Association Golden Dagger award for non-fiction.

Kerry is a Consultant Psychologist, Chartered Psychologist and Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society. She is a Health & Care Professions Council Registered and Practitioner Forensic Psychologist. She is also a Chartered Scientist and member of the Science Council.

Kerry is a proud Patron of the National Centre for Domestic Violence and Talking2Minds, a national charity treating PTSD in current and ex-members of the military and blue-light services. She is also a member of the Board of Trustees of The Suzy Lamplugh Trust, the UK’s leading personal safety and anti-stalking charity. She was the recipient of an Inspirational Woman Award in 2023 and named the 2024 Crème del Crème Cheshire Female Of The Year.

Bright, funny and opinionated, combining pin-sharp psychological insights with outrageous and heart-breaking anecdotes from her professional life, Kerry is a fantastic addition to any panel and an impressive and unforgettable speaker.

She knows how to connect with audiences in order to deliver a powerful message and understands how a spellbinding keynote to begin (or end) sets the tone for the day and beyond. Her storytelling style captures and holds attention, making people experience a range of emotions but always leaving them on a high. She expertly crafts her talks around the themes of social justice and compassion, burnout and resilience, mental wellbeing, women’s interests and empowerment, championing ourselves and each other, the power of social connections/teamwork and personal growth.
