Cruise Edition: Istanbul, Turkey
I went to Europe and Asia in the same day, saw an actual Bris room, partied all night, and decided I could check Istanbul off my list.
French Days & Ibiza Nights - A Virgin Cruise
Our first cruise on Virgin Voyages to Marseilles, Nice, Monaco, Palma de Mallorca, and Ibiza was pretty great! Check out our experience with booking the cruise, on board the ship, as well as each of the ports.
Cruise Edition: St. Petersburg, Russia
They say it will take 11 years to go through all 700 palaces in St. Petersburg. I’m willing to take that challenge.
Cruise Edition: Rakvere & Tallin, Estonia
Climbing castle walls, going to hell and back, and wandering the Old City of Tallin, made for one memorable experience!
CRUISE EDITION: Stockholm & Archipelago , Sweden
New bucket list item: Own a chateau in the Archipelago of Sweden
Cruise Edition: Sitka, Alaska
Sitka is one of the most beautiful towns in southern Alaska - the wildlife, people, and experiences were all so mesmerizing that we forgot to take the pic of the cresting whale.
Cruise Edition: Glacier Bay, Alaska
Driving rains and winds - experiencing Glacier Bay is not for the faint of heart. But, how many times will you experience a cruise ship navigate floating ice and a narrow channel?
Cruise Edition: Juneau, Alaska
A helicopter ride, an airboat ride, and walking on a glacier. Talk about an amazing adventure in Juneau.
Cruise Edition: Mykonos, Greece
The “infamous” windmills from The Bachelorette, Barbie’s Yacht, Greek history, and the perfect Espresso Martini.
Cruise Edition: Malta
The Game of Thrones filmed here, Napoleon conquered it for 6 days, and I got to see the Blue Grotto Arch before it was destroyed. It’s still one of my favorite countries of all time.
Cruise Edition: Taormina & Mt. Etna in Sicily
Touring a royal hotspot, hiking an active volcano, and seeing one of the most beautiful sunsets in the Ionian Sea. Pinch us!
Cruise Edition: Sorrento & Pompeii
Lots of fresh mozzarella, lemons the size of grapefruits, and learning that Pompeii used to a PORT town with the ocean 3,000km closer!
