Cover image: Medieval Rheinstein Castle in the Rhine Valley near Rudesheim oin us aboard the MS Lafayette for a six night journey that promises to be a scenic treat as we cruise along four of Europe’s rivers between Luxembourg Jand Strasbourg. We have planned our voyages for the month of June as it is a wonderful time to explore Europe by river, the weather is warm, the evenings become longer, and the popular towns and cities are not yet busy with tourists. Our river odyssey begins in Saarbrucken on the River Saar and we will sail through unspoilt landscapes, past fascinating small towns towards Bernkastel. From here we continue along the beautiful Moselle River travelling through this historic region first cultivated by the Romans. The river’s intricate and picturesque path meanders between steeply terraced vineyards and hills with riverbanks home to attractive towns and villages. At Koblenz we reach the Rhine and turn towards Rudesheim – here the River Rhine shows her unique beauty; high on the hills are legendary castles, sunlit vineyards and chocolate box villages scattered along both of its banks. Last, but not least, we journey along the River Neckar, one of Germany’s most idyllic, cruising past tiny villages and majestic castles such as Neckargemund, Neckarsteinach and Hirschhorn.

Crossing over the Grand Duchess Charlotte Bridge, which connects the city centre with the financial district and the European institutions, is breath-taking: the 74-metre high steel construction gives stunning views of the Philharmonie and the Mudam Museum of Modern Art – two outstanding architectural landmarks. While walking you are listening to your favourite podcasts via a Wi-Fi connection that is super stable: Luxembourg’s cutting edge IT infrastructure ensures broadband Internet everywhere. You check your account balance on your mobile banking app: you have just received your paycheck. You’re happy to know that you get to keep more of your gross income than you would for instance in the UK, Ireland, France, Belgium… Yet, a significant amount is nonetheless dedicated to social security and health insurance: your employer and the state both make contributions equalling what was deducted from your earnings, hence you split the burden three ways.

    Luxembourg POST-RIVERBOAT VACATION STRETCHERS OCTOBER 2021 USA & CANADA: 800-631-6277 x1 | INTERNATIONAL: 415-962-5700 x1 Luxembourg Welcome to Luxembourg! Luxembourg is a small European country, surrounded by Belgium, France, and Germany, with an advanced economy. It’s mostly rural—with the dense Ardennes forest and nature parks in the north, rocky gorges of the Mullerthal region in the east, and the Moselle river valley in the southeast—but its capital city is famed for its fortified medieval old town perched on sheer cliffs. Luxembourg’s culture, people, and languages are highly intertwined with those of its neighbors, France and Germany, as evidenced by its three official languages: French, German, and Luxembourgish. The repeated invasions by Germany, especially during World War II, resulted in the country’s strong will to serve as a mediator between France and Germany and also helped lead to the foundation of the European Union. The old quarters and fortifications in the City of Luxembourg were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994 due to the exceptional preservation of the vast fortifications and the old city. With so much history and culture to experience, extending your stay in Luxembourg with Olivia is an opportunity you won’t want to miss! 1-NIGHT LUXEMBOURG VACATION STRETCHER (OCTOBER 11-12, 2021) $529 PP DOUBLE OCCUPANCY— TRADITIONAL ROOM $699 PP SINGLE OCCUPANCY— TRADITIONAL ROOM INCLUDED • 1-night stay at The Royal Luxembourg Hotel (October 11-12) • Hotel check-in is at 1 pm on October 11; checkout is at 12 pm on
