Cruising Ocean and River

Cruising

Ocean and River Cruising are great ways to explore the world around you.
Wake up each morning open your balcony door
and see a new and exciting destination each day.

I have sailed on many ships over the past 30 years,
37 and counting, from small mooring yachts in the British Virgins,
Large to Mega cruise liners, luxury yachts, to tall ships and river cruises.

My favorite way to cruise is small ship luxury. It's time to be treated like royalty.

The Créme de la Créme
Regent Seven Seas is one of the top most Inclusive luxury cruise lines out there.
Uniworld River Cruises offers the best of the best in River Cruising.
Other amazing cruise lines are
Silversea, Tauck River Cruises and Windstar, as well as Oceania & Seabourn
I highly recommend all of the above cruise lines.

WHY BOOK WITH POINT OF DEPARTURE?
Booking your cruise with us vs direct. We can offer exclusive promotions with discounts or shipboard credits above what the cruise lines are offering,
as well as Sue's Loyal Client discounts for my repeat clients.
We compare cruise lines promotions to find the best offer for you. We look closely into each "free" offer such as airfare and pre and post cruise hotel stays. Many times we can find a lower airfare or hotel for you saving you thousands on business class airfare. Unless its an amazing offer like Regent with Free Business Class Air offered on International cruises.

ALL WRAPPED UP
We take care of all details, flights, transfers, pre and post hotel stays as well as optional tours and excursions not offered by the cruise lines. All wrapped up in your final itinerary documents complete with maps and travel books as well as special gifts designed to make your adventures that much more amazing.

RAVE REVIEWS
My clients love what I do for them and keep coming back year after year.
I appreciate the business and love to live vicariously through each
and every adventure that I plan.
I look forward to assisting you on your next journey.
By air, sea, land, or train -
every adventure starts at The POINT OF DEPARTURE.
