LIVE from Girona, Spain. Kelly Jo McGee over at USTravel is right. Europe is HOT! Why? Fares are down. Crowds are thinned out. It’s a buyers market and that means there are DEALS. Below is a photo of a small Spanish town in the Pyrenees where we went hiking yesterday with our friends at Spanish Trails.
First remember you can fly nonstop from Anchorage or Fairbanks to Frankfurt on Condor Air.
PARIS, BORDEAUX, LOURDES and MONACO. Take this wine tour, plus a side trip to Lourdes. Start your trip with two nights in Paris and enjoy a welcome dinner at a local restaurant. A guided sightseeing tour includes a visit to Notre Dame Cathedral and an ascent to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. Then continue by high-speed “TGV” train to Bordeaux and enjoy an excursion to St. Emilion for a tour of the most famous wine region of France plus a wine tasting (YUM!). Travel via Biarritz to Lourdes, where two nights offer enough time for a guided walking tour and to follow the pilgrims to St. Bernadette’s Grotto. Stop in the medieval walled “Bastide” city of Carcassonne on your way to Nîmes. In Nîmes, enjoy a walking tour. Visit Pont du Gard, the 2,000-year-old Roman Aqueduct, and Avignon. Also stop in famous Aix-en-Provence and Cannes before arriving at your beachfront hotel in Monte Carlo in the Principality of Monaco for two nights.
COSTA RICA. Kelly Jo really likes Costa Rica, too. Check out the Costa Rica
The Coast To Coast Adventure! Mountain Biking, Hiking and Whitewater Rafting. This trip is for the truly adventurous. From the Pacific coast to the Atlantic shores of Costa Rica, you will bike, hike and raft in one adventure-filled expedition. From the picturesque cliffs and beaches of Manuel Antonio, you will challenge the Continental Divide! Then, drift peacefully to the Atlantic shores.
