A growing trend for travelers in 2023 was taking river cruises in Europe as a cost-effective way to see and enjoy the continent. Travel experts expect this trend to continue and grow, thus making 2024 likely to be The Year of the River Cruise.

What’s fueling growth in river cruising is the combination of elevated airfares to get to and move around Europe, plus hotel stays that are becoming too pricey. Travel agencies specializing in all-inclusive river cruises understand the inherent value of not having to move from hotel to hotel to enjoy popular spots and the leisurely pace of taking in the sights.

The variety of cruise offerings can include spending weeks cruising on a single vessel throughout France or Central Europe. But river cruising isn’t limited to Europe. Companies now offer cruises in exotic locations like the Amazon River in South America or the Mekong River in Southeast Asia. There are lengthy packages spanning multiple continents where you can start on the Amazon in Peru, go to the Danube in Central Europe, and wind up your travels on the Mekong. All aboard!

Council of Seniors Wants Retirement to Be Worry-Free

Seniors will live with less worry if they can get some additional income. That’s why Council of Seniors has the mission of getting Congress to pass The SAVE Benefits Act. You need this bill because the annual Social Security cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) has shortchanged seniors over a series of years. If we succeed, the amount of $581 will be returned to seniors.

Sign our petition right away and get friends and neighbors to help, too! Let’s make sure Washington politicians understand how many Americans expect action on this bill now.
