Jill’s Guide To Rivers Part Deux

 

My second installment on River Cruising, for people who would like to try something new &  looking for help and information. I am pleased to help. Here are some  brief details of some of the Tour Operators I deal with on a regular basis, along with transport options Rail, Flight, Coach there is something for everyone.

Maybe you dont like flying or due to health you are not able to fly, well all is not lost you can opt for Coach or Rail – the journey is longer but imagine all the stunning scenery you will discover along the way..
