Savvy Travelers to Meet February 9 and 23

Mayflower Tours and Norwegian Cruises

There will be two presentations in February. Join us in the San Tan Ballroom of the Cottonwood Country Club on Feb. 9 at 6:30 p.m. Mayflower Cruises & Tours will have a special presentation on their unique tours in the USA and Europe. There will be great, unique itineraries, many with free air. Also, Mayflower has luxury yachts that sail in the Mediterranean and Adriatic Coast. In addition, they are available for a group to charter. This may be something the Savvy Travelers are looking to do for 2024 or 2025. This will be the first time Mayflower has presented in Sun Lakes.

Norwegian Cruise Lines is hosting a cruise night on Feb. 23 in the Saguaro Room of the Cottonwood Country Club at 6:30 p.m. Norwegian will be launching the newest ship, the “Viva,” at the end of August. We Sun Lakers have luckily been given nine balcony staterooms for this sailing. We have filled three. Think about joining us on this fun adventure with five stops in Spain (Ibiza, Seville, Malaga, Palma Majorca, and Barcelona), France, and Italy.

We will have two days of tours in Rome as an option and two days in Lisbon. These are options!

We will have brochures, door prizes, refreshments, and much more at each meeting!
