Didn't realize you were open for business on both. Guess we better get a bit more serious about these two cruises. River Cruise is a must - just debating about Crystal, the 3 days in St. Petersburg make it very, very, very tempting.

Can you elaborate a bit about the sleeper train, it isn't the Orient Express, is it? That would sell me in a heartbeat!

I didn't realize both were open for booking either. Time to get serious - they are both fantastic opportunities.

Lona Lee - what are your office hours?

Sorry, I answered the right question but to the wrong person Embarassed To talk about the train. I took a "QUICK" look. Not the orient express but what I found is the City Night Line I looked at Rail Europe and the 16 hour ride was leaving in the evening about 7pm from Amsterdam with several stops but you do not have to get off and change trains. You would arrive about 10Am the next morning.
Economy class ]for $123 and he price reflex one person's price, second class and includes one reserved bed per person, in a 6 person compartment bookings must be made at least 5 days before departure date and fare is non-reefundable, non exchangeable.
Freedom Flexible is $239 one bed in 6 bed compartment fare is non-exchangeable and 75% refundable up to 3 days before departure, no refund after this date. Refunds and exchanges are subject to a 5% admin fee per ticket.
Comfort Restricted: is a reserved single compartment $247 one bed private with washbasin in 2nd class. Bookings must be made at least 5 days before departure, non-refundable or non-exchangeable.
Premier First Class is $482, one bed, private, with shower and bathroom, friendly staff serve you welcome drinks and light snacks before bed; with breakfast provided, single reserved compartment first class, table and chairs, welcome drink and breakfast; non-exchangeable and 75% refundable up to 3 days before departure, no refund after this date, refunds and exchanges have 5% admin fee per ticket.

I noticed there is a day train with several changes. The schedules for next July are not out as yet but should be the same.

Sounds mighty tempting - would love to be able to do both segments, so, bear with me as I do some schedule juggling.

I have a question. Say I want to book both the River Cruise AND the Crystal Symphony Baltics cruise, can I somehow apply the Crystal air upgrade deal so I can get Business class air at a decent rate?

Hi, Sophisticated Cat. Yes, you can book the air with Crystal and take advantage of their special as well as extend out 30 days before or after their cruise. Very Happy Plus it is a reasonable rate to fly between Amsterdam and Copenhagen, takes about an hour and about $125 or so on SAS. You can have a hotel in Amsterdam or more nights in Copenhagen. Remember october 31 is the deadline for deposit to get the complimentary one night stay in Copenhagen! I'm excited about your "Cruizin" with us!

Are these prices correct? The Cat B is less than the C and D?? What's the difference in the categories? I think E is smaller and only has a window, but D,C and B are all the same size with B and C having an opening French balcony (window). Is that correct?

Hi, Murphy, Congratulations on being a winner.

Yes, the prices are correct if paid in full before 18Dec. E & D are on the bottom deck with no French Balcony. All these cabin categories are the same size. Location is the only difference.

ALSO I just was told there is no elevator on this ship but there is just a few steps between decks. I'm told the motorcoach trips are not "no walker" friendly. Meaning it is tough sometimes to handle cobblestone and distance on the tours if one has trouble walking.

HappyHappyJoyJoy Just a bump up.. I just wanted to tell you how much I'm enjoying my river boat cruise right now that I'm on. We will be sailing into Amsterdam tomorrow. I've been on this river boat since last Sunday when we got on in Trier, Germany. Sailing on the rivers now during Christmas season has been a different experience from the different summer. I hope you all are really getting pumped up for July 19,2009 River boat cruise group. We will be updating pricing by removing the fuel charges on the river boat after the holidays... MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone.

I know I'm pumped up! I have some Europe and river cruise books on the way. I've contacted an old friend in Germany to set up a rendevzous in Rudesheim. Like I've said...I've always wanted to see Germany. Very excited.

I'm suprised those rivers don't freeze there? Our river is frozen here. Oh yea...we have a blizzard warning for the weekend.
