Burt Wolf Cruises

Wednesday, March 18, 2009

There's still time to book a river cruise with travel, culinary and cultural journalist, Burt Wolf to benefit Public Broadcasting. For each booking made through Atlas Cruises & Tours, a significant donation will be made to help support the Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) in your community, so even though you are booking online, the funds are distributed locally.

Burt Wolf will accompany all 9 guaranteed departures, warmly sharing his in-depth knowledge of each intriguing port, and its culture and customs. All boats in Avalon Waterways' fleet average just two years in age and offer the largest staterooms of any European river cruise operator. The fleet varies from 50 to 80 cabins per ship, each with an English-speaking crew.

With Wolf actively hosting each departure, you'll have lively discussions of the history, food and drink and customs of the particular region. On shore, guests will have the opportunity to visit Wolf's favorite places, have a beer or a glass of wine with friends who own unusual pubs and famous vineyards, taste the regional delicacies and generally "hang out" with people who have been in his television programs.

Burt is the ultimate host....he is literally with guests 24/7, sharing his insider knowledge of each destination. The many extras that he treat his guests to - the chocolates, cheese, beers and wines and much more are valued at more than $2,000 per person.
