Solo Travelers Choice Award
Vantage Deluxe World Travel is a Boston-based, family-owned company that recently celebrated 35 years in business. Vantage has its own fleet of deluxe European river cruise ships,
exclusively chartered small ships, and an exciting adventure brand bringing travelers to some of the most exotic destinations on Earth—including Asia, the Amazon, and Africa (where the company also has its own private tented camps). In 2020, Vantage will celebrate another important milestone with the addition of the all-suite, 5-star m/s Nebu ship on the Nile River; also in 2020, the European river fleet will be enhanced with a re-outfitting that adds on a substantial number of supplement-free
cabins. In 2021, the company will welcome its first small ship oceangoing expedition vessel, the m/s Ocean Explorer, to be joined in 2022 by sister ship the m/s Ocean Odyssey.

A New Project in the Works
Janice and I are in the early phase of developing a new project that we're excited about! Solo Traveler will continue, of course, but we have other interests as well. This project will be about grappling with and learning about issues we don't understand, on just about any topic. As with Solo Traveler, our goal will be to inform, inspire, and advocate, and community participation will be a
very important component. It will take a few months to get off the ground but if you would like to be notified of the launch you can sign up here. Of course, you'll be able to unsubscribe at any
time.
