Long time Cruise Express clients Loraine and John are currently in Jordan having recently enjoyed a fabulous cruise with Viking in Egypt and have shared some fantastic photos with us.

“Egypt & Jordan – our advice – you have to love ruins & really want see them – the sand & heat that accompany them can be challenging. In saying that, we had one of the best time of our lives and Viking were a big part of that!

It was our first Viking Cruise and we are now converts….. they go that extra mile & take care of EVERYTHING (especially the luggage)…. “Stress Free Travelling”. And, of course, Cruise Express take the stress out of the rest – from booking to the welcome home!”

We used Cruise Express to plan and book our recent trip to Europe.

With the help of Malcolm, we were able to cruise the Mediterranean for 2 weeks on the new and stunning, Sun Princess, followed by another 2 amazing weeks traveling through Italy and Germany reaching a crescendo at The German Moto GP. Using his wealth of knowledge and experience Malcolm had us staying in some of the nicest hotels, travelling between cities faultlessly on trains and booked on tours of places that you can’t just turn up to, like The Colleseum.

Nothing was too much trouble. We can’t thank Malcolm and the Team at Cruise Express enough for helping us achieve what has so far become our trip of a lifetime. We are already looking to plan our next trip and a call to Malcolm will be our first stop. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

We had an amazing time on the NSW northern coast holiday. Tina, Helen and Ben were very helpful and always smiling as our tour guides.

They organised everything down to the fine details and helped Sue with her dietary requirements at all times. Both the accommodation and the food were excellent.

This was our first time travelling with Cruise Express and if our health allows it will not be the last. We will be telling our family and friends how excellent the experience was.

Thanks again for a wonderful holiday.

Kind Regards,

My name is Janelle and I am 82 and my husband George is 96. The Panama Canal has been on my husband’s ‘bucket list’ for quite a while and so we mentioned it to Tina at Cruise Express.

Tina said ‘leave it with me”. Tina came back with this amazing 18 Day Viking cruise, departing from Los Angeles and finishing at Ft. Lauderdale.

Naturally we and our family were quite apprehensive about us taking on such an expedition (because of our ages and also just going by ourselves) so far away.

Well we have just returned safe, well and happy. I attribute most of the success of this trip to Tina. Tina crossed every ‘t’ and dotted every ‘i’ with everything working out so smoothly, with hotels, transfers and the cruise itself.

Having never travelled with Viking before, all I can say is that this cruise surpasses any other cruise we have ever travelled with before.

We placed all our confidence in Tina and were richly rewarded.

The cruise, the ports and the passengers made this a lifetime trip to remember.

Many thanks again for making this possible.

We have just returned from Harbour City Limited. The trip was standout, the accommodation was fabulous, the food was sensational as was the service at the Obar in Sydney with a view to die for being a revolving restaurant.

The XPT ( haven’t been on that before ) was terrific. The Grace Hotel is a lovely hotel with classic features. We loved Port Macquarie and Rydges was terrific both in accommodation, location and the dinner they did for us, the food was excellent.

The Dolphin lunch cruise we did was most enjoyable and we picked up some dolphins for a free ride as well ( they ride in the pressure wave of the boat) and there were plenty having a frolic around the boat as well, so it fulfilled our hopes of seeing dolphins.

The accommodation at  Pacific Bay Resort was very nice and the food was excellent for the dinner we had there.  The Solar Train ride at Byron Bay was on an old rail motor converted to Solar power and took us into the main centre of Byron Bay. Lunch at the North Bryon Bay Hotel was also very nice and generous.

Our return to Brisbane was expected to be around 5-30pm, but we made excellent time back from Byron Bay, so we arrived around 4-00-4-30pm or so. All in all,  it went off without any hitches, and the group of people we travelled with on the tour were great.

Richard and Ben are to be congratulated on the wonderful itinerary of places of interest and all the arrangements for accommodation and meals.

The rail trip on the 621/721 heritage rail motor was cancelled by the Paterson Rail Motor Society ( not their fault, just a technicality that couldn’t be fixed in time for the tour) so Richard and Ben did a fantastic job of making alternative arrangements to make the trip most enjoyable.

Richard was very gracious in advising us all that Ben had devised and put the trip together. Naturally, Richard played a big part in it too.

You are in very safe hands with these guys, they really look after their clients with care and professionalism and make sure at every stop and departure everyone is accounted for.

Once again Richard and Ben, thanks for a very enjoyable and memorable trip. Almost forgot, thanks for the great piccies you took and posted on line.

Cheers and best wishes,
