We don't normally devote an entire blog to touting a cruise that might interest you, but today we have one that's too good to pass up.
It's a Caribbean cruise for seven days but here are the highlights that make it unique:
• $500 per person for an inside room (double occupancy of course)
• $1,100 per person for a balcony
• Seven bottles of wine per stateroom, one each from seven "award-winning" wineries
• Nightly entertainment by Kenny Loggins, Three Dog Night and others
• Wine and culinary seminars
If you're happy with an inside room, that's $72 per day per person. It's on Radiance of the Seas and all the rooms are half-price, or 2-for-1 if you prefer. The perks are what makes it special.
How can this happen?
You won't find this cruise listed on Royal Caribbean's website. It was bought, or filled, by an agency called Flying Dutchmen Travel in Santa Rosa (wine country) and/or a reputable re-seller known as Travel Zoo.
That's where you go to book it…www.travelzoo.com.
Oh yes, there's a few other facts you'll need in making your decision…
• The departure date is November 9.
• The ship leaves from Tampa.
• The cruise has to be booked by August 17th.
And by the way, Radiance of the Seas recently underwent a $30 million upgrade.
