I'm incredibly proud and excited to announce a special partnership with Soaring Spirits International and AMAWaterways! Together, we're thrilled to offer an exclusive river cruise experience to the organization's members, their families, and friends (because, truly, you are all friends!). We currently have two fantastic "Paris & Normandy" cruise dates available: August 9 - 16, 2025, which is our dedicated Celebration of Wellness sailing, and another classic Paris & Normandy itinerary from October 25 - November 1, 2025. Please reach out to me directly if either of these dates works for you, as I'd love to help you plan your journey.
Join Soaring Spirits International for an unforgettable experience on the stunning Seine River!
Imagine yourself gliding along the picturesque Seine, immersing yourself in the timeless beauty and rich history of Northern France. This isn't just any cruise; it's a unique opportunity to nourish your mind, body, and soul while exploring iconic destinations.
Your adventure begins in Paris, where vibrant energy and iconic landmarks await. From there, journey into the heart of Normandy, a region brimming with inspiration. Wander through Monet’s Gardens in Giverny, a living masterpiece. Discover the charming harbor town of Honfleur, witness Joan of Arc's martyrdom site, and reflect at the unforgettable D-Day beaches of WWII. Relive royal grandeur at Château de Bizy, often called “the Versailles of Normandy.”
The August 9 - 16, 2025, cruise is our special "Celebration of Wellness" departure, meticulously designed to invigorate you from the inside out. Alongside award-winning dining (with complimentary wine, beer, and soft drinks), elegant staterooms with "French balcony" windows, and diverse shore excursions, you'll enjoy a wealth of wellness-focused enhancements. Engage in activities like Champagne Yoga, core strengthening, circuit training, and guided runs. Savor specially curated healthy menus, enjoy a morning juice bar, and gain insights from onboard Wellness Talks led by two dedicated Wellness Hosts. Expect delightful surprises throughout your journey!
Your Soaring Spirits group host for the August 9th "Celebration of Wellness" cruise will be the active and engaging Tavona Givens. For the October 25th Paris & Normandy departure, we are delighted to announce that Teresa Beshwate will be your Soaring Spirits host. While local guides will lead captivating excursions on both cruises, your dedicated host will organize exclusive meet-ups and activities, fostering connections within the Soaring Spirits community. These cruises are open to everyone – widowed or not, friends and family are welcome!
Soaring Spirits International (www.soaringspirits.org) is a leading non-profit organization providing peer support and resources to widowed people worldwide. By joining either of these special cruises, you'll contribute to a meaningful cause. For every stateroom booked, both AMAWaterways and Seymour & Associates Travel will make a direct donation to Soaring Spirits International, furthering their vital work.
We've secured special group pricing for these incredible journeys, offering significant savings over published AMAWaterways rates! This exclusive offer, combined with a waived solo supplement, only available through June 30, 2025, on most categories, makes this an unparalleled value. Please note that certain categories are selling out quickly due to high demand. Optional pre-cruise Paris land packages are also available to extend your French immersion.
This exclusive pricing is not available directly through AMAWaterways! Contact Seymour & Associates Travel to book your spot. We can assist with every aspect of your trip—cruise, air, insurance, and any pre- or post-cruise arrangements.
Don't miss this incredible opportunity to celebrate wellness, explore magnificent landscapes, and create lasting memories. Space is limited, so secure your spot today!
