Did you make it in November? If not, you missed a GREAT time with 46 families and a gazillion kids all having a great time. Yes it rained a little bit but it did not damper the Single Parent Travel enthusiasm!

The indoor water park was completed in November and now all the kinks are worked out as well. We have put an order in for good weather and a good time! If you are on the fence, check out the good time we had in November.

Bike N Barge — June 26-July 3, 2010

Bike N Barge In The Land Of Windmills

girl_windmillYes, Amsterdam! There is no better way to see Europe up close than on a hike or a bike and Holland is a perfect place to start.

Our trip will take us round trip from Amsterdam and will include the beautiful, historical cities of Haarlem, Leiden en Delft. You visit the Keukenhof, where you can admire the Dutch tulips in their entire splendor. The windmills in Kinderdijk are a site not to be missed,  and you will get the opportunity to admire the famous delft ware. In addition to this,  we will visit the parliament buildings in the capital of The Hague. And at the end of our trip back in Amsterdam, you will go for a round trip tour of the canals and have the opportunity to visit the Rijksmuseum or the Van Gogh museums.

But this is not your regular escorted bus tour. We will be biking or barging our way! Since the Netherlands is so flat, this LEM LENA MARIA fc-leaflet jan07 72dpi[1]4is a great trip for the casual cyclist–no training regimen required. And if you get tired or just don’t feel like biking, hop on the barge and watch the wonders of Holland pass you.

Amsterdam is typically one of the most affordable countries in terms of flights from the US. Airfare and insurance is not included however, depending on the response, we may consider offering group airfare from JFK in New York.
