Profile

What is your favorite place in Europe so far?: Leiden, Holland although we also enjoyed Luxembourg.

Where would you most like to go next?: Spain

Do you have any special interests or hobbies that you follow when you travel?: museums and architecture

What is the funniest thing that happened to you on an Untour?: We had been traveling on the trains in Holland when we took an older train (one with individual compartments). At our stop the doors did not open and since they were painted red (meaning danger or do not touch around here) we didn't attempt to open them. Consequently, we missed our stop. When we went back to our compartment two young Dutch helped us, but laughed the whole time.

Which Untours have you already done?: Holland

What advice would you give others considering an Untour?: Go as often as you can.

What is your favorite Untour? (so far): Holland

HOLLAND, Tuesday, August 14, 2007 It’s hard to know where to start. We had wanted to go to Holland on an Untour for many years, and we weren’t disappointed. After leaving Orlando at 5:25 p.m. we arrived at London Gatwick Airport to change planes to Amsterdam Schiphol Airport arriving at 11:40 a.m. We were met at the “Meeting Place” by our taxi driver who delivered us (after a little confusion as to the address) to our apartment at Hogewoerd 144 in Leiden.

The land part of our tour was the part with so many lines and waiting. You can either do your own thing or socialize while on the ship. And the excursions will keep you busy. Some of them allow exploring on your own; others lock you in time wise. Sometimes, you can do alternative excursions on your own. In Juneau, while my husband went flight fly fishing, I did an excursion on my own rather than taking one offered by the ship. Also, if you aren't please with your dinner tablemates, there are usually other dining alternatives. We found that going to the more informal, self serve dining room worked better for us in terms of timing with excursions and only ate dinner in the formal dining room the first and last night. The food was the same as the formal dining room in the informal one, there was more of a choice, we didn't have to worry about dressing after a full day on shore, and we could sit wherever we wanted.

Let us know, when you get back, if you need any help
