Tourism is more important today because the baby boomers are
retiring and want to take a cruise to Nassau or fly or travel to
Ireland or
India more than ever before. Studies show that the people under
30 are traveling and cruising more than ever. The
medical benefits of taking a yearly vacation are also causing people like
you
to take their yearly vacation. As a
tourist we are faced with thousands of websites with tours and special deals.
When you want to travel to
Australia you have to decide if you want to use a travel agent or agency or
do everything yourself. The task of doing everything yourself is a daunting one.
There are millions of travel and cruise websites written on the subject. That's
the reason why I've designed Travel with Oliver & Cruise with Bruce to be your 1 Stop Shop for travel
& cruise news, info, etc.
Here there are links to
Worldwide
Tourism Offices,
Federal Agencies and thousands of other sites that are updated often. If you
wish to take packaged tours with recognized tour operators or you've taken one
then you may want to visit the
Review
Section of Travel with Oliver. Included
on this site is a section on
Tour Operators that are recognized as being the best
in the world. New tour operators are being added on a regular basis. You can
also book your vacation package with a tour operator here <Book a Tour>.

travel articles and news clips
on the travel and cruise industry. Compare deals on multiple
airlines,
cruise lines, and
hotels all in
one site. Access travel cruise specials and learn about the latest trends and
destinations that travelers are currently visiting. Read articles and find out
which cruise lines,
airlines and hotels people
are using to book their vacations. Check out the
travel
and cruise specials. Before your trip look at the
current weather
conditions at the airports you will be traveling through and see if there are
any delays. Find out
if there are
travel precautions or alerts for the international destination that you want
to visit. Read about the
travel and cruise
tips which will make your vacation more enjoyable. Are you interested in

1985 trip to:
Germany,
Lichtenstein, France, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands
In 1993, I landed in Zurich, Switzerland for a short stay
at the
5 Star Dolder Grand Hotel and visit to the city of Zurich below before
leaving on a five day tour of the
Alsace Lorraine Region of Western France; a region that has been
heavily influenced by the Germans and French Revolution over the last
couple of centuries. This trip took us to the Mulhouse Train Museum AKA
"Cité du Train", the second day, to a jam packed tour of sites that
include: The Strasbourg Cathedral or Cathedrale Strasbourg where we
saw the Astronomical Clock and the locks around Strasbourg, The Citadelle
de Bitche AKAZitadelle Bitche, Mont St. Odile & Haut
Koenigsbourg Castle both high atop mountains, and to Lembach, France to
see the line of underground concrete bunkers of the Ligne Maginot Ouvrage
Du Four A ChauxAKAMaginot Line or Ligne
Maginot that was named after French Minister of Defense André Maginot.
A month after the death of Princess
Dianna I visited London, England for the first time. London has
become a city that I love and visited several times in the 90's. The five
day tour took us to all of the major sites known to tourists from all over
the world.
We were able to make this whirl wind tour
because we had an unlimited pass to ride on
The Tube or Underground (public subway and transportation system)
quickly and easily. The Tube allowed us to descend deep into the ground of
the Victorian hubs numerous times and ascend five miles across town
minutes later which made everything possible. A similar cab ride took us
an hour one time that week after hours. Because of this we packed plenty
into the short trip including: The British Museum, Buckingham
Palace and Saint James Park, we sat through a session of the
British Parliament and visited the Westminster Cathedral and
shopped at the famous Harrods Department Store. During this trip I
purchased a sketch at
Sotheby's London Auction House on 34-35 New Bond Street and many other
treasures from Liberty's of London, etc.
In June and July of 1998, I spent 23 days
traveling throughout China. Up North we stayed in Beijing & visited the
Forbidden City, saw the Summer Palace, the Ming Tombs and hiked up the
Great Wall of China. Next we flew on China Air to Wuhan to start a 5 day
cruise up the Yangtze River for 260 miles visiting the 3 Gorges and Dam.
Next we flew to Xian where we visited the site of the discovery of the
Terracotta Warriors. No trip to China would be complete unless you visit
the Guilin Region where the mountains look like spikes shooting to the sky
as you cruise the River Li through the mountainous region. Then on to Hong
Kong with visits to Victoria Peak and the fishing village on Hong Kong
Island. The trip wrapped up with a flight into Shanghai China where we
visited the Bund and saw the gardens famous in that area.
