And that reminds me, time is quickly running out on being able to book this cruise at the Group Discounted rates I have. Space is being pulled in a matter of days and then after that, the price of the cruise portion will go up to the Full Tariff Rate. Cabins will still be available, but the prices will no longer be stable and some of the group amenities may not be offered. Please send me an email at Cathy.u@travelstoreusa.com or call me at 800-955-7447 ext. 19812 if you want to go There and Back Again.
Given the number of artistic people who love The Lord of the Rings it’s no surprise that a sketching tour of New Zealand should prove popular. Organized by regular LOTR tour providers Red Carpet and LOTR artist Daniel Reeve, the tours will take people around the film locations. A master watercolourist, mapmaker and calligrapher for LOTR, Narnia, King Kong and many other films, Daniel will share his skills with the October tour, leading workshops and demonstrations on the amazing landscapes used in the film. Places still remain for the sketching tour, which runs from 13-25 October. Find out More.

But the cruise line now needs some of the space back in order to follow through with some of their own promotions. This is a standard move in the cruise industry, and I am working with Celebrity Cruises to see how much space I can still hold, and for how long.
If you have been on the fence about whether or not you would like to go on the Cruise to Middle-earth in November of this year, your time is running out!. I’ve been able to set aside a few cabins in each category, but only a very few. So strike while the iron is hot, or while I still have cabins to sell to Ringers of intelligence to go on this journey, quest, thing.

If you have a spare couple of weeks to take a tour of New Zealand next October, Red Carpet Tours has setup a wonderful tour that includes Daniel Reeve.
