Interlude Tours: Luxury Travel from Indianapolis to Willemstad, Netherlands Antilles

For the first day of 2010, how would you like to be far from the snow and cold of Indiana, enjoying a warm sun and a refreshing sea breeze while you clink cheers! to the New Year with your significant other? If that sounds good, then we have just the cruise for you:

Southern Caribbean New Year’s Cruise
December 26, 2009 – January 2, 2010 (7 days)
Departing from and returning to: Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
Ports of call:
• Half Moon Cay, Bahamas
• Oranjestad, Aruba
• Willemstad, Netherlands Antilles

Located on the island of Curacao in the Netherlands Antilles, Willemstad is one of the most charming and interesting cities in all of the Southern Caribbean. According to Wikipedia,

Willemstad is the territorial capital of the Netherlands Antilles and has an estimated population of 125,000.  The city center, with its peculiar architecture and beautiful harbour entry, has been made a UNESCO world heritage site. The city is a tourist destination and contains several casinos.

The UNESCO World Heritage website has the following to say:

The people of the Netherlands established a trading settlement at a fine natural harbour on the Caribbean island of Curaçao in 1634. The Historic Area of Willemstad is a European colonial ensemble in the Caribbean of outstanding value and integrity, which illustrates the organic growth of a multicultural community over three centuries and preserves to a high degree significant elements of the many strands that came together to create it.

It’s truly a place that you will never forget! But Willemstad is just one of three interesting ports of call on this amazing cruise. Other things about this cruise that we really like:

• It takes you to places in the far southern part of the Caribbean to which usually only longer cruises go.
• The dates make it a very convenient cruise to “sneak into” your schedule.
• The ship is the MS Eurodam of the Holland America Line, which, since its maiden voyage was in July 2008, is very fresh and new and modern indeed.

You are going to love this cruise! Please call us today to make your reservation and arrange air travel from Indianapolis, where we are based, or from any location in the United States or Canada.
