Pam Dixon
St. Anne's Service Centre
Areas of expertise: Budapest,
Florence, London, Paris, Prague, Rome,
Venice and Vienna.
Types of transportation: Air-and-hotel
packages, motorcoach tours, and ocean
and river cruises.
Best Europe memory: My recent Insight Vacations' Easy Pace
Budapest, Vienna and Prague motorcoach holiday. All the cities
are rich in history and culture, but Budapest was my favourite. The
people were amazing, and I had the best goulash and palacsinta.

Matthew Isles
McPhillips Service Centre
Areas of expertise: London and Scotland.
Types of transportation: Air-and-hotel
packages, motorcoach tours, rail travel
and river cruises.
Best Europe memory: I recently went on
a Monograms tour of Great Britain. We
saw the iconic London sights, such as Big Ben. But I was most excited
to see the London Dungeons and the medieval torture devices!

Rosemarie Herscovitch
McPhillips Service Centre
Areas of expertise: Amsterdam, Buda-
pest, Croatia, Germany, Istanbul, Lon-
don, Paris, Prague, Slovenia and Vienna.
Types of transportation: Air-and-hotel
packages, driving, motorcoach tours,
and ocean and river cruises.
Expert tip: Buckingham Palace opens its doors to the public for
six weeks annually when the Queen is away on summer holiday.
It's a rare opportunity to catch a glimpse inside and to see artwork
that rivals that found in the great museums of Europe.

Kim Jollie
Empress Service Centre
Areas of expertise: Budapest, France,
Germany, Italy and Prague.
Types of transportation: Motorcoach
tours and river cruises.
Expert tip: River cruising is a wonder-
ful way to experience Europe. With
the convenience of unpacking once and the chance to visit sev-
eral spots while docking near a city, there is nothing better.

Novella Lander
St. Anne's Service Centre
Areas of expertise: Austria, England,
Germany, Hungary and Italy.
Types of transportation: Air-and-hotel
packages, customized holidays (including
self-drive or bus), rail travel, motorcoach
tours and river cruises.
Best Europe memory: When you travel as a group, on a motor-
coach tour, you aren't always with the same people 24/7. When I
was on my Italy tour, we had free time, which I used to take the
ferry to Naples to walk the streets and visit the shops – alone.

Dorothy McLeod
Empress Service Centre
Areas of expertise: Croatia, France,
Greece, Italy and Poland.
Types of transportation: Air-and-hotel
packages, motorcoach tours, and ocean
and river cruises.
Expert tip: Having visited many coun-
tries, Italy continues to be my favourite. It's cliché, but it truly has
something for everyone: art, architecture and delicious food.
