People travel for different reasons. Oftentimes they seek from their travels what they don’t have back home: better weather, nicer scenery, and the freedom to do what they want. The shared experience of travel brings people together and can strengthen important relationships and bonds.
To expound on the wonderful opportunities and unforgettable experiences of travel (pilgrimage tours and river cruises, in particular), Tessie Henderson, chairperson of Intas Destinations, hosted an intimate brunch to do a product presentation on well-thought-out destinations that Intas has to offer as well as Amawaterways river cruises in Europe, Asia and Africa.

When people find themselves at a crossroads in their lives, undergoing a change in their life’s direction or relationship, they seek an experience that can provide the opportunity to step out of the busyness of their lives and seek a place of quiet and reflection.
Pilgrimage tours offer the chance to walk through those issues, whatever they might be. Others may be in search of a deeper spirituality, healing and forgiveness. However, pilgrimage tours can also be a highly sociable activity, allowing travelers to meet new people, enjoy their company, and to reconnect with the natural world.

Another travel experience that is fast becoming very popular — among seasoned travelers and first-time cruisers — is river cruising. With immersive itineraries that include discovering local cultures and sights, stunning city skylines and landscapes, unexpected delights, as well as lovely accommodations, river cruises are the perfect antidote to the stress of travel. And what better way to do so than with Amawaterways, voted the Best River Cruise Line in 2018.
