Your Invitation from Pete’s Travel

Sail the Danube | Budapest ➜ Vienna ➜ Prague

Hi friends,

Many of you have heard our stories from more than 20 trips to Europe and countless ski adventures — and for years you’ve asked, “When can we travel with you?”

Well, that moment is finally here. We’ve committed to a European river cruise, and we’d love you to join us.

Our own journey started beside the ski slopes in Killington, Vermont — a chance meeting that sparked a lifetime of adventure. You never know where a trip will lead you in life! Now, we’re inviting you to create your own unforgettable memories with us on the Danube.

We’ve visited Prague in winter, fallen in love with its charm, and always dreamed of pairing it with Budapest — a city so many travelers call a must-see. This itinerary does exactly that.

Trip Highlights

• Fly into Budapest with a seamless transfer to the ship
• A full day to explore Budapest
• 6-day Danube cruise aboard the Emerald Sky
• Daily guided excursions to historic and cultural destinations
• Visit Vienna, one of Tommy’s all-time favorite cities
• Optional day trip to Salzburg, setting of the Sound of Music
• Ending in Prague, a medieval city we truly adore!

The Emerald Sky holds only 180 guests, creating an intimate, relaxed experience — nothing like the crowds on large ocean liners. English-speaking guides, a welcoming crew, and exceptional value make this itinerary stand out from the big-name competitors.

Why We Chose This Trip

After years of DIY travel (and a few surprise expenses!), we’ve learned that group travel is simply better — more affordable, more social, and completely stress-free. This cruise brings together some of our favorite European cities on a comfortable, modern river ship.

Important: Space Is Limited

We already have 10 friends traveling with us, and as of today, there are ONLY 10 CABINS LEFT on the ship. With such a small capacity, this sailing will fill quickly.

There’s also a discount for reservations made before December 31, 2025, so booking early secures the best rate.

We’d Love for You to Join Us

Please review the attached details, share them with anyone who may be interested, and consider reserving one of the remaining cabins. Traveling with “FUN” friends always makes the experience even better.

We look forward to sailing the Danube with you,

Tommy & Phyllis
