This review is from: Reader's Digest - Scenic Cruises of the World (DVD)

This beautifully shot and narrated DVD takes you from Nova Scotia to the Rhine River castles, and to the mysteries of Easter Island. We have traveled to many of these places and this DVD urges us to travel even more. For the armchair adventurer to the "on the go" adventurer, this DVD is a winner.

These DVDs are awesome with some of the mosst amazing scenic cruises in the world. If I could, I would like to just take off a year and go on each cruise. However, I will get to each one sooner or later in my lifetime. You just can't imagine how beautiful these places are until you watch these DVDs. Very inspiring for someone who wants to travel the world.

VERY GOOD BOOK IF YOU ARE CRUISING THE DIFFERENT ISLANDS IN HAWAII. THE ONLY THING LAKING WAS MAPS FOR DRIVING TOURS, OTHERWISE VERY COMPLETE AND EASY TO FOLLOW.
