GREAT SANDHILL CRANE MIGRATION
with Southwest Adventure Tours March 27 – April 2, 2022
Each spring, something magical happens in the heart of the Great Plains. More than half a million sandhill cranes, 80% of the world’s population, converge on Nebraska’s Platte River Valley to rest and refuel before continuing their journey to their Artic and subarctic nesting grounds.
This staging is one of the world’s great wildlife spectacles, on par with the epic migrations of wildebeest and caribou. Join AAA on
this special journey to witness the migration. A sunrise visit to the Crane Trust Nature and Visitor Center will provide for optimal viewing. Perhaps you’ll even see the famed dances of the cranes. There
will be numerous photo opportunities, including vivid action shots,
as we travel to the various feeding grounds throughout the Platte River Valley. Sunset views are also available at the Rowe Sanctuary. Other trip highlights include visits to the Fort Cody Trading Post, Lain Nicholson Audubon Center, Raptor Woodland Refuge, Golden Spike Tower & Visitors Center, Museum of Nebraska Art, Omaha’s Old Market District, and dinner at Gorat’s Steakhouse, a personal favorite of Warren Buffett and an Omaha tradition for more than 70 years.
SOUTHERN CARIBBEAN CRUISE
with Royal Caribbean April 2 – 14, 2022
Celebrate spring’s arrival cruising aboard Royal Caribbean’s popular Enchantment of the Seas®
on a 12-night sailing to the Caribbean. Relax, unwind, and enjoy the ship’s many amenities during three glorious days at sea before arriving in vibrant St. Croix, U.S Virgin
Islands. Known for its world-class dive sites and tropical wildlife this port of call is sure to be one of your favorites. Variety they say is
the spice of life, and nothing could describe the ports of call on this itinerary any better. Each is unique and offers a different flavor of all that is quintessentially Caribbean: Dutch St. Maarten and French St. Martin share an island with distinctive cultures and cuisines along with splendid beaches and eco-friendly activities. St. Kitts’ hills are ripe with eco-adventures; hike a dormant volcano or take a ride
on a sugar plantation’s double decker train; Nevis is a snorkeler’s paradise. Volcanic St. Lucia has natural thermal pools and mud baths, and sparkling beaches. Barbados – ah paradise! What would the Caribbean be without gorgeous beaches? And when it comes to beaches, Barbados is known for some of the best, most diverse beaches in the Caribbean, where you can relax, snorkel with the turtles, or take in some sports action. We’d love to have you join
us on this fabulous cruise, where we’re certain you’ll find a favorite
island escape.
