Hi From Rick: Best Destinations for 2008

Best Destinations 2008 Newsletter
Free for all: Order my latest newsletter via this month's Travel News.

Dear Traveler,

Imagine if you and I were travel partners...In Prague, drinking Europe's best beer while pounding the table to the jitterbug beat of a local tavern band. On a Greek isle, developing a taste for ouzo and plush orange sunsets. On the windswept Irish coast, getting a colorful dose of history from a local with the gift of gab. And in Bosnia, being swept up in a swirl of partying teenagers whose parents were dodging each others' bullets only a generation ago.

These are just a few of the almost accidental experiences that I enjoyed in the last year — now collected in our hot-off-the-press, 64-page "Best Destinations 2008" printed newsletter.

Worried about the dollar? It may be down this year, but you shouldn't be. Our 2008 edition of Best Destinations includes "Take It Back!" Twenty budget tips for recouping that 20% the euro has taken from your dollar in the last year...while having a more rewarding trip at the same time.

See this month's Travel News to get your free copy of Best Destinations 2008. While you wait for the mailman to arrive, we've got a great lineup of online getaways for you this month, from Ireland's Ring of Kerry, to offbeat Europe, to Poland's communostalgic milk bars, to our letter of the month, to a day in the life of...me. And more.

Enjoy the read, and thanks for tagging along with us.

Happy travels!

Rick Steves
