I have the quote. I asked a few more questions. I will collect the money when it's time and you will even be able to charge it if you want through my accounting business, but, I will have to pass my discount fees on to you. I talked to Ngaire, so she approves and will be the TA of record.
When I get the additional questions answered, I will post the full itinerary. David wants an alternative tour to the Tundra Wilderness Tour. I want info about time from here to there and the train. I know when I post you will have a zillion more questions, so I am trying to think of them first.
It looks like $1075. plus $50.00 = 1125.00 per person( I may be wrong - I have too many numbers swirling in my head) double - with deluxe rooms.
I am home now after a grueling tax season and the stuff is at the office. We have to get 20. It's $425 cheaper than RSSC. Because it will cost me a few dollars to coordinate all of it, I am charging $50.00 per person for my assistant's time to help me put the tour together. I will coordinate everything with them for all of us.
I can't afford to lose any money on this and I am going to make the initial deposit to hold 20 - 30 spaces. They don't include tips, but, I will figure that out with them and then that will be included too. I will host a farewell party or something in Anchorage to end the trip, There is a suite option in Anchorage that is $150 more per person.
It includes pick up at the ship, a guide with us at all times, all luggage handling, breakfast in Denali both mornings, Denali Dinner Theater one night. A stop in Talkeenta, and another one at the Iditerod HQ. Deluxe Train back to Anchorage including dinner and then transfer to the Airport after a night at the Hilton, The all day Tundra Wilderness Tour (and I think lunch goes with that). I should have the rest of my answers by Monday and I will post the whole itinerary. I want a guarantee regarding the hotels we are staying at. Ngaire can add the post cruise to insurance so that will be covered too. We won't share our transportation with others, it's all exclusive to us. We can play games like trivia on board for prizes. Who knows what we will come up with. <img border="0" alt="[beer]" title="" src="graemlins/beer.gif" /> I think this will be so much fun. I am really excited.
