1 Rhine Danube Rhône & Saône a taste of europe 201 All-Inclusive River Cruise Collection david morris i n t e r n a t i o n a l Introducing A-Rosa s cruise loyalty program, which rewards our past guests with extra savings!

2 David Morris International & A-Rosa Cruises...an introduction. David Morris International (DMI) is proud to represent, market & manage A-ROSA Cruises throughout the U.S., Canada and Australia. With more than 30 years Executive level experience working in the luxury cruise industry, DMI introduced A-ROSA s European river vessels in 2013 to the North American market. A-ROSA was founded in 2000 in Germany and operates twelve river vessels throughout Europe. Currently, three of those vessels are marketed exclusively by DMI, which has raised the bar on the definition of all-inclusive European river cruising. Distinguishing itself from the competition, A-ROSA continues to offer their guests a true escape from the ordinary. Why a river cruise vacation? SEE THE HEART OF EACH COUNTRY Unlike cruise ships that sail around the shores of Europe, river cruises take you directly into the villages, towns and cities along the interior rivers to the birthplaces of many countries. No need to wait for a transfer as most ports you will walk right off the vessel and into the culture, history, sites and tastes waiting for you just a few steps away. RELAX, UNPACK AND MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME Hotel stays require you unpack and pack every time you want to see a new location, never allowing you to really relax with the comforts that await you on a river cruise. Unpack and pack once and visit a new destination every day without the usual upheaval of changing hotels. You may wake up in a medieval village, a city world renowned for the arts or perhaps an epicurean s dream. Every morning unveils a new place to explore & treasured experiences yet to be revealed. SENSITIVE TO MOTION? The rivers of Europe are more like cruising a placid lake, free of rolling and pitching waves. It is the perfect solution for those who find car, bus or ocean motion makes them queasy and unable to enjoy their valuable vacation time. UNCROWDED AND UNCOMPLICATED A-ROSA s vessels carry an average of only 175 guests, thereby eliminating long lines to embark and disembark, staff knows your name by the second day and there s always a place to sit. The ambiance onboard is hassle-free, casual and friendly. On the following pages you ll see quotes from actual guests who had the pleasure of experiencing A-Rosa by David Morris International during its inaugural year, Enjoy the commentary...we did!

12 10 It s up on deck that you realize just how magical a river cruise can be. All that is so beautiful seems just an arm s length away!

13 sundeck : perfect for sightseeing, activities & fun! A-Rosa s fleet is equipped with some of the largest pools sailing European rivers. the sun deck - you ll never want to come back inside! Time on the sun deck can be measured in sunsets, laps in the pool, glasses of wine or the number of new friends you ve made. But for most, time just stands still as you take in Europe s fabled towns and picturesque countryside from your chaise lounge. Then again, time may fly during an exciting shuffleboard or giant chess game or even practice your putting game. What really matters is that you take all the time in the world to do whatever you want. The motto topside on the sun deck is anything is possible, but nothing is required.just enjoy. 11 The transit through the numerous locks was amazing!

14 A-Rosa s active lifestyle hands down the best river cruise biking program! Biking through the European countryside was one of my dreams come true!

15 ...boredom is not an option! A-Rosa s open bar policy leaves you open to new friends! an active lifestyle awaits you on A-ROSA - embrace the possibilities By escaping the ordinary you release yourself from that which you expect and let life show you all it has to offer. A-ROSA is the perfect venue for living life to its fullest, providing an environment which lets you decide just how adventurous or active you want to be. Bike through ancient Roman towns or hike Germany s Black Forest. Kayak near peaceful shores, perhaps with swans, geese and ducks or accompany the chef as he/she shops the local markets. Whatever you choose to do, you will know that you didn t just take a tour you experienced Europe to the fullest. I ll be quick to rebuke anyone that says river cruises can be boring. Not on A-Rosa! 13

16 The South of France Rhône & Saône 201 SAÔNE RHÔNE Chalon-sur-Saône Tournus Mâcon Lyon La Voulte RHÔNE FRANCE Viviers Châteauneuf-du-Pape Avignon Arles MEDITERRANEAN The Burgundy and Provence regions of France are all that you ve heard of and much more.

You will delight in the wine growing regions of Beaujolais, Burgundy and Chateauneuf du Pape.

18 The word Danube inevitably conjures up the classical melody by Johann Strauss II, the Blue Danube; it s just inescapable! However the smooth flow of the notes is soon second fiddle to the mesmerizing places you will see on A-ROSA s Danube River cruise. With many UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Danube sailings fill your senses with beauty, history, culture and almost a reverence of what you see all around you. Plus, it is a much sought after destination for those connoisseurs and epicureans amongst us. Highlights are too many to include all, but those that stand out are the spectacular Melk Abbey, the small train ride up the hill to see the Esztergom Basilica, the historical city center of Bratislava where cars are forbidden to operate, an evening concert in Vienna s Hofburg, the old Residence in the heart of the city, the world-famous Lipizzaner horses at Vienna s Spanish Riding School or a visit to the City of Mozart the always stunning Salzburg.
