CHINA YANGTZE with optional Bali extension

15 day tour/cruise - April 20, 2017 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

The Great Wall of China

Why China Should Be Your First Choice! We have the BEST Tour to China!!!! We include both the Li River and the Yangtze River, we visit more cities, we stay in 5-star luxury hotels throughout, we have the best 5-star ship, we fly instead of drive inside China and we have the best educator – Dr. S. Michael Wilcox during your Yangtze Cruise!!!

If you have not been to China, we recommend you make it your number one priority! Let us try and tell you in a few words why China is the best tour anywhere in the world. A cruise on the Yangtze is more beautiful than cruising the Inside Passage of Alaska. The 60,000 life size stone carvings of Dazu (carved by monks over thousands of years), is a sight to behold. The Li River’s staggering beauty will be one of your most favorite touring days. You will marvel as you explore the 9 mile city wall of Xi’an with it’s draw bridges and moats still intact. Climbing the Great Wall creates memories for a lifetime. The Chinese Cultural Village can be compared to the beautiful Polynesian Cultural Center in Oahu. Add the experience of seeing the Terra-cotta Warriors, Summer Palace, Forbidden City, Hong Kong, Beijing and so much more – all in a country that is friendly and loving to Americans. You will live and cruise in 5-star luxury throughout the tour. Please believe us on this one. THIS SHOULD BE YOUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY!!!

“We Don ’ t Sen d You, We Ta ke You! ”

Major Addition To Our China Tour Our special tour to China is not a copy of other tour companies’ tours. Our tour was designed by Jim and Carol Tyndall (the owners of Fun For Less Tours) after many weeks of exploration in China. Their goal was to make sure you see the best of the best that China has to offer. That is why they included in their tour both the Li River and the Yangtze River - most tour companies make you chose a tour that includes the Li River OR the Yangtze, but rarely if ever, offer a tour that would include both! On a recent three week exploration of new areas of China they had not visited, the owners found an area that was so fantastic they had to add it to our tour!

Introducing OUR BEST addition ever! Zhangjiajie National Forest

In 2016 we added an optional extension to Zhangjiajie onto our China tour. China is Jim and Carol’s favorite place to visit in the world. They have been there more than 20 times with groups and on their own explorations. They were amazed at the unique beauty of the little known Zhangjiajie National Forest. They spent three days exploring Zhangjiajie and during that time they saw plenty of Chinese tourists, but never saw any European or American tourists. Zhangjiajie is now their favorite place in China! They had to find a way to add it to our already special China Tour. If you saw the movie Avatar, the stunningly beautiful hanging mountains were actually filmed in Zhangjiajie. They filmed the Zhangjiajie Mountains and then cut off the bottoms to give the illusion that they were hanging in midair. The Avatar Mountains do exist and they are in Zhangjiajie, China!

2017 China Offers Two Choices:

• The Regular China tour: is the same great tour we have been offering. It includes Hong Kong, Shenzhen, China Cultural Village, Guilin, The Li River, The Yangtze, Chongqing, Dazu, Xi’an, Terra-cotta Warriors, Beijing, the Great Wall and so much more. • The Regular Tour with Zhangjiajie option departs five days earlier than the regular tour. It has everything offered in the regular tour, just in a different order, PLUS the 3 night extension to Zhangjiajie.

Goðafoss Falls - Bárðardalur, Iceland

We wanted to put a tour and cruise that would combine the spectacular countries of Iceland and Norway with a fantastic cruise through Norway’s majestic fjords all the way into the Arctic Circle. We found just the right combination!!! This is one of the most staggeringly beautiful trips you can take anywhere on this earth. Cruising through the Fjords of Norway all the way into the Arctic Circle is an experience rarely matched by any other tour.

We finally decided we needed to bring you a trip that was truly a VACATION! The owners of Fun For Less Tours are often out of country over 200 days a year escorting groups or experiencing new areas for you to visit. It sounds like fun, but escorting large groups all over the world is not a vacation – so even they need a vacation. Come join the Tyndall family (owners of Fun For Less Tours) on a cruise that is really not a tour – its a fantastic vacation! We picked the award winning Royal Caribbean’s newest ship, “Harmony of the Seas”. Travel weekly reader’s Choice Awards for 13 years running has voted Royal Caribbean as the BEST CRUISE LINE OVERALL!!! Royal Caribbean has created the most unique and fun ships of all the different cruise lines and the Harmony ship will be the BEST yet! It will be the largest cruise ship ever built! It will set sail May of 2016. It has the most modern and the most fun ever put into one ship. It will even feature full Broadway Shows during your sailing. You will never feel crowded - there are so many open areas, so many places to see and be, including a Central Park with 22,000 live trees & shrubs. There is even a Coney Island inspired Boardwalk with real arcade games and a merry go round. Visit our new website for pictures and videos of the new Harmony ship!

A Partial list of what you will experience in Entertainment:

In the Grand Show Room there will be two full length Musicals: The full Broadway Musical “Greece” and “Columbus, the Musical”, about a distant relative of Christopher Columbus who has his own adventure at sea. The Aqua Theater has two great shows: “The Fine Line” and “Hideaway Heist”. The first is a gravity-defying diving and acrobatic display and the second is a comedic whodunit with highflying performance tricks set against the background of a1950’s holiday resort. It is all helped by projected 3D images, optical illusions and extra dimensions. In Studio B there will be two multimedia ice shows: In the “1887” Show a young woman travels through time and space, discovering the wonders of the universe & in the “iSkate Showcase”, skaters show off their best moves to songs of their choice. The best part, our wonderful Royal Caribbean Representative, will reserve all of our show tickets in advance!

“We Don ’ t Sen d You, We Ta ke You! ”

The ship is the real treat and vacation! It is so great that you would love the cruise even if it never stopped at a port of call! The Harmony Ship will travel from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to Nassau in the Bahamas, then on to St. Thomas and St. Martin before sailing back to Fort Lauderdale.

TRAVELS OF PAUL & THE APOSTLES Greece, Turkey & Isle of Patmos - Ancient Christianity 14 day tour - March 22, 2017 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

Acropolis - Athens, Greece

Turkey and Greece are considered the second Holy Land. Much of the New Testament involves cities in Turkey and Greece along with the travels of the Apostles. Nearly 2/3 of the New Testament, including all of the letters of Paul, most of the book of Acts and the book of Revelation, is set outside of Israel in either Turkey or Greece. We have chosen to visit this part of the world when it is not filled with tourists. It is early spring with average high temperatures that range from low 60’s to high 60’s. It should be great temperatures for touring with a light jacket and with few, if any, crowds to get in the way. Tour description: It is hard to know where to begin, the whole tour is a highlight of highlight tours combined with the study of the travels of Paul, the Apostles and a look at Ancient Christianity. If you rated each day on a tour, most days would be between a 4 & 8. Very few ever reach a 10 or a highlight day. For example: Our Machu Picchu Tour has two highlight days, Machu Picchu and Lake Titicaca. This tour has 5 highlight days!

Our tour includes:

Istanbul: Our favorite city in Europe. You will agree with us after you have experienced it. Ephesus: One of the best ruins in the world, it also involved Paul, John and other Apostles. Ephesus is often so hot, it is impossible to enjoy it. The average high temperatures when we will be there will be in the mid 60’s. Cappadocia: As if plucked from a whimsical fairytale and set down upon the stark Anatolian plains, Cappadocia is a geological oddity of honeycombed hills and towering boulders of otherworldly beauty. Here Christians, fleeing persecution, built underground cities in the honeycombed hills. Our favorite place in Turkey! Meteora: Our favorite in all of Greece and a highlight day you will never forget! The name Meteora is Greek for “Suspended in Air”, which perfectly describes the six remarkable Greek Orthodox monasteries spectacularly perched atop rocky pinnacles. Mars Hill & Acropolis: Our 5th highlight day will include Mars Hill and the Parthenon on top of the Acropolis overlooking Athens, Greece.

“We Don ’ t Sen d You, We Ta ke You! ”

Package Price Includes: • 5 star luxury hotels in Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus and Athens. First Class and Deluxe hotels in Meteora and Thessaloniki. • $470 in flights: • Istanbul to Cappadocia. • Cappadocia to Ephesus. • Ephesus to Thessaloniki. • Private Ferry from Ephesus to the Isle of Patmos. • All land taxes, airline taxes and fees. • All transfers to and from airports and hotels. • All tours, buses, guides and entrance fees. • Special Guest Educator: Dr. S.

ANTARCTICA CRUISE with Chile, Argentina, Uruguay & the Chilean Fjords 25 day cruise/tour - January 29, 2017 with Diane Bills Prince

“This was the Most Spectacular Trip I have taken anywhere in the world” - Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

A few things you should understand:

• Read Michael’s statement above – believe every word of it! Take the best cruise, times it by ten and you may come close to how phenomenal this cruise is! • It really isn’t freezing!!! The climate is dry and sunny with temperatures around 40 degrees 24 hours a day during the Antarctic portion. • Cruising the Antarctic is not done from miles away! You are able to get up close to the most beautiful majestic land on earth. It literally can take your breath away! • Your cruise includes more than the Antarctic. It includes the Falkland Islands, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay with many ports of call. It also includes the Chilean Fjords, Cape Horn, Terra del Fuego, Strait of Magellan, Beagle Channel, Drake Passage, Penguins, seals, whales and so much more! • You can add an optional extension to Iguazu Falls, the BEST falls in the world.

Optional Extension to Iguazu Falls

There is not space to adequately explain the majesty and beauty of Iguazu Falls. Simply put – IT IS THE #1 FALLS IN THE WORLD! When Eleanor Roosevelt first saw the falls, her reaction was “Poor Niagara”. When our passengers travelled to this part of the world they were so impressed with Iguazu Falls, they believed it was the single best touring day anywhere in the world. Then they cruised through the Antarctic changing their minds, stating that Antarctica were the best days! Then sailing through the Chilean Fjords, was icing on the cake. They come away saying “this was the best trip anywhere in the world!” This is exactly what will happen to you if you come join us on our 2017 Antarctic Cruise and Tour!

26 OR 32 day cruise/tour - January 22, 2017 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

Tahiti is almost impossible to visit by cruise anymore. At one time Princess Cruise Lines had a small ship in Tahiti offering 7-night cruises. The ship is no longer available. There are a couple of very, very expensive ships that will do a 7 day Tahiti Island cruise, but prices for inside cabins start at over $5,000. Then it really gets expensive - too expensive for our taste! The truth is, we want something no one ever offers, a cruise that includes all of the important South Pacific Islands: Tonga, Samoa, Fiji and Tahiti. Every year we look at all of the cruises offered in the Pacific, but no one ever offers what we want.

“We Don ’ t Sen d You, We Ta ke You! ”

After looking at hundreds of itineraries over the years, we finally found a cruise we could work with, we just needed to be a little creative to get everything we wanted. The cruise starts in Auckland and travels through the Pacific to Hawaii. We originally offered a cruise/tour that started in Samoa where we spend 2 nights. Then we fly to Fiji for 2 nights and then flew to Tonga for one night before boarding the ship in Tonga. The flights between Samoa, Fiji and Tonga, are small planes, with usually only one flight a day. This limited the number of passengers we could take on this trip. Knowing this would likely happen, we made reservations for a second group that departs 3 days earlier. The second group is able to add 3 additional nights to our cruise/tour for only $200 more. The second group will fly to Fiji spend 2 nights, then fly to Samoa for 2 nights. This 3-day early group will fly to Auckland, New Zealand and spend the night. The next day they will enjoy a half day tour and then board our luxurious ship in Auckland before setting sail to Tonga where they will meet group one. The ship would then visit two Tonga Islands, the Atoll Island of Niue, the Cook Island and then spend 3 days visiting different Tahiti Islands before heading to two Hawaiian Islands. By combining our land tour and a couple of flights, with a good cruise on Holland America, we have it all - Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, Atoll, Cook Island, International Date Line Crossing, 4 days on 3 islands in Tahiti (including Bora Bora) and a lot of “Fun Days at Sea” with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox, before arriving in Hawaii. This is what we have been waiting for!! Why spend $5,000 to just do Tahiti, when for a lot less you can spend 29 days doing all the important islands in the Pacific (including Tahiti) for a lot less!!!

2nd BEST TOUR IN THE WORLD!

THAILAND & ANGKOR WAT w/ Burma 15 day tour - January 6, 2017 with Dr. Michael Wilcox

Bagan Temples of Burma

Here is why we consider this tour the Best Tour in the World!

You will love every day of this tour, PLUS it has the most highlight days of any tour we offer anywhere in the world. If you rated each day on a scale of 1-10 there can be many 5, 6 & 7s but there are very few 10s or 10+ days. For example, you may love every day on a tour of Peru and Machu Picchu, but two of the days will stand above everything else. The day you explored Machu Picchu and the day you visited the Uros Tribe on Lake Titicaca. They are a 10 or what we call “highlight days”. A Machu Picchu Tour has two “highlight days”. Until now China with 5 highlight days held the most. With this special designed tour you end up with 6 fantastic highlight days, the most of any tour or cruise we offer anywhere in the world.

Here is a partial list of what you will see and experience: In Cambodia:

There are two fantastic highlight days in Cambodia, Angkor Wat & Tonli Sap Lake. Angkor Wat has some of the best ruins in the world and are unrivaled both in beauty and state of preservation! Its mightiness and magnificence displays a pomp and luxury surpassing that of a Pharaoh, an impressiveness greater than that of the Pyramids, and artistic distinctiveness as fine as that of the Taj Mahal! Movies like Tomb Raiders have been filmed here. Tonli Sap Lake will amaze you with the villages and houses built on stilts, along with the floating villages and houses that float on the lake.

In Thailand:

Thailand is Siam, home to the films the King & I and Anna & the King. You will have one fantastic highlight day in Chiang Mai, Thailand - One of our passengers this year said, “this has been the best 24 hours in my life” after his day in the Chiang Mai area. The day included holding and feeding baby tigers, petting large tigers, witnessing the best elephant show in the world, and riding elephants over the mountain to visit the Long Neck Tribe. As seen in National Geographic, the women stretch their necks by putting metal rings around them. Your second highlight day in Thailand will be the visit to the beautiful King’s Palace and temples.

In Myanmar (Burma):

There are Two fantastic highlight days in Burma: Bagan ruins and Inle Lake. Bagan is probably one of the most amazing sights we have ever seen. Within a few square miles are the ruins of over 2,500 temples and pagodas. Inle Lake is beautiful and unique. It is filled with floating villages, floating gardens, floating temples and so much more. This is a 10+ in sites to visit in the world. We also tour Rangoon before leaving Burma.

THE BALTICS Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia & Belarus

12 day tour - September 1, 2016 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

Toompea Hill - Tallinn, Estonia

Michael is doing the Trans-Siberian in late August and then in September he is doing the Italy / Greece Tour. When we asked if he wanted to come home between the two, he said no, he would rather visit somewhere he hasn’t been and suggested Poland. We pulled out the map and looked at the wonderful Baltic States that were next to Poland and decided it was time to put a tour throughout this area. Michael loved the idea. Let us be honest about this tour, Michael needed more pins in his world map and SO DO YOU! We have never offered a tour that covered this part of the world, even though Michael has been asking us for years to do so. There is so much rich history in this area, along with wonderful castles, ancient walled cities, old towns and beautiful mountains. Until recently this part of the world was completely under the Communist rule of Russia. You will be amazed at the changes, in fact many of these countries have far exceeded Russia when it comes to progressing and embracing freedoms. We have also included Krakow along with a visit to Auschwitz and Birkenau. The truth is, this may be your only chance to experience these wonderful countries with Michael as your educator. There are so many places we need Michael to be in the world, we do not expect we will return again. So don’t miss out!!!

“We Don ’ t Sen d You, We Ta ke You! ”

This once in a lifetime tour will include the countries of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus. You will enjoy castles, walled cities and ancient towns filled with rich and tragic history. Michael will be able to bring it all to life. Since this may be your only chance to see it all, don’t miss out. Call us now!!!

INDIA

with Kathmandu & Mt. Everest 15 day tour - November 1, 2016 with Diane Bills Prince

Taj Mahal - Agra, India

Why this year is the best year to explore India

The purchase power of the dollar: Not long ago we were getting 42 Rupee’s (India’s currency) for each dollar. We are now getting 65 Rupee’s for each dollar. You do not need to be a math teacher to understand that everything has become less expensive. India is trying to do things that would take the number of Rupee’s per dollar below 50 so the savings will not last. Our 2016 group is using the savings to improve the tour AND upgrade many of our hotels to opulent Maharaja Palaces! The quality of hotels in India can make or break your tour. Most 3 and some 4 star hotels are not up to US standards and are not always safe. Our hotels for the most part beat 5 star US standards. Our hotels are like an oasis with many acres of manicured gardens. Your tour includes real 5 star opulent luxury palaces (built by Maharajas), along with 5 star luxurious hotels! Here is a partial list of hotels we expect to use on your tour: the 5 star JW Marriott Deli, the 5 star Hyatt Regency Kathmandu, the 5 star Jaypee Palace Agra, the 5 star Taj Mahal Palace in Jaipur, the 5 star Ananit Spa & Resorts Pushkar and the Taj Hari Mahal Palace in Jodhpur. As you can see we are staying in a lot of Palaces that very few tours ever get to stay in. National Geographic created a list of ten places you should see before you die. As part of your tour, you will have the rare opportunity to experience the famous Pushkar Festival that was part of that list of 10. The Pushkar Festival is considered the oldest festival in the world. It has been held annually for over 1,000 years. An astonishing 50,000 camels along with cattle and horses are brought to Pushkar each year to barter and sell. It’s a fascinating and spectacular sight that will rank at the top of your list of travel experiences. Less than 1% of the visitors to India get the opportunity to attend a Pushkar Festival. There is only one 5 star and a few 1 to 2 star small hotels at Pushkar, so most of the visitors have to stay in tents during their visit to the festival. With our connections in India, we have been given the 5 star luxury hotel for our group to stay in.

“Tiger’s Nest” Himilayan Buddhist Temple - Bhutan

Optional 4 Day Extension To The Ancient Country of Bhutan

The rare opportunity to visit Bhutan has never been offered before by us and we do not know if we will ever have the opportunity again. Bhutan is a small picturesque country located high in the Himalayas with a border to Tibet. It was almost completely cut off for centuries with no roads in or out. It has tried to let in some aspects of the outside world while fiercely guarding its ancient traditions. They still wear clothing styles that are from the 16th century. Bhutan “Land of the Thunder Dragon”, only began to open up to outsiders in the 1970’s. Bhutan’s ancient Buddhist culture, friendly people and breathtaking scenery make it a natural tourist attraction. Tourism is very restricted, they limit the number of visas each year and all visitors must travel as part of a pre-arranged package or guided tour, it is not open to independent Travelers. Fun For Less Tours Owners have been to Bhutan and have worked hard to obtain a chance for our passengers to visit this wonderful country. We highly recommend you add this optional extension!!!!

Package Price Includes:

• 5 star luxury hotels and Palaces • Four Internal Flights costing $819.

National Geographic listed it as one of the 10 things you should do before you die! There are only 5 days a year you can really experience this festival and there is only one quality hotel – the 5 star Ananita Spa & Resort (which is your hotel). 90% of the tourists that attend the festival have to stay in tents! • All transfers to and from airports and hotels. • All entrance fees, tours, deluxe buses & guides. • Special Guest Educator: Diane Bills Prince. • Fun For Less Tours Staff throughout the tour-“We Don’t Send You, We Take You.” • “Whisper Perfect” headset receivers.

We also visit places others miss or are not allowed to visit. Some even leave off Bethlehem, and most leave off Jordan! One of the sites missed by everyone else: The ongoing excavations of the City of Lehi. A cave was discovered a short distance down from Jerusalem with writings of a Prophet from 600 BC. The Nomad tribes consider the hill above the cave to be a sacred place. As they put it, “Before there was Muhammad there was a great prophet named Lehi and he taught from that hill”. This will be a major highlight of your tour in Israel. The excavations are on an Army Base. Only those excavating and Fun For Less Tours have been given permission to go onto the site.

The Ultimate Holy Land with Egypt & Nile Cruise PLUS

ISTANBUL, EPHESUS & TURKEY 18 day tour - Oct. 28, 2016 with Dr. Michael Wilcox

Our Special Holy Land tour includes all of the important sites in Israel such as Jerusalem, Garden Tomb, Galilee, Bethlehem, Masada, the Dead Sea and more. It also includes Egypt, a Nile Cruise along with Istanbul and Ephesus, Turkey.

Michael has two tours in Israel in October of 2016

• The 17 day October 20 Israel, Egypt & Jordan will experience all of our Israel tour, all of our Egypt tour including the Nile Cruise and PLUS 2 nights in Jordan to visit Petra. • The recently added 18 day October 28 Israel, Egypt with Istanbul & Ephesus in Turkey will experience all of Israel and all of Egypt. The difference - we have replaced the two nights in the country of Jordan (with the ruins of Petra), for 3 nights in Turkey that includes Istanbul (our favorite city in Europe) and the ancient ruins of Ephesus. • Even though Turkey has one extra night and one extra day of touring, the price of the tour that includes Jordan and the cost of the tour that includes Turkey are exactly the same price. The only difference is the cost of two airfares (Istanbul to Ephesus & Ephesus back to Istanbul. The inexpensive flights are $80 each way or a total of $160. So total difference between the tour with Jordan and tour with Turkey is only $160. • The two tours cross over each other. Both groups will have Michael throughout Israel, on the Red Sea and throughout the Nile Cruise (where both groups will sail together on the Nile). Michael is not allowed to teach in Petra or Cairo, so he will not be doing either. He will be with both groups at the Baptismal site at the Jordan River. • Our group airfare is on Turkish Airlines – Voted the best airline in Europe!!!

This tour is exactly the same as the October 20 tour in Israel, Egypt & the Nile Cruise. Simply put, we traded Jordan & the Ruins of Petra for Istanbul along with the apostles in Ephesus Turkey. We love Petra in Jordan, but if given a choice we would pick Istanbul and Ephesus over Petra & Jordan. The only difference is this tour is one day longer and costs $160 more because of the airfare between Istanbul and Ephesus.

FALL FOLIAGE CRUISE

NEW ENGLAND & CANADA 15 day cruise/tour - September 30, 2016 with Jack S. Marshall

The perfect cruise at the right time of year! It was next to impossible to find the fall foliage cruise that included the fantastic cities of Montreal and Quebec Canada. There was only one that came close to delivering what we wanted, but to put it bluntly it was so expensive it was a rip off. So we decided to design our own tour and cruise that would include the best of the best New England and Canada have to offer. This really is going to be the best fall foliage experience ever! We start our tour in New York, spending a Friday and Saturday night. You will even have time to take in two Broadway plays (on your own) while you are there. We will then take a morning flight to Boston, start our touring of Boston before boarding our beautiful Royal Caribbean Cruise ship in the afternoon. We will spend the next 7 nights sailing up the coast of Maine and into Canada. When we get off the ship Boston we will finish our tour of Boston and then early evening we will drive the short distance to Manchester New Hampshire to overnight. New Hampshire is famous for its beautiful fall foliage! The next day we will travel through the middle of New Hampshire all the way to the Canadian Boarder. Then it is on to Canada where you will experience 4 nights and 5 days enjoying Quebec City, the St. Lawrence River and Montreal Canada. What a fantastic opportunity to enjoy New York, Boston, Quebec, Montreal, Fall Foliage, combined with a fun cruise. This cruise/tour really does have it all!!! We have picked the best time of year to see fall foliage. History shows the Fall Foliage in New Hampshire starts in the North around the end of September or first few days of October. It then moves south. We should be hitting the prime time as we are driving through the middle of New Hampshire the 10th of October. No one has a crystal ball to tell the future, but history gives us the best chance to see the staggering fall colors of New Hampshire and throughout Canada!!!

SHAKESPEARE 2016

4-day trip - August 8-11, 2016 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox 4-day trip - August 11-14, 2016 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

6 Fantastic Plays & Musicals

2016 is going to rank as one of the BEST years ever! Everyone, even if you question your love of Shakespeare, will absolutely love this festival. It has 3 Shakespeare plays and 3 other musicals, comedies or Broadway type plays. Michael helps all of us understand each Shakespeare play by explaining the story and the characters before we go to each Shakespeare play. Knowing the story will make Shakespeare more enjoyable for everyone. Each day you will enjoy 2 wonderful plays. Look at the fantastic line up of plays for 2016: Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing (Michael’s favorite Shakespeare’s comedy), Shakespeare’s Henry V (one of Shakespeare’s best history plays), Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar (a great play studied in school) and who wouldn’t love Mary Poppins and The Three Musketeers. The 6th play is always a comedy. In 2016 they will have two comedies; Group 1comedy will be The Coconuts and Group 2- comedy will be Murder for Two.

“We Don ’ t Sen d You, We Ta ke You! ”

Our BEST Seating Ever

Before seating is open to the public to purchase, it is first offered to those that contribute money or time to the Shakespeare Festival. Fun For Less Tours does not fall into this group. After receiving our seat assignments for this year (2015) we expressed our disappointment in the seats that were assigned to us. All of our seats were in the back half of the Orchestra section. We did not have any seats in the front half. We understand why the large donors and those involved in the plays should get first choice. We just wanted to be included in those getting first choice. We told the Festival we needed to be included in the first group for the following reasons: • This is more of a service then a profit center for us. By the time we pay for the hotels, the show tickets, three meals a day, thousands of dollars to rent our meeting space at the Festival, all tipping, money paid to actors for the private seminar, along with the cost of sending many staff members with all of their costs and the costs of Dr. Michael Wilcox – we make very little money. The winner in all of this are our customers AND the Shakespeare Festival. • We asked the Festival to look at the many years of our buying around 2000 show tickets each year, which is 10 times more than other groups have purchased. We felt they needed to consider the large number of tickets we buy each year as our donation to the Shakespeare Festival. • If we could not get better seating we would likely stop coming. Our petition did not fall on deaf ears! This year all of our seats were in the Orchestra, but in the back sections. The Festival has re-evaluated our position for next year. We already have our seats assigned and know exactly what we have to offer and believe us, they are GREAT! We ended up with 3 packages for next year. • Our Gold Package: Four of the plays are in Rows 1, 2, 3 or 4. The other two plays are in great Orchestra seating. NOTE: The Gold Package has already sold out. • Silver Package: Three of the plays are in Rows 1, 2, 3, or 4. The other three plays will be in good Orchestra seating. We still have space in our Silver Package. • Bronze Package: One of the plays will be in Rows 1, 2, 3 or 4. The rest of the seats are not bad, they are basically what we had this year. The Bronze Package will not go on sale until after we sell out our Silver Package. Approximately 40% of our seats are in the Gold Package, which has sold out. We also have about 40% of our seats in the Silver package and 20% of our seats are part of the Bronze Package. Not much difference between the Gold and Silver packages. The Silver Package will also sell out, so don’t wait!!

Silver Package Price

Our Silver Package Price includes everything: hotels, all taxes, breakfasts, lunch and quality dinners, show tickets for 6 plays (3 of your plays in rows 1-4), all tipping, private actors seminar, private meeting with founder of the Shakespeare Festival, Fred Adams, Fun For Less Tours Staff, Shakespeare Festival programs, back stage tours, costumes *Per person cash discount price, based on double occupancy.

Sea lions of the Galapagos

Dr. S. Michael Wilcox has been after us for many years wanting us to put together a tour that would include the Galapagos Islands. The issue always comes down to space and pricing. We have always prepared our tours about 1 year out and for the rest of the world that has been the right timing, but every time we have tried to put a tour to Galapagos, by land or by ship, one year before our desired date there was never room for a group. Like the Trans-Siberian Rail, if you want to get space for a group you need to start working on it two years before your desired date. Your tour to Galapagos will be in December of 2016.

“Anakonda” ship - Amazon River - Quito, Ecuador

One of few places in the world to see the Blue-footed booby

We, along with Michael, have spent many hours trying to figure out the best itinerary, ship or hotels to use. We have come to the following conclusions: • Most of the Galapagos Islands are quite similar. You don’t go to Galapagos to see the islands. You go to Galapagos to see the unique animals, birds, sea life, Darwin and its history. It is not necessary to do 7 to 14 day cruises or tours to experience Galapagos and its wildlife. We decided 5 days of touring several islands would accomplish what we need for our passengers. • Finding space for a good size group even on ships that hold 100 is hard because they will only give you a small number of the less expensive cabins. The cost skyrockets as you go up in cabin categories. • On larger ships it also means when you stop at an island you have 100 passengers going ashore at the same time. • We finally decided to stay on the main island in a deluxe hotel and use it as a base.

This program offers us several advantages:

• Hotel vs ship: Our quality hotel is less expensive than a quality ship. On a ship a few would get the starting prices, but the majority would have to pay for the expensive upgraded cabin categories. • We feel the itinerary we have put together would accomplish all that is most important to see in Galapagos. We can see the wildlife and get a great feel for Galapagos during our visit to 5 of the islands during our 5 days on Galapagos. Additional days and islands is much more expensive and all you do is see the same wildlife all over again. • We plan on having only about 60 passengers. We will then split the 60 into to smaller groups of about 30 passengers each. Each group would go to a different island by boat and then return to the group and base in the evening. Being in smaller groups we hope it will be less crowded compared to the larger ship groups. • Deluxe hotels on Galapagos are limited and not large. We were finally able to get the right hotel to take our whole group (which is not easy) and give us a large enough room at the hotel for Michael to talk to us daily.

2016 GALAPAGOS ISLANDS ECUADOR & THE

HEAD WATERS

OF THE AMAZON

13 day tour - Dec 3, 2016 with Dr. S. Michael Wilcox

limited spa ce

Our Tour Also Includes The Amazon River & the Andes!

This will be one vacation/tour you will never forget. In addition to the Galapagos Islands, we spend 4 nights in the wonderful quaint city of Quito. The Equator is just a few miles from Quito and there is so much to see and do. It is one of the most beautiful areas in the world surrounded by ancient volcanos and the majestic Andes Mountains all with beautiful scenery. Wait till you experience how water flows on different sides of the equator or try to walk without tipping right down the equator line. We absolutely love Quito and all it has to offer. Our nights in Quito will be spent in the JW Marriott luxury hotel. If that wasn’t enough, we will also spend 4 days 3 nights on the majestic Amazon River. Many feel this is the best place to really enjoy the Amazon River. Along with getting accommodations in Galapagos that is always sold out, we had issues trying to arrange our trip to the Amazon. There are only two really great places we feel are the best to take our passengers to. One is a ship called the “Anakonda”, the other is a small deluxe lodge that is located on the Amazon River. Here was the problem. The lodge has only 16 double rooms or can only hold 32 passengers. The “Anakonda” is maxed out around 36 in double rooms. It took us a while, but we finally were able to buy out the whole Anakonda ship. It meant anyone else scheduled had to change to other dates. We also bought out the whole lodge on the Amazon. Their stays are 3 nights twice a week and then they close one day. Not only did they have to cancel other reservations, the day we wanted to start was their normal day off. We had to get them to not only take us, but start on the normal day off they give everyone. This really was a long time jigsaw puzzle to put all this together. Important information: approx. ½ of our passengers will experience the Amazon on a deluxe ship and the other ½ will experience the Amazon from a wonderful lodge. Those that are first to sign up will get first choice on which accommodations they would like to experience. Complete details can be found on our website between the two Amazon itineraries.

Discounted Package Price includes:

• 4 nights 5 days deluxe hotel at the Royal Palm on the Island of Santa Cruz in the Galapagos Islands. • All meals breakfast, lunch & dinner while in Galapagos. • 5 days of touring, snorkeling, boating, buses, entrance fees etc. on Galapagos. • Individual boats to the different islands visited hold approx. 16 per boat – two boats per 30. • An Educational Galapagos expert with each group of approx. 30. • 4 nights 5 star JW Marriott Hotel Quito. • Breakfast daily. • All tours, entrance fees, buses, guides, etc. in Quito area. • 4 days three nights deluxe hotel Napo Wildlife Center in the Amazon – included in price.
