DAY TOURS - BROADWAY SHOWS - DESTINATION TOURS - CASINO I want to talk about what Adventures with Karyn is doing to ensure that your travel and tour planning keeps you safe and healthy. I believe we are all concerned about the spread and containment of COVID-19.

This past week I reached out to tour vendors, box offices, museums, casinos, and my motor coach operator about steps that we can take to keep you safe. I have cancelled or postponed most day trip programs that I am offering for the next 7 weeks (through May 10). If you are signed up for one of these tours, you will be receiving a letter or phone call from me. On Friday, The Boch Theater sent a notification cancelling or postponing all events through March 31, 2020. Many of you are wondering about Riverdance. At this time the April 5th Riverdance performance has NOT been cancelled.

You may trust that I will monitor the ever-changing announcements from local, state, and federal officials. I will continue to communicate and work with my travel and tour partners to ensure safety. If we cannot operate our tours safely, the right decision will be made, and the tour will be cancelled.

I value and appreciate your patience and understanding as I navigate the current travel landscape. Your safety and security remain my highest priority. I am always committed to offering you great tours, and l look forward to traveling with you. Please do not hesitate to call me with your concerns and questions. You can also visit my website www.adventureswithkarynwendell.com for updates regarding Riverdance and other tours scheduled after May 10th.
