Moostash Joe Tours Monthly – March

Moostash Joe Tours update regarding the coronavirus:

Moostash Joe Tours is aware of and understands that there may be uncertainty felt among some travelers about the effects of the coronavirus. Our number one priority is the safety, security and well-being of our travelers. At this time, all of our tours are operating as scheduled. We encourage that everyone follow the preventative actions advised by the CDC to mitigate the spread of any virus. We want this milestone year to be a memorable year for you and your loved ones, and we encourage you to continue to discover the wonder of God’s creation through travel!

The smell of spring is in the air! But, doesn’t it seem like the Midwest has a history of teasing us with this beautiful weather an then takes us back to reality when a week of winter comes out of nowhere?

This month’s publication features some great summer tours, complete with new activities and recent favorites. You’ll see a few new destinations and itineraries, such as The Canadian Rockies, Destination Door County, WI and Black Hills and Badlands. For sports fans, we’ve brought back a two-game series between the Cubs & Cardinals at must-see Wrigley Field as well as a Cardinals & Yankees game in our Best of St. Louis tour. AND, not to mention our first ever GOLF TOUR! Join Joey and John Spellerberg as you play four premier western Nebraska golf courses in four days! Sure to be a blast for any golfer.

The unbelievable Norwegian Breakaway is on the front cover and sails the Caribbean in December, which we think is a perfect time to get away from the cold! You’ll also find a Panama Canal Cruise later this year that includes an intimate excursion through the Panama Canal – traveling to the Pacific Ocean and back to the Gulf in the same day!

In his letter, Joey talks a little bit about Moostash Joe Tours’ involvement in American Bus Association as well as being a tourist in your own backyard. And finally, our Discover the Difference page highlights Tour Director Amy Christensen, who does a magnificent job on the road.

March’s Moostash Joe Tours Monthly can also be found on our website under the “TOURS” tab, along with all of our previous monthly publications.

Happy Traveling!
