From our family to yours!

It’s time for a Winter Getaway…

Does this cold, long, Nebraska winter got you feeling down? Do you wish you could spend some of it somewhere warm? Maybe with a view of the ocean, the beginning of a little sunburn, and a handsome man by your side (you’d spend Valentine’s Day on the beach). Well, do we have a surprise for you! We figured some of you wanted a chance to getaway this winter, so we added a brand new Texas Winter Getaway tour for 2016! With just a FEW SEATS LEFT, it’s time to dig out that sunscreen from the back of your drawers – but make sure it’s not expired. This year’s tour features some beautiful, warm Texas fun, including the following:

Professional step-on guided tours of Oklahoma City, Dallas, Galveston & San Antonio;

Visits to the NASA Space Center Houston, Galveston Harbor, USS Lexington, San Antonio Riverwalk, Lyndon B Johnson National Historic Park and more!

Don’t forget the delicious local cuisine, unlimited laughs and unique winter memories.

Our bus tours from Nebraska are a great way to escape. And as always, our senior discounts help you get more bang for your buck! Click the picture or any of the links to see some more information about our new tour for 2016, the Texas Winter Getaway!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at Moostash Joe Tours! We hope it was full of good family, good food and some good football. (Go Big Red!) Some of the staff here was busy Thanksgiving morning. We spent our day-off from work out running around in the cold and rain at this year’s Fremont YMCA Turkey Trot. We looked less like turkeys and more like penguins all bundled up. We did return home with some hardware, however, as John Spellerberg finished first overall and Jenna Spellerberg finished first in her division in the 2-mile run, while Joey and Ashley spent some quality husband-wife time.

We certainly have a lot to be thankful for. Just this past Tuesday, November 24^th, we held our Ribbon Cutting Celebration at our new office location! It was a raging success, with many Moostash Joe Tour friends coming to help christen the occasion. Those that attended heard from Fremont’s Mayor, Scott Getzschman, our President, Joey Spellerberg and saw Moostash Joe himself cut the ribbon. Our office neighbors, KHUB 1340 AM and KFMT 105.5 FM Radio were also there to document the special morning. Below is a link to their news article as well as a neat video recap of our ribbon cutting.

40-Year-Old Family Business Celebrates New Location

Wondering if we have any “Black Friday” deals?? We do! Except our deals span the whole year! Consider it a “Black Every-day.” Our bus tours from Nebraska always include the highest quality tour and lowest possible prices.

Ultimate Mystery Christmas – December 10-11

And remember, if you’re worried about the weather, don’t be! No matter the weather, we’ll be ready to go. Our motor coaches cut through ice and snow like butter!

From our family to yours!

Branson, Bus Tours, and Birthdays!

Greetings Explorers! How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before it’s afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flewn!

We’re just days away from the release of our complete 2016 full tour schedule! And we’ll make sure we do all we can to get it in your hands before the Holidays. There are just too many places out there to be kept a secret. From Alaska to Zion, New York to San Diego you can be sure we cover everything in between. Pssst – we’re even taking a bus tour to see the newly crowned World Champs…

If you’re looking for a last-minute getaway this upcoming month, we’re here to help with some outstanding discounted senior bus tours from Nebraska! Our Branson Christmas #4 tour, December 7-10, includes some incredible shows – featuring the hit show “Six”. Six is new to our Branson lineups, but certainly not new to Branson. Featuring six real brothers, you simply won’t believe your ears with their variety of a cappella hits. Also, our Ultimate Mystery Christmas tour, December 10-11, will surely be a special Christmas season surprise. Hint: this years Mystery Christmas tour is going to……….. 🙂 Both tours have seats available but are going fast!

We also have a birthday in the office this week! Our newest member, John Spellerberg (Moostash Joe’s youngest son) turns ??? on Thursday. Call in, wish him a happy birthday, and guess his age for a special prize.

From our family to yours!

Moostash Monster Mash

Happy Halloween Spooky Sightseers! I hope you’re not already sick of pumpkins…candy corn…cheap spider webs…etc. It is, after all, a Nebraskan’s least favorite holiday. Why? Because we don’t necessarily get along with those wearing burnt orange… But if you happen to see the BoogeyMan this Halloween, tell him he’s not as scary as our scary-low bus tours prices!

We’d love to make your Thanksgiving/Christmas season even more special this year. I’m happy to say we have seats available on many of our upcoming bus tours from Nebraska! One of last years’ best sellers, Chicago Yuletide Spectacular, is set to be another unforgettable tour with the fantastic Broadway Show “A Christmas Carol” at the Goodman Theatre. The Windy City during Christmastime is unlike anything you’ve seen before, guaranteed!

We also are very excited about our BRAND NEW Kentucky Christmas tour! If you’ve never been to Louisville, KY before, you’re going to be in for a treat. If there was a statistic that calculated the most fun attractions within a mile radius, they’d take the “crown”. One of our best ever bus tour for seniors. Includes three nights at the beautiful Galt House Hotel and visits to the Kentucky Derby Museum, Muhammad Ali Center, Louisville Stoneware, and Pam Tillis Dinner Show just to name a few!

But hurry, time is running out. We’re expecting these to be filled within the next couple weeks! And, if this weekend you see someone out trick-or-treating dressed up as Moostash Joe, it’s probably him.

From our family to yours!
