Budapest, Hungary–If you’ve ever yearned to pamper yourself or your partner with one of those luxurious river cruises and you’ve also had a hankering as a spiritual seeker to experience the divine in unique corners of the world–but couldn’t decide between the two–your dilemma is now solved. You can do both!

In Sept, 2017, you can hop aboard the exclusively chartered MS Emerald Sun to spend 11 days touring eight beautiful and historic cities from Budapest, Hungary, to Prague, in the Czech Republic, in the company of two of the world’s leading spiritual leaders–Marie Diamond, the globally renowned transformational leader and Feng Shui master featured in The Secret; and James Twyman, known worldwide as the Peace Troubadour, spiritual filmmaker and a New York Times bestselling author of The Moses Code.

Each of them will bring their unique gifts to the experience. In addition to onboard workshops and intimate receptions with them, Marie will lead a guided walk through the streets of Prague, the ancient alchemical center of Europe, allowing you to feel the power of the vortexes and spiritual lay lines. James, known for his dynamic peace concerts in war-torn parts of the world, will offer a special concert and meditation.

“The Danube is one of the most romantic rivers in Europe, and together we will visit highly spiritual places along our journey,” says Marie. “Together with James, we will meditate and transform together on one of the most romantic and inspiring rivers of Europe. I am so excited about this trip and I am looking forward to helping you transform your life, spending time with you and visiting these incredibly beautiful cities.”

The tour itself, presented by Spirit at Sea Travel, is filled with enriching, life-changing experiences, exploring:
