Autumn Tours Recap

WOW! What whirlwind fall tour season. The months of September and October are historically our busiest travel months, and 2023 was no different. We had ten groups out leaf-peeping in the New England states, eight groups to Mackinac Island, one to Europe’s Danube River and Oktoberfest, one to ICELAND and many, many more. Check out some comments from the fall tours below!

“Just an awesome trip! Our Tour Director was exceptionally funny and friendly.” (Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta) – Mary, Osceola, IA

“Was a wonderful experience. I felt our tour reflected the closeness and courtesy of all the travelers aboard. A wonderful group of now friends. What a pleasure!” (Mackinac Island) – Carolyn, Fremont, NE

“The Tour Director and Driver helped make this tour such an enjoyable experience!

Statement Regarding the Nebraska vs. Illinois Football Ireland 2021 Tour

Throughout this pandemic, Moostash Joe Tours has always put our travelers first. Your health and safety will continue to be our number one priority. We feel that planning to go to Ireland in August, at this time, is not in the best interest of our travelers’ health and financial risk.

Despite the recent announcement that the football game is still planning to happen in Ireland, we have made the decision to cancel our tour.

We started promoting this tour over 15 months ago, and had a very large group booked to go. We were excited about the opportunity for Nebraska football fans to experience this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see them compete in Ireland.

Not one person that was booked on one of our tours in the past year that had to cancel because of the pandemic has not had the opportunity for a full cash refund including those booked on the Nebraska vs. Illinois Football Ireland 2021 Tour. We are extremely proud of that record. We know that your confidence and trust in us will pay off as you book travel in the future.

We are excited about our other 2021 tours and are currently taking reservations! You can see all of our tours and information on our website, www.mjtours.com.

Happy Thanksgiving!

From all of us here at Moostash Joe Tours, we want to wish you a happy, healthy and safe Thanksgiving! Even though this year’s Thanksgiving may look and feel a little bit different than others, there is still so much to be thankful for. We are so thankful for our amazing team, including our tour directors, drivers and home office staff. And we are so thankful for you, our loyal travelers. We know when it’s time to travel again, we’ll see so many familiar faces and look forward to that day with great anticipation.

We’d also like to share with you a few comments from travelers on our recent Branson Christmas Tours! They were a huge success and we are thrilled how it went, given our current environment. Branson is one of our favorite destinations and is such a special place, especially this time of year!

I was very pleased about the COVID precautions that were in place, especially having hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes available. It was apparent you paid very close attention to detail.” – Joan, Audubon, IA

“Really enjoyed our Tour Director and Driver. I loved everything about this trip. I felt so safe, and I ate too much! All of the shows were fantastic.” – Linda, Fremont, NE

It was a wonderful trip with all the changes and stumbling blocks due to COVID. Very well planned and executed. Congrats on a #1 tour!” – Rita, Omaha, NE

“This was my first trip with you. I loved everything! Our Tour Director and Driver were excellent. Even my shuttle driver from Norfolk to Fremont was wonderful as well.” – Rhonda, Norfolk, NE

It’s also worth noting that we sell GIFT CARDS! We know it can be hard to find the perfect gift for your family and friends, and we’re here to help! The gift of travel is truly the gift that keeps on giving. We can do any amount and our gift cards never expire. Give us a call or send us an email and one of our friendly team members will be happy to help.

Finally, as we enter the holiday season, let us not forget everything we have to be thankful for. This year may not have went as planned, but we are hopeful and very much looking forward to the future! We’ll see you on the road very soon!
