James Carville and Mary Matalin Return To Make Waves on Crystal Cruises in 2007
Jan 31, 2007
LOS ANGELES, January 31, 2007 - As several politicians have begun to announce their presidential candidacies for 2008, there will be no shortage of debating material for returning Crystal Cruises' lecturers James Carville and Mary Matalin.
The engaging husband and wife, Democrat and Republican political commentators will share their famous political passion aboard Crystal Serenity's 12-day July 26 cruise from Venice to Rome, Italy. The cruise marks the couple's second voyage with Crystal in as many years.
Carville and Matalin's lecture series, "A Walk Through the Races…Where they're Going…What to Make of This Historic Time," is sure to ignite spirited discussions on all sides of the political spectrum. James Carville is a well-known member of Hillary Clinton's inner circle, and Mary Matalin is planning to announce her Republican candidate of choice by the time of this cruise. The dynamic duo will square off with political views - from the Left and the Right - during several "debates."
As co-hosts and guests of television's most popular political talk shows, Democrat James Carville and Republican Mary Matalin have captivated audiences with their wit, passion and contrasting political viewpoints.
"Our guests relish insightful programming on politics, current events and contemporary entertainment," adds Kristin Turner, Crystal Cruises' manager, entertainment. "James and Mary were so enthusiastically received on their first cruise with us. Their return to Crystal this summer is sure to inspire great conversation."
The July 26 cruise aboard the award-winning Crystal Serenity begins in Venice, with an overnight stay aboard ship. From there, the destination rich itinerary features calls in Dubrovnik, Croatia; Taormina and Sorrento, Italy; Cannes (overnight), France; Florence/Livorno and Portofino, Italy, ultimately arriving in Rome on August 7. Fares begin at ,495 per person, double occupancy.
The lecture series is presented by the luxury cruise line's Crystal Visions Enrichment Program, which brings aboard noted lecturers for stimulating discussions on all cruises. Crystal Cruises enjoys an unparalleled reputation for excellence, grounded in 11 consecutive years of "World's Best Large-Ship Cruise Line" awards by the readers of Travel + Leisure and Condé Nast Traveler magazines - the only cruise line, resort or hotel to have achieved such distinction.
