MNA has successfully hosted tours to Europe with Durgan Travel since 2001. In collaboration with

Durgan Travel, one of the largest and well-respected tour companies in New England, MNA members,

their friends and family have experienced a superior value in European travel.

Durgan Travel has over 40 years of experience in providing quality travel products. Their award-

winning tours offer the best product at the best prices with the best service. We offer our tours as

inclusive as possible. We have found that including the meals and daily sightseeing into the tour

package eliminates the concerns people have when traveling in a foreign country. One of the key

benefits of group travel is that an experienced agency plans and prepares for all the travel logistics.

Air travel for all tours is arranged on scheduled-air with the major airlines servicing Europe. The MNA

tours include a comprehensive sightseeing program illustrated in the individual itinerary, which

include major tourist attractions and most entrance fees. Each group has a full time English speaking

tour guide. All transfers and sightseeing tours include a private deluxe motor coach. Most meals are

included on the trip and are indicated on the individual itineraries by breakfast (B), lunch (L) and dinner

(D). When possible, MNA also arranges a motor coach to and from Logan Airport from the MNA

Headquarters in Canton, Massachusetts.

We continue to have a high level of response to our trips and they sell-out quite early. Please be aware

that space is limited per tour and will be filled on a first-come first-serve basis. Single passengers are

encouraged to book as soon as possible, as we only have four spaces per tour for single travelers. The

MNA tours are marketed to MNA members and past travelers, but are open to all individuals. You do

not need to be an MNA member or a nurse to join one of our tours. If you are interested in traveling

with the group, please complete the reservation form. A deposit of $350 in the form of a check or

credit card, made payable to Durgan Travel, will reserve your space on the tour.

I look forward to having you travel with us. If you have any further questions, please email me at
