**Including All the Expenses**
I perused the brochure once more to make sure I understood the trip details. The tour consisted of several famous cities in mainland Europe. Each city had an appeal of their own.
I let my eyes roam to the bottom line on the brochure. It stated that a fee of two thousand Euros made this an all-expenses-paid trip. I checked the list of expenses. The accommodations for singles reported double occupancy, which meant that they’d put single males or females together with the same sex as roommates.
The tour was for 14 days and 13 nights and seemed adequate for the cities we’d visit. Our mode of transportation was a private coach, which would make the trip more comfortable, as it would be only our group on the bus. The brochure also stated that side trips were available at no extra cost.
Meals were also integrated into the trip price. They offered a continental breakfast, packaged lunch, and a complete dinner. This also included tips.
As I continued to look over the brochure, I spotted a section for miscellaneous expense coverage in the famous red-light district in Amsterdam. They even offered a coupon for personal companion services overnight in Paris. In Rome, a complimentary “full service” massage at “La Dolce Vita” was on offer. The implications intrigued me.
