I have some interest in this trip. Is this exclusively for Ignatius graduates? If not, is the fare the same for everyone? Any idea of the cost yet?
Lynn McGuire July 18, 2011 at 10:23pm
My husband and I are interested; please contact us when pricing is available.
Is there additional cost for a single room?
