The estate of
Hergé, Moulinsart, has partnered with tour
operator On the Go to offer under the
banner Destination Tintin a number of Tintin themed
vacations.
The adventure
starts in August with Brussels 3 Day Week-Ends for a
taste of the home of Hergé.
"This
semi-independent three day package allows the flexibility for you
to choose the standard of accommodation you desire and the times
you wish to arrive and depart and to visit many of the sites at a
time that suits you, whilst providing entrance tickets for the
Hergé Museum, the Magritte Museum and the services of a
knowledgeable guide for an enlightening Tintin & Hergé Walking
Tour in Brussels!"
Which means that
except for the guided tour you set your own schedule. Does not
include transportation to and from Brussels as for meals only 2
breakfasts (no lunch or dinner). No price set yet,

days), Land of the Pharaohs (10 days)
and A very Indian Adventure (15 days)...

de Mille Sabords, ship me to Brussels...
Tintin might be
the thread of the week as Milou (or Snowy for the American crowd)
came up in my Crooked Interview with Kristin Hersh a few
days ago...
