WHAT OUR TRAVELERS SAY
- Gail B.Smithsonian trips combine the elements of education, experience and just plain fun. If you enjoy art, history, culture and an occasional behind-the-scenes look at another country, these trips are for you. The fact that all expenses, transportation and baggage handling are included just adds to relaxed enjoyment.
- John H.Excellent value, strong intellectual contact which we never could have gotten on our own and choice urban and natural scenery.
- Previous Journeys TravelerThis was the best guided tour I've ever taken! Everything was great! The itinerary, the group leader, the professor, the bus driver, tour participants, food, and hotels! I had a wonderful time. Scandinavia - especially Norway - was an eye-opener! I loved it.
