Learning through Travel
TraveLearn specializes in learning as well as travel, and their unique program itineraries are designed to inform you about the people and places you will visit. Accordingly, they pay as much attention to the quality of the people who lead their programs as they do to the selection of the first-class accommodations and transportation that will assure you a trouble-free tour.
Unique features of these programs include: Escorts and in-country specialists who share their insights about the contemporary, natural and historical aspects of the destinations visited. The average group size is 14 participants with no more than 20 participants in a group. Local guides are chosen for their knowledge, efficiency, enthusiasm and fluency in English. The itineraries are comfortably paced to allow time to revisit a particular site that has sparked an interest. First class accommodations and local transportation allow travelers to combine a comfortable vacation with learning. Enjoy contact with local people and small group luncheons in the relaxed and hospitable atmosphere of their own homes. Learning tours for 2005 will be to the following destinations: Alaska, Kenya, China, Galapagos Islands, Costa Rica, Ireland, Greece, Turkey, Morocco, Egypt, Italy, Peru, Belize, Antarctica, Australia, Central Europe and Spain.
