we got to experience over many bowls of good humor." EP Seattle, Washington

 TRIP PLANNING FOR INDEPENDENT TRAVEL

1. Are you planning to travel on one of our trips, but want to "add on" additional stops or experiences?

2. Do you like our itineraries and approaches, but are not free during our scheduled trip times?

3. Do you prefer traveling independently?

For all of the above, tell us your specific interests and let us help you develop an itinerary and provide contacts.

In 2008 we assisted numerous travelers to add special destinations, activities and interesting people that they would not have met on their own or on a packaged tour. We charge a modest hourly fee, and do not take commissions from those we recommend.
Tell us your interests and we will work with you to make your independent travel very special!

Themes for 2010-2011 Trips (Please click on this heading for additional information) As in past years, the central focus of our trips is to experience societies and cultures through personal contact with local people.

Our Approach to Travel (Please click on this heading for additional information)Visit places of great cultural meaning and natural beauty where you get to know extraordinary people. Travel with curiosity, humility, and humor.
