What our past participants
have to say about TraveLearn's
Small Groups

"I had a wonderful Alaska experience!"
Alaska - Marie Gibson, NJ

"Antarctica was an adventure probably never to be repeated! The mix of people in our group was wonderful. The workshops were great! The Russian staff, service, food was terrific. The zodiac expeditions were outstanding! I loved the whole adventure!"
Antarctica - A. Dukes, MD

"I liked the small groups and also the type of individuals who travel with TraveLearn. “Jeff” was a very knowledgeable guide who was excited about what we were doing and seeing."
Costa Rica - P. McIntosh, NY

"I liked the variety of experiences. I appreciated the visit with the former President of Costa Rica and with the Costa Rican family. There was a great mix of adventure, learning and fun. We weren’t rushed and felt that our questions were answered well. Some tours are like "boot camp" - up at dawn and March. This one was not like that. There were 7 in our group - a good number and we became a family."
Costa Rica - M. Taylor, IL

"I have waited about 40 years to see Egypt. I am so happy I took this trip with TraveLearn. One of the absolute best things was to have a guide as knowledgeable, humorous, educational and "fluent in many cultures". He truly shared his love and enthusiasm for his people, country and their history."
Egypt - C. Feller, NY

"All the reservations and planning was done for me since I really would have had no idea what to see in Egypt during the 2 week vacation. The food was delicious and the whole group of people got on really well. My roommate was terrific. We just clicked and got along great! First class all the way. It would be harder for me to travel in a lesser class next time!"
Egypt - K. Dean, MD

"Our guide Mohammed Shata was amazing! Our small group size was to our advantage. I really felt like we became a small family! Everyday there was something new to love about Egypt and this fabulous trip. TraveLearn should be the standard to which all Egypt vacations/tours have to be held to, you can't beat the price or the treatment anywhere!"
Egypt - A. Bast, WI

"The sites we visited were not only interesting but unique sites for tourists. As usual, TraveLearn manages to give participants some off-the-beaten track experiences that make your programs special. Throughout the trip, Mohammed did everything he could to address the special requests people had and that energy and enthusiasm for his country gave us all a deep appreciation for Egypt."
Egypt - B. Heidron, NY

"Because of the tension generated by the September attack, I initially was annoyed that TraveLearn did not cancel the tour for safety consideration. Today, I am extremely pleased that I decided to go to Egypt. I decided to go with faith, not fear. Safety was not a concern during the entire trip. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone…."
Egypt - C. Robinson, MD

"This was a beautifully balanced program in all aspects: adventure, fun, time to relax, time to learn, time to explore, time to make new friends and meet new people. All these facets seemed to come together with ease - it was a complete - all senses satisfied adventure and I thank you."
Galapagos - Barbara Long, CA

"I've never been on a TraveLearn program before so I don't have much to compare it to. All I know is I had a marvelous time. It was one of the best trips I've ever been on."
Galapagos - Pamela Manos, CA

"The trip was awesome."
Galapagos - Janel Belding, MI

"We enjoyed traveling with the small group of congenial experienced travelers who were not only fun to be with but interested in learning about the wonderful places we visited. The orientation toward learning in this program was a big plus."
Greece - Pat and Evelyn King, SC

"I loved the Irish landscape! I especially liked the way the vacation was organized and structured. It was well planned and very thorough. The pace facilitated group and individual styles. The Bed and Breakfast experience in the Nire Valley at Hanora’s Cottage with the Wall family that included a visit to Melody’s Pub and great Irish music from community participants was a significant highlight. A visit to the Aran Islands gave perspective and balance from a historical and cultural viewpoint."
Ireland - M. Crawford, NY

"I would definitely advise others to take this tour. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and think my money was well spent."
Ireland - William Dewey Hicks, OK

"We liked the knowledge and enthusiasm of our escort. We had very nice traveling companions. Our Italian guide was also top notch. The cities and sites we visited were well chosen."
Italy - G. &E. Gibbs, TX

"Thank you for all the efforts you've made to create such an unforgettable experience for us. The country, our travel-mates, our guide, our van driver, all made this a wonderful safari for us. Please keep us on your mailing list for future travels."
Kenya - Larry and Carol Loose, HI

"(We liked) the opportunities we had to meet and talk with Moroccans. The discussion by Dr. Bentahila and meeting and having lunch with his family… Having tea and almonds with the elderly woman, her daughter and granddaughter at Ait Benhaddeu…Small number of participants…Excellent driver…Variety of places visited…Having some free time to explore on own."
Morocco - E. & M. Tiberg, VA

"I would recommend TraveLearn to anybody who truly wishes to understand and get to know a country. It was an adventure! The excellent escort and in-country guide were open, friendly, personable, humorous, and knowledgeable. The variety of activities - never a boring day. Sunrise in the Sahara...Visiting Old Fez...Length of the trip was perfect."
Morocco - W. Seelbinder, MO

"From beginning to end it was fabulous and I will recommend it highly. Our group was a nice size and very compatible people. All and all we had a "ball". Can't think of anything that could have been better planned or carried out!"
Morocco - A. Cherry, FL

"Excellent attention to detail in planning itinerary and meals. We ate in great restaurants - far above my expectations. TraveLearn did not try to cut any corners! Also limiting the number on tour to 20 was to me one of the most outstanding aspects."
Morocco - K. Grigsby, CA

"The variety of experiences in Peru was very interesting to me. The contrast of the jungle to the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu have you a lot to process and think about. This group was a delight to be with. We enjoyed each other and will keep in touch."
Peru - J. Tucker, PA

"South Africa was so diverse, and that really was exciting to me. The cities were big and interesting, and the bush was intimate and adventurous. Rocktail was to die for, and Zulu Land and Kwabekithunga was an experience I would never trade away for a million dollars. Each place is so unique and different and you think it can't get any better - but then it does!!"
South Africa - Janet Tucker, PA

"Our driver-guides did an excellent job. I feel we saw more in a shorter period of time than most people on safari. We had more flexibility because of the small group and small vehicles. I commend TraveLearn for putting this trip together on such short notice. It was a great trip!"
Tanzania - P. Samson, OH
