Tours of Exploration is a fully licensed tour operator/travel agency. We offer several choices to suit a wide range of travel styles. Our FIXED DATE trips allow travellers to join in special interest group nature or cultural tours. Our CUSTOM trips mean that couples and groups can work with us to create a flexible program that suits their own interests and allows them to travel on dates specific to their holiday schedule. For colleges, Universities and Special interest organizations we add meaningful educational support to this customized option. All of our programs are escorted locally.
Our partners and staff have well over 50 years of combined travel experience, which with a worldwide network of reliable overseas and Canadian representatives, enables us to provide carefully planned travel arrangements to any destination in the world.
Our mission is to enrich lives through nature and cultural travel. We believe that a vacation should stimulate and add to your life in ways not available by conventional travel. We look forward to assisting you with your travel plans!
