Our Travel Experts: Archaeology Vacations

I have a rather unique position in the travel business. Most of my colleagues are experts at finding the best hotel with the most incredible view of the ocean. And with more than a decade in the business, I can do the same. But my passion is the past. I hold a Masters in Archaeology, have a life-long interest in history, and take great joy in sending people to places that the normal tourist does not go. Angkor Wat, the Peking Man Site, Oaxaca, I have sent people to them all. Or if you are more interested in modern history, how about a tour of the Beaches of Normandy or the Civil War Battlefields? Give me a call, we will talk about the past, and arrange it.

Having worked with largely religious group travel, I’ve planned a number of trips to Israel, Jordan, Ethiopia, Egypt, Malta, and Greece, and Kenya, designed around the interests of an archaeologist. There is growing interest in traveling with a knowledgeable archaeologist while on a vacation. We can help your non-profit organization fundraise for your archaeological projects, or join individuals with groups already in progress. In this day and age where home-schooling is becoming more prevalent, the parents want their children to get up close and personal with the sites and history they are currently learning, like, “what happened at Pompeii or Herculaneum,” or “where did archaeologists find the anchors of Paul’s shipwreck on Malta,” or where is the alternate location of the real Sinai.” Let me know what you are studying, and I’ll set course for your educational adventure.
