The Grand Canyon


colors made me speechless. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. It felt like you were on top of the world. I thought I wouldn’t like tours, but this was not one of those tours where you HAVE to do everything with the rest of the tour. They give you a decent amount of down time, and I also made a really good friend! Whether we were riding mules, or swimming, or watching fireworks, I cannot decide which I liked best. They were all the ‘top of the top.’ The last hotel we stayed at was amazing, and the view made it seem like you were in a presidential suite in the fanciest hotel in the world. There was never a time where I was bored. I couldn’t, even if I tried, complain about one thing from this trip. It was the time of my life!

Have fun traveling with other families At Tauck Bridges, we believe that a family vacation should be


all about families. That’s why we include fun-filled, hands-on activities that every age and generation can do together... flightseeing, snorkeling, scavenger hunts, canoeing, spy walks, campfire dinners, hiking, cooking, and so much more... along with ample opportunities to interact with the other families on your trip during leisure time and dinners where everyone can become one big happy family. The energy, laughter and good times we enjoy together are downright contagious! In fact, making new friends with your fellow travelers and the people you meet along the way makes your shared experiences even more fun and often results in life-long friendships and memories that continue well after you return home.


Tauck Family Friendly Departures In this brochure, our 2012 Tauck Bridges trips are joined by


“Family Friendly Departures” on three trips that come from our collection of Tauck land tours and river cruises. While these trips are not Tauck Bridges trips, they include places and activities that we know will interest every member of the family. Check out our in-depth Civil War journey crafted with filmmaker Ken Burns – Most Hallowed Ground (page 34); our one-week Italy trip that includes the Tuscan & Umbrian countryside – A Week In... Rome, Umbria & Tuscany (page 47); and our popular France river cruise – French Waterways and Vineyards (page 60).
