New for 2013! Cori, Age 15


IRELAND FOREVER... haunted Dublin on a carriage ride, a lucky kiss at the Blarney Castle, pottery and jewelry making in a 1700s-built artisan’s workshop, hands-on cooking beside Irish chefs, Killarney on a jaunting cart ride, and farm-side hawking, legends and lore.


Alexa, Age 13

Catherine Ann, Age 14


MYSTICAL PERU... 400-year-old catacombs stacked with bones, sharp-footed Paso horses, river rafting in the Sacred Valley, a pachamanca dinner cooked over hot stones in the earth, an eye-opening marketplace in Aguas Calientes, a ritual blessing from an authentic shaman, chocolate making in Cusco, mighty fortresses built of stone – and the incredible “lost city” of Machu Picchu.

What I learned on my Tauck Bridges trip…


(Kids tell it like it is on our Comment Cards!) My trip to Alaska inspired me to do things a little differently than


in regular life. It inspired me to think twice before turning down an opportunity to do something. – Sydney, Age 9


When we went to Orvieto, the church there was gorgeous. The whole town was gorgeous, but especially the church. There


was an organ playing a really famous piece; it was stunning and haunting at the same time. I loved Orvieto. – Claire, Age 17


Something that inspired me is Amish country. Just the way they


did simple things at home sparked something inside of me. I liked how they didn’t use electricity and still lived! – Brett, Age 11


Everything was fun and not boring. Usually when you go to a museum the guide explains stuff like who made a painting and


the history of it. But you made it way more interesting. I also liked how there was always dessert! – Carly, Age 12


I had sooooo much fun! I made friends, spent time with family and learned soooo much! – Sarah, Age 13


Amazing, fantastic and marvelous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I ran out of space for more adjectives) – Erin, Age 16

NATIONAL TREASURES: PHILLY TO DC... dinner in a colonial tavern, chatting with a Founding Father, making real the places where the U.S.A. was born and learning what makes this country unique... George Washington’s family home, stories of African Americans who served in the Civil War, Amish teenagers confronted by choice, Gettysburg battlefields and Washington DC, from mall monuments to an Archives treasure hunt and kayaking on the Potomac River.


BON VOYAGE! FRANCE FAMILY RIVER CRUISE... Left Bank Paris, the Louvre by scavenger hunt, seven nights in a floating hotel, peeping gargoyles in Vieux Lyon, a Roman temple in “downtown” Vienne, gypsy music, Camargue cowboys, bicycling along the Rhône and an Avignon palace.
