During the first months of each year, we travel the United States, not for sightseeing, but to showcase and promote our Exploring Europe tours. Over the last three months, Charlotte, Leslie, and I have visited Chicago, Washington DC, Los Angeles, Denver, Atlanta, and Dallas. We proudly partner with The Travel & Adventure Show, joining hundreds of travel experts to offer our tours to tens of thousands of travel consumers. At the Travel & Adventure Shows, we offer unique discounts to those who attend and sign-up for our tours.
We’ve completed our rounds at The Travel & Adventure Shows for this year and have shifted to leading our tours in Europe. So far, we have completed several tours in Ireland, London, Paris, and Italy. We have many more European tours on tap for 2023 and 2024. However, while I am back home, I want to offer a “travel show” promotion on my next Travel Talk Tuesday broadcast.

David and Charlotte are back from hosting their annual Christmas Markets tours. This episode features a virtual visit to Germany, Italy, and France during Christmas. We’ve spent the last two weeks dashing through the snow and experiencing Christmas Markets in historic towns, quaint villages, and alpine locations. If you can’t join one of David’s Christmas Markets Tours, this is the next best thing.
