This
tour is an invitation to experience an astonishing variety of natural beauty and an opportunity to view an exceptional range
of wildlife in its natural setting. It features visits to three world-class national parks. Each park boasts its own unique
charm and varied natural features; combined, they represent a remarkable experience that is almost impossible to equal.
In Yellowstone National Park, we enjoy three night’s accommodations in the Old Faithful Snowlodge next to the Old Faithful
Inn. This park is home to two thirds of the world’s geysers and half of the world’s geothermal features. It
is also home to an unparalleled range of wildlife. The Grand Tetons are the youngest and steepest range of mountains in
the Rockies, yet they contain some of the oldest rocks on earth. Its jagged peaks have provided a spectacular backdrop for
many movies and commercials. The “Going to the Sun Road” in Glacier National Park is considered to be one of
the most scenic roads in America. We finish our tour with two nights’ of exceptional accommodations in a mountain
resort in Montana and then an exceptional waterfront resort in Idaho. Bring plenty of film!
Price per person is $3,245.00 Twin and $4,245.00 Single.

11 Day Tour – August
5-15, 2012
Highlights: Cape Spear National Historic Site (Easternmost Point in North America)
• Signal Hill National Historic Site • Whale & Puffin Cruise Featuring over a Half a Million Puffins •
Boat Cruise in Gros Morne National Park • Three Nights’ Accommodations in the Sheraton St. Johns • City Tour

The Canadian Provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador possess a wealth of beauty, history and fascinating places. We visit
an area of Newfoundland that was settled by the Vikings almost 500 years before Columbus was born. The beauty of the area
around the picturesque town of Trinity is only minutes from the rocky coastline and the lighthouse at Cape Bonavista, where
John Cabot is believed to have visited in 1497. Gros Morne National Park contains mountain peaks that tower over secluded
beaches, picturesque seascapes, broad meadows, expansive forests and a large population of moose. Our round trip ferry to
Labrador crosses Iceberg Alley. When we step foot on Labrador questions immediately race through our minds as we view vast
expanses of land and witness its unique beauty. As we motor past thousands of square miles of forests, rarely passing towns
with a population over a thousand inhabitants, at times it seems as though we have stepped back in time a half a century.
If you want to be in awe of the natural beauty around us with every mile traveled, don’t miss this tour.
Round trip air transportation is not included from Newark to St. Johns, Newfoundland. We hope to
secure this shortly. It is estimated at about $850.00 per person. We will contact you as soon as we secure the airfare. One
piece of luggage per person (airline fee not included) and one small carry-on is permitted.
Price per person is $2,250.00 Twin and $2,900.00 Single.

this tour is the 250-room Biltmore Mansion, the largest private residence ever built in America. Many may feel that it is
worth the trip to Asheville just to tour this home. However, it is only one of many outstanding highlights that combine to
make this an exceptional tour. Our accommodations for the first two evenings are only 100 yards from The Great Smoky Mountains
National Park and near dozens of stores and restaurants. The Smokies contain some of the highest mountains and most majestic
peaks in the east and some of the oldest land formations on earth. After time to explore the area around and in the Smokies,
we visit the Cherokee Indian Reservation. We conclude our tour with three nights’ superior accommodations in the Inn
on Biltmore Estate, an 8,000 acre estate. Since our accommodations are on the estate, we have unlimited access to visit the
mansion, gardens, shops, winery and more estate attractions. In addition to our audio tour of the mansion, we enjoy a special
riding tour of the estate. An $80.00 meal voucher enables us the freedom to dine in a wide range of restaurants on the estate.
