My favorite experience was going on the “Lula” boat excursion to check lobster traps. Although the traps caught alot of crabs and only one small lobster, it was a great time. The lighthouse was cool to see too.

Overall, the trip was memorable in a positive way. It was interesting on all levels and everyone could find something to appeal to their interests. As a former Social Studies teacher the trip was especially satisfying. Topics and places I had taught in "words" are now reality to me in a special way. Actually visiting places we read about like Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard was exciting. The trip inclusions coordinated well as was very in the brochure. I think everyone in our group enjoyed the variety of activities. You didn't need to enjoy "history" to enjoy this trip. It was memorable for all. Side note not for print: I was a great fan of President Kennedy and to be able to visit St. Mary's church where he and Jackie were married was very special to me.

Hotels in Louisville and Asheville were considerably better than the others. The Biltmore was, by far, my favorite memorable experience. More time should have been provided to properly see everything in the house and on the grounds.

Our extensive trip by air, minibus and water launch was coordinated superbly well by our Explore Leader Julio. Julio was a font of information well beyond providing details of our tour and places visited. His input to our enjoyment of the trip was invaluable. The itinerary itself provided important stages of acclimatisation with high altitudes being reached. Arequipa was a good start to the acclimatising process and the 'White City' had many attractions. Beyond Arequipa Lake Titicaca and our stay on Taquile Island was memorable. Condors soared over the Colca Valley and the Sacred Valley was stunning with Inca ruins. And of course the extraordinary Mach Pichu visit before finishing in Cusco the one time capital of the Inca Empire. An added trip to Pisac in the Sacred Valley was highly enjoyable. In addition to Julio's input supporting local guides and drivers were most professional and considerate too. Hotel accommodation was a high standard with a more simple arrangement on the remote Taquile Island. Highly recommended for those with a mind for adventure.

I enjoyed every aspect of the trip to Scandinavia and Iceland. The highlight for me was the visit to the Nobel Prize Peace Museum in Oslo, Norway. The other museums which we visited, as the archeological and folk museums, were excellent as well. The scenic views in each country, as the fjords in Norway and the geysers and waterfalls in Iceland were beautiful. All of these experiences were memorable.
