Top Ten Reasons to Travel With Tauck Tours

Let me share the top ten reasons to travel with Tauck Tours.

When Carol and I started this business ten years ago, we decided to focus primarily on the luxury baby boomer traveler and represent only companies that can consistently provide our clients with a “wow” experience alongside world-class service.

Today, while we are beginning to see younger travelers interested in our travel services (we’re serving predominantly travelers born in the 1940s,1950s, and 1960s) and have four full-time team members to help manage our clients’ bookings, that original commitment is still in place. We will only represent the best of the best, and if a travel brand can’t meet our standards, we don’t recommend and book it for our clients.

Sadly, few of our competitors hold this high standard, which is one of the primary reasons we have become one of the top booking agents with Virtuoso and the number one booking agent for cruises in Virtuoso for the last two years running.

I tell you all this because if you’re unfamiliar with Tauck Tours, you need to be. They are passionate about the quality of their service, they’ve been in business for 100 years, and our clients always come home happy.

Tauck Tours: A Century of Exceptional Travel Experiences

When it comes to luxury travel, few names resonate as strongly as Tauck. For nearly a century, this family-owned company has been setting the gold standard in guided tours, crafting extraordinary journeys that captivate travelers from around the world.

Founded in 1925 by the visionary Arthur Tauck Sr., the company began as a small motor coach tour operator in New England. From these humble beginnings, Tauck has grown into a global leader in guided travel, offering over 150 meticulously planned journeys across all seven continents. This remarkable evolution is a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation in the travel industry.

Throughout its history, Tauck has remained true to its founding principle of “doing the right thing.” This ethos has not only shaped the company’s business practices but also led to the establishment of the Tauck Family Foundation in 1994, further solidifying its legacy of giving back to communities worldwide.
