People are traveling more than ever. The economy is good, people seem to have more leisure time, and they want to go to new places and experience different foods and culture. The Traveling Professor small group tours go all over Europe, to Canada, and South America. People generally travel to places they have heard of before, but in today's blog post, The Traveling Professor has some suggestions of places to travel in 2020. Take a look, some of them are quite interesting!

We recently got back from a small group tour to Peru. The Traveling Professor has been bringing his small group tours to Peru for almost 8 years now and this was our 20th trip.

In this blog post, The Traveling Professor will tell you about our accommodations, the outstanding food, and what was on our very exciting itinerary. Check out the blog post for our small group tour to Peru trip review.
People have a lot of misconceptions about Peru. I'm not sure exactly what they are but when they get to Peru, especially a place like the Peruvian jungle, they always say, "Wow! I never thought it would be like this". We've been running tours to Peru for about 5 years now, so, in this blog post The Traveling Professor will tell you a little bit more what it is like to visit the jungle in Peru.
Yogi Berra famously said, "Nobody Goes There Anymore, It's Too Crowded". We can apply the same statement to travel. There are some places we regularly travel to, but NEVER go during certain seasons. In today's blog post, The Traveling Professor explains the places to stay away from at certain times and better alternatives for travelers who do want to go away and actually enjoy their vacation without the pressing crowds.
On our small group tours to Paris, Italy, Norway, Austria and Germany, and Peru, part of the travel experience is the food. It is ALL good. But what's the best? Every country has wonderful food. But which country has the best food? Everyone is going to have their own opinions but in this blog post, The Traveling Professor gives his opinion on which country has the best food.
The Traveling Professor just completed three days in New York at the New York Times Travel Show. It was great to meet all of our travelers who came out to see us. It was just as great to make new friends too. We got to talk and meet face-to-face on all aspect of travel. We learned what our travelers want in 2016. In this blog post we will share that with you as well what we learned about upcoming trends in travel.
We really do something special here at The Traveling Professor.
It is hard to believe that I have been taking people on small group tours since 2009. We started running strictly "budget" trips but as time went by, we kept upgrading and upgrading to the point where we use nothing less than quality 3-star deluxe hotels on all our regular tours, we have professional guides, limo pickup at the airport regardless of time of arrival, VIP no-wait-in-line admission. Our small group size lets us into places where no other tour goes and no guide book will tell you about. For instance, the ancient ruins you can get up close to an personal with in Rome, the restaurants only known by locals, the artisans in Florence that only WE get into to see, in Iceland we go off the beaten path for lunch at a dairy farm, and in Peru we hike the REAL Inca trail, not the one you always see on TV.
