Global Tours with Robert Byrd This page provides information about our tour group, which travels all over the world. These tours included trips to every corner of the world.

Dr. Milton Wheeler, a well known history professor at William Carey University, began organizing tours for his students and friends in the late 1960s. After Dr. Wheeler's health made it impossible for him to continue leading these tours, Robert Byrd, one of his former students and a frequent traveler with the group, agreed to continue to schedule trips with Dr. Wheeler's input and guidance. Since
