🎉 Happy Birthday to our wonderful Tour Director, Michael Phillips! 🎉
Michael’s passion for travel and the people he meets along the way makes every journey special.
When asked what he loves about being a tour director / where his favorite tour destination was, Michael says:
“To answer this question is just about like answering which of your children is your favorite! I love all my tours and all of my travelers and they mean so much to me. The relationships we have built have become pillars for us. When we make new friends and then we travel together over and over, nothing could make me happier. I love sharing this amazing world and how I feel about it with others. We have especially loved sharing Italy and Germany over the years. I don’t think there is a more amazing single city than Florence, a more life-changing single event than the Passion Play, and a more enjoyable season than the Christmas Markets in Bavaria. However, our most recent tour to Iceland and Norway was so special and it was a marvelous combination of the people, the places, and shared spirit of adventure, discovery and caring for one another. If there is any one thing I hope my travelers take away from my tours, it is love. Love of these incredible places, love for our wonderful world and love of each of them as individuals.”
Happy Birthday, Michael! We’re so grateful for the love, enthusiasm, and friendships you bring to every journey. 🥳✈️
