Where-to-Wednesday: Switzerland with Brendan Conroy
"Why do I love Switzerland? Put simply, there’s something about Switzerland that stays with you.
Maybe it’s the breathtaking Alps rising above the valleys, the sparkling lakes, the charming villages, or the sound of a train winding its way through some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. But for me, Switzerland is more than just beautiful—it’s a place that makes me slow down, look around, and appreciate the moment.
I love sharing Switzerland with my travelers because every journey here feels like an adventure. From the incredible mountain views to the unforgettable train rides, the delicious food, and those little moments you never expect, there’s always something that makes you stop and say, “Wow.”
Switzerland holds a special place in my heart, and I’m excited to share a little bit of that love with you. I hope that when you experience it with us, you’ll understand why I keep coming back.

🎈Where-to-Wednesday: New Mexico with Director of Tour Operations - Jaimie Carlson!
Jaimie says “There are some travel experiences that are simply impossible to put into words—and for me, the New Mexico Balloon Fiesta is one of them.
Walking onto the field before sunrise and watching hundreds of colorful balloons come to life is pure magic. Then, as the mass ascension begins and more than 300 balloons lift into the sky, you can’t help but stop, look up, and take it all in. It is breathtaking. ❤️
New Mexico has always held a special place in my heart, and sharing this experience with my travelers means so much to me. It’s not just about seeing beautiful balloons—it’s about being together, experiencing something extraordinary, and creating those memories that stay with you long after the trip is over.”
We can’t wait to share this incredible journey with you. Interested in joining us next year? See brochure here: americanclassictours.com/explore-tours/tour/new-mexico?date=171-27-1005

Ciao, American Classic Travelers! 🇮🇹✨
Our tour to Italy returns today, and what an unforgettable journey it was! From gliding along the dreamy canals of Venice to standing beneath the Colosseum in Ancient Rome, every moment was pure magic.
Highlights included exploring the colorful island streets of Murano and Burano, marveling at Michelangelo’s David in Florence, and whipping up traditional Tuscan dishes paired with local Chianti in the countryside. We also stepped back in time among the awe-inspiring ruins and treasures of Vatican City and Pompeii, and topped it all off by cruising along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast! Take a look at some of the photos our group captured!

🇮🇸 Where-To-Wednesday: Iceland with Brendan Conroy!
Brendan fell in love with Iceland for its incredible sense of purity and adventure, and he wants to share why this remarkable island is such a special place to visit:
"Hello American Classic Travelers! When I think of Iceland, I think of a land that feels almost untouched—where vast landscapes, crisp air, and the power of nature are everywhere you look. From dramatic waterfalls and black-sand beaches to towering glaciers and steaming geothermal springs, Iceland truly lives up to its name as the Land of Fire and Ice.
I also love the connection to Iceland’s Viking past—the stories, folklore, and traditions that seem to echo through the rugged landscape. And then there are the intimate encounters with wildlife, from puffins and seals to the many incredible creatures that call this remote island home.
But more than anything, Iceland has a purity that is hard to find anywhere else. It’s wild, peaceful, and wonderfully remote—a place where you can truly feel connected to the natural world. This is Iceland…and I’d love nothing more than to share it with you!"

Joe loves Ireland more than just about any other destination on Earth, and he wants to share why it’s an absolute must-visit:
"Hello American Classic Travelers! When I think of Ireland, I think of green hills with grazing sheep, dramatic cliffs, craggy shorelines, clear lakes, and misty bogs. It’s a land of charming villages, medieval castles, friendly faces, and lively pubs filled with ancient traditions of music and dance.

This is Ireland…and honestly, so much more. It's a place that stays in your heart long after you leave, and I’d love nothing more than to share it with you. Join us for this unforgettable trip to the Emerald Isle—it’s going to be something truly special!"
