Jane's Journeys

Jane's Journeys Jane's Journeys is a group tour company based in Southern Illinois and Paducah, KY, operating for over 25 years. I believe that this is important to you.

Jane's Journeys offers fully-es**rted group travel, which includes one-day, overnight, overseas tours and cruises. Tour planning for pre-formed groups, such as banks, garden clubs, church and student groups, can also be arranged. I personally design, make all reservations and es**rt my tours. Personal service is very important and is the focal point of Jane's Journeys. I have been in the group tour industry since 1994 and realize the importance of hands-on, one-on-one service. On overnight tours, I list in the itinerary all lodging properties, so that you will know the quality of the hotels you will be staying in. I also include dinners the majority of evenings, rather than leaving this to the customer to find a quality restaurant for this meal. On one-day tours, I also include one meal, except for rare occasions, rather than leaving this to the customer. I believe that taking the worry out of these matters is one of the reasons why you, the customer, choose a tour, rather than traveling on your own. And, you are also guaranteed a delicious meal that has been planned and arranged for you. - Jane Julian

Some roads are more than just a way to get from one place to another.

The Pacific Coast Highway is one of them.

This legendary stretch of California hugs the edge of the Pacific, with mountains on one side and incredible ocean views on the other. Cliffs, crashing waves, hidden coves and those famous California coastal views around one curve after another.

And we're doing something a little different for this one...

We're taking a smaller group and traveling by a smaller bus specifically so we can experience this incredible highway! Instead of taking the faster inland route, we want the journey itself to be part of the experience.

It's definitely one of the things we're most excited about on our California Coast journey, April 11–20, 2027 from San Francisco to San Diego.

Sometimes the best part of a trip isn't just where you're going. It's the road you take to get there.

What a wonderful final day in Niagara Falls!

We started with Niagara Takes Flight, and it was definitely a group favorite! Then we enjoyed some maple sugar and chocolate. You just can’t go wrong with that combination!

We even got to spot some Black Squirrels!!

With a free afternoon, several of us visited the beautiful Butterfly Conservatory. We finished the evening with a fabulous view, wonderful food, and great friends.

The trip isn’t over quite yet. We still have a few fun things planned for tomorrow!

We’re returning to Niagara Falls in 2027, and we’d love for you to join us!

Have you ever been to Derby Dinner Playhouse?

This is one of our favorite day trips, and if you've never been, you're missing a fun way to spend an afternoon!

Located just across the river from Louisville in Clarksville, Indiana, Derby Dinner Playhouse is a true theater-in-the-round experience. You enjoy a great lunch right at your table, then sit back and watch a fantastic live show with the stage right in the middle of the room. And at intermission? Dessert!

Good food, great entertainment, no driving to worry about, and everything taken care of. There's a reason we keep going back!
And we have FOUR shows coming up: 🎭

A Christmas Story – December 16, 2026

The Cottage – January 20, 2027

Little Shop of Horrors – March 11, 2027

9 to 5 – April 7, 2027

Which one would YOU pick? Or just go to all of them!!

There are some drives where you just want to slow down and take it all in.

California’s famous 17-Mile Drive is definitely one of them. Winding along the Monterey Peninsula, the road takes you past rugged Pacific coastline, beautiful beaches, windswept cypress trees and the legendary Pebble Beach. Around just about every curve is another view that makes you want to stop for a picture.

It’s one of those places that really captures what makes the California coast so special. Ocean waves crashing against the rocks, gorgeous homes tucked into the landscape, and views that somehow look even better in person than they do in pictures.

And next spring, we get to experience it!

17-Mile Drive and Pebble Beach are just one part of our California Coast journey, April 11–20, 2027, traveling from San Francisco all the way to San Diego.

Did you know...Niagara Falls is slowly moving!

For thousands of years, the tremendous force of the water has been eroding the rock beneath the Falls, causing the edge to gradually move upstream. In fact, since the Falls were formed after the last Ice Age, they have moved about 7 miles!

Today, erosion happens much more slowly because the flow of water is carefully managed, but Niagara Falls is still changing.
Standing beside it, you really understand why. The sound, the mist, the power of that much water rushing over the edge...pictures just can't capture it.

Niagara Falls isn't just something you see. It's something you experience.

And yes...Jane's Journeys is going back in 2027!

If you’re visiting Niagara Falls, be sure to save a little time for Niagara-on-the-Lake. This charming town sits where the Niagara River meets Lake Ontario, right across the lake from Toronto, and across the Niagara River from Old Fort Niagara. On a clear day, you can even see the Toronto skyline in the distance!

Niagara-on-the-Lake was the first capital of Upper Canada and was rebuilt after the War of 1812. Today, Queen Street is filled with beautiful flowers, historic buildings, locally owned shops, restaurants and plenty of sweet treats. It’s a wonderful place to slow down and enjoy a completely different side of Niagara.

Or, if you’d like, you can join us when we visit Niagara-on-the-Lake next year!

It was a fantastic day spent with fantastic people!

Have you always wanted to visit Niagara Falls? We’re going back next year, and we’d love for you to join us! Learn more and sign up now:

Niagara Falls, here we come! 🇨🇦

Our journey began with a delicious stop at Shapiro’s Delicatessen in Indianapolis, followed by an overnight stay in Columbus. Today, we continued across Ohio and into Pennsylvania, enjoying the scenery and building excitement as we made our way toward Niagara Falls.

Of course, we had to stop at Wegmans in Erie for lunch. It’s always a group favorite! We may have to stop again on the way home to pick up some of those beautiful mums. 🌼

We’re almost there! Follow along for photos from our Niagara Falls adventure!
