Journeys of Discovery

Uniquely Inspired Global Adventures for Families and Friends

  • An opportunity to explore culture: art/language/music/food
  • Perhaps an adventure infused with wellness practices
  • Are you interested in traveling with people who tend to be very open-minded, globally aware, and loads of fun? Do you enjoy a family-friendly atmosphere?
  • Do you like to see the sights but also meet people “where they live” therefore getting to know a country at a deeper level?

If so, Journeys of Discovery awaits you. 

We’re drawing on more than two decades of experience working with families who have adopted internationally.

Our sister organization is The Ties Program—Adoptive Family Homeland Journeys. Hundreds of families have traveled with The Ties Program to countries in Asia, Europe, Central America, and South America. Together we have explored Guatemala, savored food in India, been awed by Angkor Wat in  Cambodia, sailed in a sampan in Vietnam, traveled by narrow-gauge railroad to Machu Picchu in Peru, strolled through fascinating markets in South Korea, and visited a family home (by rickshaw) in the Hutongs of China.

But that’s not the only kind of experience that is important. In many ways, knowing how to serve people as they explore the world means understanding the physical and emotional pieces of the journey.

Helping people “travel happy,” make good memories, and form bonds that will last a lifetime. That’s what we’re good at. Who’s ready to go?
