Learning Vacations: Travel For Your Mind

 
Would you like to return home from your next vacation with something more than a collection
of photos and souvenirs?

The possibilities for learning vacations are nearly endless. How about a wine and cooking
tour of Tuscany? You'd visit local markets to buy groceries, learn to prepare gourmet meals,
tour area vineyards, learn to choose the perfect wine to accompany different foods, and meet local restaurateurs.

If you're a U.S. Civil War history buff, you might enjoy a riverboat cruise that lets you tour battlefields
and follow cavalry routes, with lectures by historians along the way.

Perhaps you'll want to immerse yourself in a hobby, be it photography, golf, or quilting. Or
you may want to expand your life experiences, and learn more about yourself in the process,
by helping out on a South Dakota Indian reservation through a volunteer program.

Whatever your personal interests and passions may be, there's a learning vacation to suit
you - and if you need it, your credit union can help you with financing.

As a participant in a learning travel program, you'll tour with a group of people and be accompanied by a guide, or guides. What's more, you'll travel with a small group, at most 25 people. And everyone picked this trip because you share a specific interest.

Learning tours tend to be very ‘hands-on,’ and provide a great opportunity to truly explore
your interest. They prove to be so much more than watching passing scenery through bus windows, with the requisite photo-op stops.

Guided tours also offer advantages over trying to plan a self-guided adventure, which can
take a lot of research and preparation. Expert guides know the best places and the inside information. Plus, you'd find it difficult, perhaps impossible, to arrange certain experiences
on your own, particularly if you have limited time or don't speak the language.
