Educational Tours to Europe Offered by Lifelong Learning Tours

“Travel is more than the seeing of sights: it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.”
- Miriam Beard
Although Lifelong Learning Tours started with as an educational travel experience for health professionals, it became quickly evident that the general public was hungry for the information offered in our programs. Over time, the composition of the tour groups has evolved to our present registration of at least 50% non-nurse participants. With group participants from all walks of life our educational discussions and travel experiences are more diversified and richer. We hope you join us!
