The Traveller are pleased to announce the launch of our new brochure, which is currently at press and will be available in November. The online version is available on our website and highlights our integration with Steppes Travel. You’ll find exciting new tours alongside perennial favourites, a tantalising selection we’ve included below with our 2012 tours calendar being a good place for further inspiration. It includes four tours that depart in late July for those who wish to escape the Olympics next summer! The Traveller’s core aim remains undiminished, namely the creation of intellectually stimulating archaeological and cultural tours in the company of experts drawn from the British Museum and other notable institutions. We look forward to you travelling with us in 2012. Alex Mudd | |
