Overview:
General Tours World Traveler is one of America’s oldest tour companies. Founded in 1947, the company’s guiding philosophy originated with the Geneva Peace Conference following the Second World War with a mission to build bridges of understanding between the United States and Eastern Europe. In the decades since, as global politics have shifted dramatically, General Tours continues its pioneering effort – affording thousands of Americans the opportunity to travel well in foreign lands.

 This year marks the 60th anniversary of General Tours World Traveler, and the pioneering company’s 2007 Legendary World Journeys catalog is the most comprehensive in the company’s history – with more than 300 escorted, small ship and privately-guided vacations to 80 countries on 5 continents.

 By blending unique vacation experiences and on-tour flexibility with exceptional value, General Tours World Traveler is able to offer extraordinary vacations at great prices. The company and its tours have been cited in The New York Times, Travel + Leisure, Los Angeles Times and Washington Post.  Arthur Frommer’s Budget Travel Magazine has named General Tours “One of America’s Top Travel Packagers” and Mark Orwell, managing editor of Travel + Leisure magazine, called the company “one of the most respected tour operators in the business.”

 General Tours World Traveler is a founding member of the United States Tour Operators Association and a staunch advocate of consumers’ rights in travel. The company has been recognized by other organizations as a leader in tourism. General Tours is a partner in AARP’s Passport program and a preferred travel partner for America’s leading travel agency groups, including AAA Travel and Carlson Wagonlit Travel.

 The company’s management team reflects extraordinary experience and expertise. Founder and Chairman Alex Harris has been internationally recognized as one of the deans of international tourism. Bob Drumm, President of General Tours, is a lifelong travel professional, and Helena Novak, the company’s Senior Vice President for Business Development, brings more than 30 years of tour industry experience to the company.
