Planning Your Genealogy Tour in Europe
Explore Your Ancestral Town in a way that you never imagined was possible. Have the kinds of experiences that make all the documents you’ve collected come to life.
Advance Planning
- Contacts made in advance with pastors, archivists and local historians.
- Personal scouting of your ancestral town when practical, so that we can become familiar with what there is to see and do there.
- Personal arrangement of accommodations.
The Time to Enjoy Your Ancestral Town
- Relaxed schedule.
- No rushed itinerary.
- We adjust to your pace, not the other way around (like on group tours, where you have to keep up with the crowd).
Fantastic Finds
Incredible discoveries are also part of a normal tour. Because you have your guide’s full undivided attention and plenty of help from local experts we can search out things that you’d never have time for on a bus tour, where you’re sharing your time with others.
Your Personal Tour
- You Pick Your Travel Companions (Minimum two persons)
- Tours for couples
- Tours for families up to 10
- No mix and match with strangers
Mix Castles with Ancestral Churches
Hirschhorn
Most of our guests want to mix some tourism in with their research. You can have exactly the kind of tour you want to have, because it’s all arranged especially for you. See a blog about a recent family history tour.
