Another top-selling destination is
Hawaii, which clients can explore

You’re celebrating 20
years at TTC this year. Howhave you seen the company’s
USA product evolve?
The past 20 years at The Travel
Corporation Canada and in the travel
industry have gone by very fast and I
am very grateful for the opportunity to
continue to grow and learn every day.
Over the years, the USA experiences from
TTC’s family of brands have evolved and
grown tremendously. In more recent years,
clients are looking for culturally immersive
experiences and are further seeking
opportunities to protect the environments
and communities they are visiting. As
such, we’ve been working closely with our
not-for-profit, the TreadRight Foundation,
to grow our sustainability efforts globally.
Why should Canadian
families choose the United
States as their next family
vacation getaway?
The U.S. offers so many amazing kid-
friendly attractions and educational
activities. When clients travel with
one of TTC’s family of brands, they are
guaranteed carefully crafted travel where
they can truly immerse themselves in
the country’s rich history and cultural
diversity. The U.S. offers incredibly
easy, direct air routes from Canada,
making year-long travel very accessible,
especially to year-long destinations like
California and Florida.
What are some top-selling
itineraries that you would
recommend this year?
For those looking for an in-depth
experience, Trafalgar’s 2019 ‘USA and
Canada’ program has launched two
incredible trips: an eight-day ‘Cape
Cod Delights’ exploring New England’s
coastline, and the nine-day ‘Five Epic
National Parks’ that highlights the natural
splendour of the Old West.
Also, Luxury Gold offers two incredible
itineraries for 2019: the 10-day ‘New
England’s Magnificent Autumn’ that

landscapes, and the eight-day ‘America’s
Captivating Pacific Northwest' featuringDUWAYNE MOORE
