Helping You See the World
We arrange individual and group travel for our clients to world-wide destinations by air, cruise, rail, and motor coach. Our specialty is escorted group tours to Italy, Vatican City, San Marino, Germany, Africa and Israel, led by Louis McCall, the tour director. Tour director led group tours are by arrangement for a minimum of 15 to 20 adults in each group. Participants should be able to walk about 10,000 steps a day.
As an African-American who has traveled widely, as has wife Lenora Fuller-McCall, who is a partner in Far Borders Travel, we are especially interested in reaching out to communities of color to open new vistas of travel. However, we welcome all backgrounds, ethnic groups, and those from diverse national origins to participate in these tours. Especially in Italy, when numbers warrant, we arrange to have Spanish speaking guides for certain events. También, estamos contentos servir la comunidad hispana.
