About Notable Travels

nt_logo

Are you, like us, among the 76 million Baby Boomers who are, or are about to be, empty nesters? The time has come to experience the adventures of your dreams.

Nothing becomes real until it is experienced.
John Keats

Why take an ordinary vacation when you can have a great adventure? By sharing what we have learned in our travels around the globe, we hope to make travel planning easier for you. Learn to travel independently or to  personalize prepackaged travel to suit your own interests. We look for travel experiences that are not only relaxing and revitalizing but also enlightening.

Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living. -Miriam Beard

Our site is for people who enjoy travel as a way to learn, to grow, to broaden perspectives, and to better understand the people, places, and events of our world. We’ll help you decide when to splurge, where to go for the finest experiences, and how to find the best travel value. We’ll also show you ways to savor some of the best of what the world has to offer at little or no cost. We want to share our favorite adventures—the ones we just had to write about—and hope to help you create your own Notable Travels.

I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost (1874 – 1963), “The Road Not Taken”

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. –Marcel Proust (1871-1922)

It’s not what you look at that matters. It’s what you see.—Henry David Thoreau

Though the travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not. — Emerson
