Ancestry Tourism

Have you ever looked into your roots? Ancestry Tourism involves connecting more deeply with a destination through family stories and ancestors.

Kathleen did this on a trip to Ireland after she traced her fathers Irish Catholic side and we had an incredible journey with connection s and memories to last a lifetime.

  1. The work starts before you go, begin with public genealogy records. 
  2. Tap broader online genealogy resources. 
  3. What do you want to accomplish?
  4. Work with a tour operator to further your ancestral journey.
  5. Go and enjoy the lands of your ancestors
