Still Traveling: Significant Salem

Tuesday, October 31, 2023 @ 11:00 am12:15 pm

Zoom with us to Salem, MA to spend time with our terrific, professional, local guide, who leads us on a historical journey.

Still Traveling

Would you like to still travel? Now you can without leaving your home – just stay still!

Let us whisk you away for an “armchair adventure” on an interesting, educational, fun & live, guided group tour in a destination beyond your front door …even beyond the grocery store!

Forget the long, masked airplane ride, we take you across the time zones by Zoom where a local professional guide from a distant destination will take us to explore sites or topics. Live Q&A, photos, graphics & video clips (when available) will transport us to the destination!

Your ticket purchase helps support our special guests – professional guides – who were mostly or completely out of work during the pandemic.
