The Boss’s Pitch: Why Travel With Us?
“Why do we travel? I think it is to excite our senses in ways we don't experience at home. Whether travelers want to track tigers from the back of an elephant in Nepal, go gorilla trekking in Uganda or drive a reindeer sleigh in Lapland, Travcoa excels at satisfying one's desires to travel to an exotic locale and deliver the adventure of a lifetime,” said Travcoa President Randy Durband. “Travcoa is almost a hand-crafted brand. It is personalized and mindful of all the little things that make a journey special for our traveling guests. Many of our guests want to travel with a small group and make new friends others like to plan every detail to their own specifications with a Custom Journey Planner. Our staff can arrange opportunities travelers never knew existed or set into action the very adventure travelers have been too busy to plan. That might mean sleeping in a felt ger in Mongolia or in a Ritz Carlton in Santiago. It is our goal to enrich our guests through travel and surprise and delight them along the way. I have also enclosed a low res picture of one of our guests in Egypt.
