A Letter from the Director

Dear Brown alumni and friends,

It looks like spring has finally come to New England! If the season has you thinking about travel, I encourage you to consider one of our upcoming Brown Travelers programs.

There is still space on our Alumni College on the Italian Riviera and in Chianti (August 27 – September 5, 2017). If you book between now and June 6, you can still take advantage of the advertised “early booking discount” and double it to $500 off per person!

Provincial French Countryside (September 1 – 15, 2017) was extremely well-reviewed when we offered it a few years ago. In fact, every passenger rated the trip overall as “Excellent!”  If you act now, you can still register for this outstanding itinerary.

Our Alumni College in the Swiss Alps and on the Italian Lakes (October 6 – 15, 2017) is selling well but does have a couple of rooms left. The “early booking discount” of $250 per person is available until June 13.

For more information about these or any of our trips, please visit our website or contact our office. I hope you will join us soon on a Brown Travelers educational adventure!

Director of the Alumni Travel Program

Special Preview of 2018

Our first trip of 2018 will be the highly anticipated Expedition to Antarctica (January 4 – 17, 2018). The program, which we last offered in 2014, received an overall rating of “Excellent” on every passenger review. If you have ever dreamed of going to this part of the world, see the trip brochure or contact us for more information.
