New! Interpretive Guides

An ExperiencePlus! first

ExperiencePlus! tour leaders are already among the very best in the travel industry.  Now, we’re setting the bar even higher to help make your travel experience more engaging and memorable.

Our most experienced tour leaders have undergone intensive training in the Certified Interpretive Trainer and Certified Interpretive Guides program of the National Association for Interpretation (NAI).  NAI has set the gold standard for cultural, historical and natural history interpretation with their training programs worldwide.  We are now rolling out world-class interpretive training to the rest of our tour leaders, so they will be even better prepared to share their knowledge with you.
