Broadway shows. Once we have enough names, we will put
together a package that will include a meal, possibly a museum, a
show ticket, and possibly transportation through the LIRR.
HOW TO GET INTO THE TRAVEL BUSINESS: Is travel your passion? Do you spend your spare time traveling to
wonderful places and seeing the world? Why not make money out
of doing what you love? This one-session course will explain how
you can turn your passion into a way to earn some extra cash and
possibly a future career. We will explore the ins and outs of the
travel industry and the pros and cons of a travel career. Upon
successful completion, you will have the opportunity to apprentice
with a tour operator. If traveling is your thing, taking this course
might be one of the best decisions you could ever make.
Cost: $39 (The course will be scheduled at a mutually beneficial
time for student and instructor.)
WHY NOT HAVE A FAMILY REUNION?:
Has it been a while since your extended family has gotten
together? This one-session course will delve into the details of
planning such an event. The sooner you plan, the better the
chances are your reunion will be an unqualified success. Fall is
the perfect time to organize a reunion.
Cost: $39 (The course will be scheduled at a mutually
beneficial time for student and instructor.)
DO YOU HAVE A GROUP THAT WANTS TO GO
SOMEWHERE ON EITHER A ONE-DAY OR MULTI-DAY
TRIP? Just call us and we will help to arrange it, and when
necessary, escort your group personally. Tour operator reserves
the right to substitute any part of an itinerary due to extenuating
circumstances, weather, acts of nature, etc.
