A New Beginning
Summer is the ultimate fresh start, it’s optimism brought to life. The weather is warmer, days are longer, and buds revive stark branches. Ride past iconic Dutch windmills and take in rows of colorful blossoms on a VBT bicycle tour of the Netherlands. Or savor le printemps in the countryside of Provence, France, on a Country Walkers journey to capture lush meadows bursting with the color.
Our national parks are all stunning natural wonders that change with the seasons, particularly summer. In Yellowstone, that’s when bears, bison, elk, wolves, and other large mammals begin their awakening. Or, travel to the heart of one of the seven natural wonders of the world—the Grand Canyon—to spot young deer and elk fawns and calves as they adapt to their new canyon home.
This fresh new season is the perfect time to reconnect with family and friends, discover new horizons, and share these experiences together.
