Be immersed in your family history with your current family. For example, maybe you have an ancestor who was a cheese maker in Switzerland? We’d take a cheese making class! Or perhaps you come from a long line of farmers in Germany, in which case we’d consider a farm stay. There are so many fun possibilities!

The activity levels and balance of free time and activities are customized to your preference. Once the location is picked, we will plan a preliminary itinerary with activity options for you to customize.

We are here to guide you, whether you have a specific ancestral land in mind or are open to possibilities. We provide 10 hours of family history research to help pinpoint specific ancestors and places to visit. Additional research hours are available for purchase. Depending on the level of specificity we’re able to achieve, we’ll either visit important historical and cultural sites from your heritage or possibly more exact locations like cemeteries or churches (not guaranteed).
