Giving Thanks & A Prayer For Peace

For 14 years, we've been creating active trips where every minute is custom crafted and expertly led. We cater to each traveler's interests, age, ability, whims and more - a completely crazy mission, but one that we love. A traveler just back from a multi-generational trip to Africa with us summed it up best: "We really appreciated the expertise that went into choosing the itinerary. And then you make the execution of it seem effortless. We know there is so much that goes into an expedition like that, and it was great to be able to relax in the knowledge that everything was being taken care of."

This time last year, I fell in love with the myriad wonders of Israel, Jordan and Egypt. Praying for peace this Thanksgiving around the globe.

Cheers, Cari & Team Gray & Co.

P.S. We have insider access to a jet-set Paris Olympics package for 5 travelers from July 31 - August 6. Includes top tickets & top suites at the Hôtel de Crillon. Contact us for more information.

JUST BACK FROM:
Morocco

Now is the time to visit Morocco! Veronique was just in Marrakech, a long-time favourite Gray & Co. destination. But this last visit was different. Reports V: "I was there on September 8th when the tragic 6.8 earthquake happened. I was luckily unharmed and got to witness first-hand how the amazing Moroccan people sprang to action. Now, the country is once again ready for the tourists they need so badly - go now!"
