We are bringing our 15 year old grandson on
the June 15th trip. Too bad we aren't on the
same tour dates. Have a safe and wonderful
time and please share with the forum anything
about the trip that you can. Thank you.
Hi DReynolds, we will be on this trip as well. We are traveling with a 15-year-old granddaughter and her cousin (also a girl) who just turned 13. We get to Rome a day early (the 9th) so it would be nice to meet up if you are in early. Sandman
Hello from Florida. We are traveling on the June 10-17 trip with our 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter. We did Castles & Kings 4 years ago and are excited for another Tauck trip!
Hi michdickson, our group of four are all from South Florida. As I mentioned in my previous post, we are traveling with two girl grandkids, 15 and 13. Sound like we have the start of a good group of kids. Not sure how many will be on this tour with still has availability for parties of 2 and 3, Let me know if you are getting to Rome on the 9th, the day before the start. Sandman
Looks like the children have friends already--and hopefully the adults! The forum typically does not hear about Bridges tours insofar as detailed reviews, so please post your experiences if you can. Enjoy!
Thank you sandman. Will be looking forward to what you have to say.
Sounds like you have a good group for the children. So happy for all of you.
Enjoy and safe travels.
Michdickson, look forward to meeting up on the 9th. We are flying to Rome from London, so we all may be picked up by Tauck at the same time. Sounds like your kids are a good match for our 15 and 13-year-old. Sandman
michdickson, we are on British Air # 560 at 12:15 to Rome. Could be on the same flight as you. BTW, has anyone received Tauck backpacks for the kids on the trip? I saw someone on the June 3rd trip say they got them last week.
We begin this trip on June 17. Been trying to go since June 2020. Six of us. 4 adults and granddaughters 18 & 16. They received backpacks 2 days ago. Looks like most on this post are traveling before us. Hope you will share your experiences before we depart.
Hi British. This is what backpack looks like now

Don’t know what it will look like in a year😊😊
Jowell, thank you so much, that is very helpful! I’ll show the photo to my grandchildren, they have to wait an entire year before we take our tour. Everyone is excited and this will be a trial tour before we book the Tauck Bridges AFRICA the follow year.

We are on the June 15 th trip and our grandson got a backpack and water bottle and (I think) a deck of cards
Thanks, Jowell; we are on the trip a week before yours and have received nothing yet. Sandman
