Green Book

I have often thought about this issue myself. Most of my trips are with Tauck; however, when Tauck had cancelled its trips to Egypt several years ago, I took a tour with one of Tauck's competitors. My daughter chose a Danube cruise for her 40th birthday gift, and, because Tauck's trips were sold out, we went on a competitor. In each case, I received a very nice luggage tag that I use on every one of my Tauck trips -- one on my checked luggage and one on my carry-on. And I'm still using on every trip the "document wallet" that I received from an ocean cruise company in 1996. So -- I travel with Tauck but advertise its competitors. I'd love to have some nice luggage tags from Tauck.

I much prefer the green books to the sheaf of paperwork and green wallets we used to get. The hole enforced card luggage tags are fine. I would not want to leave a Tauck luggage tag on a none Tauck trip. We’ve run into Tauck groups on our other travels and would hate our bags to be pulled off the carousel by mistake for one of their tours.
Talking of freebies. When I read a rival company forum, I get a huge laugh when there are huge amounts of discussion about the free logo gifts that people can chose and send for. The latest is a duffel that appear to rip open as soon as you fill it, Many people have complained about it. Just this morning a guy who’s free bag literally came apart at the airport leaving him with nothing else to put his stuff in.
I would much rather go a Tauck River tour than a rival that did not include so many touring elements but with a fabric wallet I don’t need.

So did we!😀

Ya know, maybe we should suggest to Tauck that we voluntarily return our double-insulated water bottles and Eagle Creek bags which then Tauck could re-issue (for compensation) or sell, and donate the equivalent amount of money to one of their or another charity- like the schools in Tanzania. That would be a much better use than piling up in a cabinet or in the attic.
