"I've taken several press trips with Tucker & Associates, and they've all proved fruitful for me editorially. I especially appreciate the pace and flexibility of the trips. The Tucker team is a kick to spend time with, and because they're so much fun, they tend to gather great groups of journalists. Not only that, but they manage to surround us with people who know the history and characters of the areas we visit. I can't wait to travel with them again."
