More and more Americans are discovering that the alternatives to packaged vacations -- independent travel, ecotravel, study abroad, volunteering, working and living overseas -- can be much more rewarding and much less costly than a tour.For the past 23 years, Transitions Abroad magazine has helped its independent-minded readers plan their own trips so they can take an active part as guests in the local community. Now Transitions Abroad has put all the essential information gathered over the years into one comprehensive, up-to-date reference book.
The Alternative Travel Directory includes over 2000 country-by-country listings that detail special travel tours, study programs, and volunteer opportunities. It provides the best available information for independent travelers, seniors, families, and students of all ages.
