I understand
Which Untours have you already done?
Swiss Heartland/Swiss Ticino Sampler
What advice would you give others considering an Untour?
Do it. You get to savor the area and culture instead of being rushed around from here to there. You learn much more about how people live in the area you are going to because you now have to deal with the same day to day issues. Little things that you don't even think about like "What do you do with your garbage?" It's a great way to experience a new culture.
What is your favorite Untour? (so far)
My first one was in September '07 and it was the Sampler I listed above.

Turin 2012

So, I was not meant to be a blogger.

It is 4 years after the trip. But I still have great memories. This was the only city in which we stayed in a hotel because we were only going to be there 2 days. We stayed near the Porta Nuova train station to make getting to Rome next easier.

Turin has a terrible reputation with travelers, so I was very pleasantly surprised when we got there. The bus we took from the airport drove through some neighborhoods that would uphold the…

Italy 2012

We're departing for Italy tomorrow. Though we are not traveling with Untours this time, we are staying in rental apartments. Since our trip will include the Untours cities of Rome, Florence, and Venice, I'm going to try to blog about it as we go.

I'm getting so sleep deprived getting everything ready both at home and at work that I'm just going to crash tomorrow on the plane.

My next update should be from Turin ...

Thanksgiving day weekend

For the last 2 years, we've been avoiding the after Thanksgiving retail madness by leaving the country. My sister-in-law called up and asked, "Do you guys want to go to Iceland for the weekend?" She told us about a package IcelandAir was running to see the Northern Lights. Leave on Friday, return on Monday. It was great. The flight was short compared to going to the rest of Europe. On the return flight, you arrive about when you leave (4 hour flight… Continue

Hi Jay,

I know this is a weird question but do you know Eva Kirchlechner? I went to college with her but we lost touch. I googled her name and incidentally, your name popped up on the same website about some film project. If you know of Eva's whereabouts, would you mind telling her to look me up on Untours Cafe?

I work on the Swiss team and have probably spoken to you and your wife many time during the planning process, hope you had a good time.
