Tours 



During the biennium the Tours Department conducted a 

 wide range of exciting tours, including a voyage to Pata- 

 gonia and Cape Horn, an extraordinary exploration of Chi- 

 na, and a Kenya/Tanzania safari. Many enthusiastic travel- 

 ers participated in the twelve different excursions led by 

 Field Museum curators. Several special tours were offered 

 to Founders' Council members — a birding trip to the east 

 coast of Maine, a tour of Boston that included a visit to the 

 Ramesses Exhibit, and a tour to the Galapagos Islands 

 with an optional extension to Peru. The travel groups en- 

 joyed expanding their cultural expenences, increasing 

 their awareness about natural history topics, and benefit- 

 ing from the expertise of Field Museum specialists.
