Once thorough research is complete, it is only natural to want to learn even more about your ancestors and the life they led. Documents, names and dates provide the framework, but it is even more thrilling to walk through the towns where they lived and experience the country and culture for yourself. You might consider visiting Germany…

But planning a genealogical trip on your own and from abroad is not easy. Several factors need to be taken into consideration:

Which places and sites are really related to my family's history? Where are they exactly? How do I get there? Can I find distant living relatives? Are they interested in meeting me? Do they speak English? In which house was my forefather born? Who can tell us about local history? How can I enhance my family research? And where? What about accomodation, transportation, museum hours, church opening hours, archive reservations, reading, transcribing, and translating old handwritten German documents, and so on?

Don't let what you have planned with great enthusiasm quickly become discouraging and disappointing. Use your trip to learn as much as possible about your heritage. Your German roots are exciting, and your trip can be wonderful. Let me help you organize a Heritage Tour that you will never forget.

The Heritage Tour we design for you will be one of the most unique experiences in your life.
