At Life Around The Bases, our mission is to enrich the lives of others through creating unique experiences and memories that last a lifetime.
In order to do this, we make the following commitments to you.
- You will wake early and, on many days, watch the sun rise. If your ideal day in Paris involves brunch room service at the Ritz, we are not the company for you.
- You will not travel in a herd. While we may design an experience where you have a guide inside a car, you won’t have one on a tour bus. We create unique, bespoke experiences–not mass produced “excursions.”
- You will walk. A lot. Walking allows you to enjoy things at your pace, to see more/less of one spot if you want, to linger, and to talk to locals.
- You will be challenged to try new things. You’ll eat local food and drink local beverages.
- You will become more educated. We design trips that teach you history, but you’ll also learn about what’s going on today. Our trips are designed to allow you to discover new things not just about the places you visit, but about yourself.
- You’ll become a better version of yourself. Opening your mind to respect and appreciate other cultures and local customs is one of the most powerful things you can do as an individual.
If these things don’t sound like something you’re interested in, there are plenty of other companies available that provide what we do not, and we wish you the best of luck with them.
