We have over 2,000 worldwide tour host
listings and they participate free of any charge, but they are not
all available for viewing except through our search engine.
We developed "Discover and
Explore" opportunity pages—Themes and Regions—so
that sophisticated travelers could research what they might
enjoy, but hadn't thought to key word search for.
We employ a "Sponsored Listing" model
which means some 25% of those 2,000 tour hosts pay a nominal monthly fee
to be seen in our "Discover and Explore" pages by Theme, Region,
Country and Activity, as well as the ability to list Trips. "Sponsored
Listings" appear before free basic listings in the general search
results and —additionally they enjoy direct click-thrus
to their web sites (free-listings ask that travelers register with us before being sent on to obtain additional information).
The traveler has the opportunity to go on
after initial viewings in Themes and Regions to view all 2,000
listings via our central directory search engine—all free listings are
then visible, or, by going to "Search" on the
menu.

- Register as a Travel Agent
and

It's free!
Once
in Agent Research mode you'll also be able to directly e-mail them or
visit their web site!
Why is it free? It's a support service we provide to our
subscribing-sponsor Tour Hosts.
You can see who remits commissions, uses escrow accounts—their
licensing, registrations and more.
License a Cultural Travels,
privately-labeled Trips Module
that displays hundreds of special interest trips on your web
site—for less than $15/month!
Hit the Trips link on the menu to see the inventory you can select from,
and, with our tech-savvy back-end you'll be able to "pick and choose" by
category or country—even add your own trips!
It's a great way to provide targeted content to your visitors and
to highlight your special add-on value.
Create an alliance with our service
department. We're often called upon—by phone and e-mail—to assist
travelers with questions or those in need of support—yes, even
booking. Let us know of your special interests and we'll work to see you
matched if requested.
