Tauck is an operator of guided tours and cruises; in 1925 it became the first tour operator to be awarded a federal Tour Broker’s License by the U.S. government.〔http://www.agentathome.com/Editorial.aspx?n=811〕 The company, which celebrates its 90th anniversary in 2015, is owned and operated by the Tauck family and is based in Norwalk, CT. Tauck offers more than 100 guided land journeys, small-ship ocean cruises, European river cruises, safaris and family travel experiences in more than 70 countries,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tauck Tours )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=404 Not Found )〕 and it has received numerous accolades.〔http://www.thespectator.com.au/pdfs/130524/240513_13.pdf〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A History of Tauck - River Cruise History - River Voyages )〕
==History==
Tauck was founded in 1925 by Arthur Tauck, Sr., then a young traveling salesman, when he brought six paying guests along on one of his sales trips through New England and southeastern Canada. The all-inclusive, six-day trip covered 1,100 miles and cost each guest $69. The group traveled in the mornings and guests relaxed in the afternoons while Tauck made sales calls to local clients.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tauck Builds Bridges )〕〔http://www4.lehigh.edu/news/newsarticle.aspx?Channel=%2FChannels%2FNews%3A+2010&WorkflowItemID=4fa99dff-3bc6-44ad-b0f8-6c3858858a86〕
At first Tauck planned no additional tours, but when word-of-mouth recommendations from his six passengers resulted in numerous inquiries about additional trips, he reconsidered. Tauck soon launched Tauck Tours and began promoting his guided journeys in earnest.〔
In 1958 Arthur Tauck, Sr. was succeeded by his son, Arthur Tauck, Jr., who expanded the company by adding additional domestic and later international destinations to its portfolio. The younger Tauck is widely regarded as a travel industry innovator, and he is credited with a number of “firsts” including combining motorcoach tours with air travel in the 1950s, offering the first international charter air tour packages in Nova Scotia, bringing many of the first East Coast travelers to the U.S. National Parks of the American West, and introducing “Heli-Hiking” in the Canadian Rockies.〔
