One way to reconnect with the past is to take a tour of historic sites, buildings, towns, seasides, trails and natural wonders.  Whether by streetcar, rail, bus, boat or foot, historic tours will enlighten and entertain all ages.  From art and architecture to significant events and figures, history comes alive during self-guided and guided tours.

Discover North America by searching PreservationDirectory.com, a great resource for finding local tours or ones near your vacation destination.

The National Park Service website helps you find parks where you can hike, bike, camp, view wildlife, ski and more.  You can also search by your interest in coral reefs, fossils, caves, glaciers, volcanoes and other exciting topics.  Also, visit 2500 destinations featured in their Heritage Travel Itinerary Series, most of which are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
