There was a time in the not too distant past when African Americans literally put their lives 

in danger to travel. A listing of places that offered safe accommodations known as

 The Green Book, became their essential guide.
 

Now equipped with the NEW Green Book, a digital African-American travel directory,

TODAY'S BLACK TRAVELERS (TBT)visit places they have always dreamed of, places
they have never dreamed of, places they love to go andplaces they have never gone.

Sometimes by plane, cruise ship, or train, and often sporting a
shinning, brightly colored classic vintage automobile, our dynamic TBT team ventures on a course that takes them to a slave breeding farm in rural LOUISIANA, to the back roads of CALIFORNIA’S majestic Yosemite National Park riding the trails of the Black military rangers,
known as The Buffalo Soldiers, who patrolled this site in the early
1900s, and to many well-known and unknown places in between, near and far.

You will explore the rich heritage  and sometimes painful stories

deeply embedded in the development of the lives of people

of African decent around the world. . . 

In various destinations along the way, the TBT team is joined by a notable African-American hometown personality or celebrity who shares their unique insight of that city from their perspective.
 

Every episode, will be a learning experience about the lives and theworks of renowned Icons, Artists, Athletes, Scholars, Educators,Soldiers, Entertainers, Scientists, and Politicians, who are “children of the Motherland,” making your journey with TBT a TRIP OF A LIFETIME.

Senior Travel

With  more leisure time and more discretionary funds, TRAVEL is the new  paradigm of freedom for most African-American Baby Boomers. This segment  of the Black travel market often looks to explore their heritage,  history and world connections. Many of these travelers greatly enjoy  experiences that remind them of their youth.

TBT's  journey will allow you to step back in time to get a glimpse of what  life was like for early African-American settlers in historic Black  townships and settlements in the U.S., while exploring the life and  culture of Black cowboys. It will take you to the rain forest in the  Outback of AUSTRALIA to sit in on an Ancient Aboriginal Tribal ceremony, and behind the stage of NEW YORK CITY’S famed  Apollo Theater to learn about the performances of some of the true  giants in genres of music from Blues, Doo-Wop, Rock, and Rap.

Family Travel

TRAVEL  may be considered the apex of achievement for Gen Xers. This is the  generation of African Americans whose parents were the first benefactors  of the hard fought battle for equal rights in this country.  They are  often reminded of those struggles by their elders who came before them

making FAMILY a strong focus in their lives. Family Reunions are often at the core of their recurring travel plans.


Because of their education and exposure, Gen Xers are exploring the world in a way they were never able to before. These travelers often opt to take their children on  experiences that introduce them to a higher economic standard of living  to which they may not be accustomed, i.e., a cruise, a visit to a  foreign country or a popular theme park.

Our  TBT hosts will allow you to see exotic regions such as  the Caribbean  as you never have before; taking you to many places that are considered  "playgrounds for the rich & famous," including an island in THE BAHAMAS where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote his memorable “I have a dream” speech.

Great Getaways

Among Black “Millennials” and those in "Generation Y " TRAVEL is considered somewhat of a “rite of passage” These young travelers share highlights of their journeys to far reaching places around the world through every conceivable social media platform. They are characteristically  curious, independent and often travel in groups. This demographic is  largely responsible for the formation of the growing number African  American affinity travel clubs that stay connected through social media.  

In a totally relatable way, our TBT hosts will  introduce well traveled and the less experienced travelers in our viewing audience, to the best food, the  coolest experiences, the richest history & culture, and the most  fascinating people on the planet, providing them opportunities to further be enriched by culture, informed of heritage, and inspired by adventure.
