hello we are posh journey

about us - We are Helga and Jack van Horn. We are an exclusive tour company and have been designing and escorting very special, international tours for the past 17 years. We are based in Reno, but our clientele is nationwide, even world-wide. Helga has been in the travel business for 30 years. From 1975 to 1986 she has worked in Colorado as a special coordinator of upscale international tours for individuals and prestigious private groups, including automobile events in Europe. In 1987, after moving to Reno, Helga and Jack established Posh Journeys and in 2002 and 2007  Dental Tourist Vacation, www.dental-tourist-vacations.com  and Medical Tourist Vacations, www.medicaltouristvacations.com

ABOUT OUR TOURS - Our tours are small, 5 to 15 participants, seldom more. We aim to experience a destination rather than see it from a bus window. We avoid the average tourist trap like the plague. Of course, we include the "must see" places, but on our terms. We either spend the night at such a place or get there before or after the onslaught of the tour buses. We make all of our  arrangements for hotels, restaurants and with other suppliers on a one-on-one bases. The hotels and restaurants we select are not necessarily the biggest with the most stars, rather select them for their charm, atmosphere, history, ambience, location and service. We want our clients to see and experience, and return home with memories of special places, special meals and special sights. That's us, that's Posh Journeys!

YOUR TRAVEL INVESTMENT -   Most important of all, your travel investment is never at jeopardy. We make sure that all of our deposits are refundable until sixty days before a tour departs. Should a tour not have the necessary number of participants we can cancel our arrangements without penalty, and your deposit is promptly and fully refunded. However, it is rare that we cancel a tour since, even without the required number of participant, we make all efforts to operate the tour anyway.

PRIVATE TOURS - We can also set up a private tour tailored to your requests, either for as few as two persons, or for a small or large group. For more details click here for!  TOURS BY REQUEST
