This Sunday (January 1, 2017) on The Travel Guys... It's a most unique show on a holiday weekend. Mark and Tom are both live in studio, narrating a collection of some of the most interesting stories of 2016. From a Trans Siberian Train ride, to a Westin Hotel in California that adopts dogs; from a travel song sent to us from a friend "down under" to morning Amy Lewis recounting her trip with her husband to Moab. Why would THAT be interesting? Because Amy shared so many great travel tips while talking about her journey.
Mark has the Travel News, including a story about how Alaska Airlines is increasing the benefits in its frequent flyer program and not adopting a few formula the other airlines are embracing; plus we have 2017 predictions for the world of travel and tourism.
