Archaeological Projects

As a tour company that benefits from the cultural and natural riches of our destinations, we have always had a policy of donating to the scientific projects and museums we visit. This has created a bond with the academic community that has helped us establish an extensive list of contacts in most of the countries we visit. Participants on our trips are constantly amazed at the way that directors of archaeological (and other scientific) projects welcome them.

To remain up to date with the work being done, we recommend that you go to the following links. Many of these archaeological projects are ones participants have the opportunity to visit while on a Far Horizons tour.
