I received an Odysseys Unlimited printed catalog in the mail today. While, I have not ever used this company, I certainly enjoyed going through the catalog and dreaming. It did include other areas besides Europe. So many different places on the list to visit........

We are definitely hoping RSE brings back the printed catalogues. I still pull out our 2020 tour catalogue to peruse and sigh over.
And then there are the tour badges... Sure hope those come back, too.

I got one in the mail from Viking Cruises the other day.
Very drool- worthy!, but I could have a few flights to Europe for the price of one cruise.

Carol,
We have traveled with Odysseys Unlimited six times. They are an excellent tour company. I highly recommend them.

I get tour catalogs from Viking cruises and National Geographic all the time. I’d love it if they stopped mailing them to me. I get as many as 4 a week from Viking and haven’t been on a cruise since 2015.

We have never used Viking, but still get brochures from them.
Having done four river cruises, we always shopped around. There are several excellent ones. Also, tour companies like Odyssey.
Just compare prices for quality of hotels or tours before you book.

We have taken two excellent tours with Odysseys Unlimited and a few river cruises with Viking that were not so good. The catalogs keep coming, and like others here, I love to immerse myself in them!

I get Viking cruise catalogs and I've never used them - or even looking them up online. Maybe because I'm on other travel mailing lists.
I did just start getting catalogs from Road Scholar (which I may have signed up for and then forgot I signed up). :) Those look interesting!

What a waste of paper and not good for the environment to produce paper brochures. I wouldn’t book with a company that sent me more than one copy.

"What a waste of paper and not good for the environment to produce paper brochures"
When I was growing up in small town Canada, the most welcome sights in our house were the seasonal catalogues from Sears and the T. Eaton Company - they brought a whole new world to us. And, in some homes, the old catalogues were recycled as bathroom tissue - imagine that, recycling long before it became de rigueur.
