Dear Tracks,

Yes, we got our money’s worth. The trip was extremely valuable with a rich itinerary. We are inclined to even do it again! The wagon masters were fabulous!

Highlights of our tour were the historical elements: enactors, diary readings, cultural/heritage centers, Buffalo Bill Museum, Cody, Truman Library, National Heritage Center and Baker City.

Even though it was regularly updated the road log was often difficult to follow. I would like even more historical perspectives, especially more diaries or a reading list.

We chose Tracks because of the catalog and ads. We had also already been to the Copper Canyon.

Yes, we would consider another Tracks tour. Don’t know which one yet.

Dear Tracks,

For sure I got my money’s worth and more. The wagon master, assistant, and their wives always made me feel welcome and gave a sense of security to someone alone. People in my caravan were the greatest, kind and helpful! The tours and meals were more than expected.

I have always been a fan of western history. Walking in the footprints and ruts of their journey—riding the rough wagon out to Chimney Rock and back was like going back in time to share their experience. To me everything was a highlight!

Everything was okay, no need for improvement.

I chose Tracks because of what I heard from friends and reading your magazine.

I am considering Calgary, the 17-day Copper Canyon, and the Viking next.

Dear Tracks,

Because the tour was managed to show us things of historical significance, things we would not have looked for or stopped for if we were on our own, we definitely got our money’s worth. We were also shown things that, though not a part of the Oregon Trail, were of considerable interest and educational value to us.

It is difficult to point out highlights as there were so many, but Daniel Boone's farm, the Arabia Steamship Museum in Kansas City, and the Truman Library were very interesting to us.

As for an improvement, some of the directions in the road log could be improved.

We chose Tracks because of the theme of the tour. Being interested in history, this immediately caught our interest. Although we had no objection to it, the fact that the wagon master called in advance of the tour asking if we had objections to grandchildren being brought along, was but another example of the consideration shown toward participants of the tour.

Yes, we would consider another tour; probably the Old South tour or the Great Lakes tour.
