I’d never thought of myself as the “tour type” until I started working at Context Travel. Travel, for me, used to be about seeing new places and finding the best gluten-free restaurants along the way. On my first trip to Italy in 2019, I tried a few tours but found them either underwhelming or, in two cases, missed the tour entirely because I couldn’t locate the meeting point. I'd spend countless hours planning the perfect itinerary but still ended up wandering aimlessly, missing out on the rich history that I loved so much. That all changed during my second trip to Italy this past February. We were in Rome for our annual company retreat, celebrating 20 years of Context tours, and I finally had the chance to experience what our customers have been enjoying for all this time. I took two private tours and two audio tours, and it completely transformed how I want to travel. The overwhelming Vatican museums became more digestible with insights from an art historian, and I explored Rome with our expert guides in my ear, uncovering hidden gems like the Egyptian obelisks scattered throughout the city—something I would have never noticed on my own. Suddenly, every place had a story, and every landmark had a significance I hadn’t grasped before. Reflecting on my previous travel habits, I now realize how much I was missing. Working at Context has not only opened my eyes to a richer, more informed way of exploring the world, but it has also fueled my passion for helping other travelers discover the same.
