Jeff, the founder of Experience It Tours, closes out “Tourism Month” with a bang. A veteran of many years running private tours in Morocco and beyond, Jeff casts a fresh light on the value of tourism around the world and how to do it well. We think you’ll agree when you hear him that his holistic view of doing tourism right makes a lot of sense. Experience It Tours is the parent company of Beyond Red Square making Jeff something like Andrew’s boss! . . . we think. Regardless, all our listeners will benefit from Jeff’s wonderful stories and strong encouragement to “choose to travel!”
