Find Romance on Tour
| by Alena Fox | January 29, 2008
How do you find love and rekindle romance? Hre comes five tips to increase the odds of finding romance on tour:
-- When on tour mix and mingle with others; if there is an open table at a meal, don't be shy. Jump in.
-- Ask ahead of time whether the tour operator changes seating on the motor coach daily. This increases your chances of meeting others.
-- Look for tours that include activities of interest to you, such as hiking or history. You're more likely to meet someone with your own interests.
-- Try to find out the ages that the tour operator caters to. Some companies, for instance, specialize in travel for 18 - 35 year olds, others mix age groups.
-- If you're younger don't hesitate to travel with a parent or older relative. Many tours - especially to more exotic locations - have a wide age range.
It's important to travel with the right attitude, states Bob Whitley, USTOA president. "Even if 'Mr. or Ms. Right' may not be on your tour, chances are that you will meet other like-minded folks. And you never know who they know; it just may be Mr. or Ms. Right!" Tours can set the stage for sparking or celebrating romance. Here are some real-life examples of romance at any age on tour.
-- Two twenty-somethings, each traveling with their mother on a tour to Thailand, met on tour and are planning to marry.

-- Two 50- and 60-year-old couples rekindled romance by catching the touring bug for their 25th anniversary celebration.
