I love a great vacation experience. Whether for the culture, recreation, or simple rejuvenation, a vacation is a great way to put my worries and work life behind. And leaving worries behind is exactly what you get if you take a guided tour like those offered by American Experiences Culturally Inspired Group Travel, brought to you by Tour Mappers North America.
Take a Tour
American Experiences is a full- service tour operation that specializes in beer- centric getaways across the United States. The tours are fully planned and escorted so that you, the over- stressed traveler, can sit back, relax, and let someone else take the wheel- literally!
With American Experiences, guests get to visit breweries and sample some of the best beer native to specific parts of the country. And while not trying new brew, guests can immerse themselves in the local culture by visiting top attractions, natural scenic wonders, and other places that set one area of the United States apart from the rest.
Go for the Beer and Sights
American Experiences has several different itineraries, some of which focus on beer and others that concentrate on music, wine, etc. For beer lovers, the Pacific Northwest, Colorado, and New England tours tend to be the most beer- centric and most in- tune with what beer lovers want in a beercation.

American Experiences tours are smaller than those of most other tour companies, allowing for a more customized experience and an opportunity to make new friends as you explore different regions of the United States with others who share similar interests.

Experience America
With American Experiences, curious travelers can immerse themselves in local cuisine and take in the natural scenery. This is what I like best about the American Experiences concept. You not only get to sit back and let someone else do the travel planning and make the arrangements, you also get to inhale the local culture, tasting the best foods and greatest craft beers that define specific parts of the country.
Traditional vacations have their time and place, but American Experiences is different. It’s a small, escorted tour ready to transport you and your travel party to a new and exciting place where you can experience the tastes and atmosphere that help make the United States such a diverse and magical wonderland. It’s a great way to experience America, and that is why Tour Mappers calls it American Experiences. Check out the online web site, find the tour that’s best for you, and experience America like never before.

I wish I lived near by. This looks like such a good time.
Just need a littleeee more $ to travel out to those fun cities & check this out! Love keeping it small and local.
Yes, that is what sets American Experiences apart from other tour companies. The smaller, more intimate groups are better overall for countless reasons. Plus. American Experiences takes you places that other, larger tour groups normally don’t go, often into smaller towns, loaded with local charm.
I had no idea things like these existed!!! That’s something I am going to add to a to-do list.
American Experiences and tour operators like them are less well known, but it’s a concept I believe is catching on. It’s much more memorable and enjoyable when you take a vacation tour with a smaller group of people.
I’m not an avid drinker but love the ambience! I should consider visiting the US with a group now! Thanks for letting me know about American Experiences!
I have so many friends who would love this type of beer experience. I would love to do one around Washington and Oregon.
I recommend it. With the smaller tour group size, you get to know others and sometimes create lasting friendships.
