AHS is pleased to offer two distinct travel styles for different interests and budgets:

AHS Sojourns offer a high-end travel experience featuring meticulously curated itineraries. These elegant tailor-made journeys offer stays in exceptional hotels, gourmet dining, special access tours and exclusive visits.
AHS Adventures offer a fun and laidback travel experience while upholding AHS’s commitment to quality and depth of exploration. AHS Adventures feature comfortable hotels, authentic dining experiences, and immersive cultural and horticultural activities for those seeking to travel on a budget while still enjoying the richness of each destination.

Both AHS travel styles are carefully curated for travelers who value educational experiences and seek to engage meaningfully with the world around them. Whether you choose the premium experience of AHS Sojourns or the more laid-back charm of AHS Adventures, you’ll find each journey offers a unique opportunity for cultural and horticultural discovery in the delightful company of fellow AHS travelers.

In addition, Master Gardener Extension Volunteers may opt to submit learning experiences on our Sojourns and Adventures travel programs (i.e., expert-guided garden visits and talks by horticulturists) for consideration toward continuing education requirements.
