Tauck and Isobar Bring Sights, Sounds and Social Side of
Travel to Life Online

NORWALK, CT, and BOSTON, MA, March 22, 2011 — The world’s leading guided travel operator, Tauck, and global creative agency Isobar announced today the launch of the new Tauck online experience: www.tauck.com. The new site combines artistry and digital technology to immerse travel consumers in the “Tauck difference,” enabling Tauck consumers to connect, explore and share their experiences online and extend their journey before and after the trip like never before.

Travel is a very personal and exciting experience. Consumers spend months and weeks planning and anticipating their travel adventures, and are eager to share and recount their memories with friends, family and other trip members long after they return home. For the first time, Tauck travelers can share their excitement and experiences pre- and post-trip through a rich interactive journey that captures exquisite photography, elegant and descriptive content, breathtaking video, full-bodied itineraries, and social media. In addition, the site is designed to capture the essence of the Tauck brand and help new visitors understand the wide range of premium travel experiences the company offers.

“For 86 years, Tauck has embodied exceptional quality, value and attention to every last detail,” said Dan Mahar, CEO of Tauck. “Isobar worked closely with our in-house team to bring those qualities to life online in a very real, full-on-sensory way. If one of our journeys could be turned into a website, this is what it would look like.”

Among the site’s features are flexible, easy-to-use search tools that let travelers search for the perfect trip by location, interests and dates. Travel forums bring like-minded travelers together to not only share ideas, experiences, and advice, but connect before and after the trip to share photos and memories that enable lasting relationships.

“Just as with every Tauck land journey or cruise, the site is designed to make travelers feel engaged, inspired and exceptionally well cared for,” said Michael Nicholas, Chief Strategy Officer at Isobar. “Combining both a beautiful, elegant front-end user experience with some powerful back-end digital and social technologies, the online experience has the ability to satisfy and delight the visitor on many different levels.”
