Land + See Tours

Immersive travel experiences, simplified. Land + See Tours is a group travel company that began with education at it's core. Climb that mountain." Life is short.
(6)

It was founded by high school English teacher, Mandy Picchiottino, in an effort to create a global classroom and foster a love of travel and culture in her students the way someone once did for her. When just a high school senior herself, she was afforded the opportunity to travel internationally with her classmates. She says, "It was the beginning of a beautiful love affair I was destined to have

with travel. I learned to appreciate the differences across language barriers and cultural divides and came home with a new found gratitude for the comforts of home. I even went on to pursue a career in education as a direct result of that experience. I will never be able to repay my teacher for giving me that opportunity. He didn't know it, but by organizing that trip he changed my entire life!"

From there we have grown into what is now Land + See Tours and expanded our focus outward in hopes of unlocking the inner explorer inside learners of all ages. It is our belief that travel changes you to your very core. Aside from the obvious enjoyment that comes from taking a trip, studies have shown that travel has benefits far beyond the trip itself. It has been found to boost creativity, build confidence, and enhance communication skills. Travel also combats fear and makes you more adaptable and open to new experiences. Many people put their dreams of travel on the back burner assuring themselves that one day they'll get around to it, but the truth is, to travel is to live. Jack Kerouac once said, "Because in the end, you won't remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Don't spend the precious time you have in routine monotony when there is a big, beautiful world just waiting to be explored. Jobs will fill your pocket, but adventures will fill your soul. Do more than just exist. Adventure is waiting. The only question is, what are you waiting for?

Heading to Italy during shoulder season and don’t know what to pack?

We’ve got you covered!

Packing light for Italy in the shoulder season (spring or fall) is a great choice, as the weather is usually mild with occasional rain. Here’s a practical list for a carry-on-only trip, focused on versatile clothing that can be layered to adjust to varying temperatures. Clothing Tops: 3–4 v

In Italy, dress respectfully, especially when visiting churches and other religious sites. Italians take pride in dressing well, and modest attire is expected in religious spaces, such as the Vatican, cathedrals, and basilicas. Make sure to cover your shoulders and knees when entering churches, as some places may deny entry if your clothing is too revealing.

The infamous Turkish carpet salesmen: You’re warned not to even step foot inside, they say, lest you be drawn in by smiles, a cup of tea, and an invitation of friendship that lasts a lifetime.

Well, we heard the warnings, but who could resist the lure of magic carpets and spiced apple tea? 🧿🫖

While we managed to escape with our wallets intact, we left with more than we came for—a new friend!

Archer and Roman couldn’t stop begging us all day to go back, just for one more look at that “million-dollar” carpet 😆

Some souvenirs are priceless… and sometimes they’re people.

Meet Avery, one of the newest members of our travel family!

She took a leap of faith and joined us thanks to a recommendation from her veterinarian Facebook group, sight unseen!

Avery’s quirky, fun energy has been such a joy to have with us—she’s always up for trying new foods and diving into new adventures.

Here she is looking seriously cool at an ice bar on our most recent trip to Norway and Sweden ❄️

Here’s to many more trips and laughs together!

It’s been a while since we went to Paris (on purpose, anyway), but on our last trip, this was our view!

Glad the rest of the world is catching on to what we’ve known all along ❤️

A few others have been kind enough to share, but for those of you that didn’t snag a spot for Scotland in time, we are heading to England next September and we still have a few spots left (no waitlist required 😉).

This tour focuses on the quieter spots in England and getting outside the hustle and bustle of London—cottages, castles, and the countryside, oh my! 🇬🇧

If you’ve traveled with Delta in the past 9 months and are missing your miles, this hack is for you!

PSA: It is officially time to start booking your fall and winter travel plans for 2024. Prices are starting to increase and will only climb higher the closer you get to your trip. It’s okay if you didn’t know—because now you do 😉 Do yourself a favor and start planning now so you can get the most bang for your buck, and have the most options available to you.

You can take a second personal item, you say? If anyone asks, you didn’t hear that from me, but here’s everything that goes in mine 😉

Here’s everything that goes in my “personal item” when I’m packing for a big trip. I know it sounds wild, but I’be been team carry-on-only for several years now and have no plans of turning back.

If you haven’t started making your fall travel plans, you are running late my friend! Consider this your gentle kick in the pants to get that travel ball rolling for your fall/winter adventures. The same exact flight, hotels, and excursions you will end up on are easily going to cost you significantly more if you wait to book them come actual fall time. As they say, the early ✈️ gets the 🐛 Let me know if I can help you avoid paying top dollar, or even better, relieve you of the burden of planning it altogether. Happy travels, friends!

2025? What on earth is she doing? There’s a reason, I promise.

**Six month passport validity rule** What is it? Who needs to know about it? How can you use it to avoid travel mishaps in the future?

Travel agents vs. Tour Operators What’s the difference? The answer might surprise you. Check out this brief video where I lay out the difference between these two travel professions so you can determine which one best suits your needs in all your future travels.

If you've got a trip coming up and have questions about travel insurance, here's a little tip: Cut out the middle man. Travel agents make a commission on policies they sell to you. Not only that, the more they upsell you, the more money they make. You may end up with a policy that has a lot of extra fluff and costs more than it needs to. Whenever I travel, I shop for my own personal policies at www.insuremytrip.com--a search engine that lets you compare policies and book trip insurance directly through the insurance company. Here's a brief tutorial on how to walk through finding the right policy for you. Traveling safely starts with traveling smartly. Happy travels, friends!
