Travel Club 9 will meet 10-11:15 a.m.  Tuesdays, July 15-Aug. 5

Sign up for our new VR Travel Club and you'll become a member of a core group that meets regularly for four weeks exploring the world together. Each week is something different, from adventures in Asia, Europe and popular U.S. destinations, to Cuba and North Africa, South America and other places around the globe.

Each narrated 3-D video is 2 to 8 minutes and we take a couple minutes in between to chat about what we saw and experienced together as we are in the same place virtually at the same time, seeing the same amazing historic sites and natural landscapes. We'll end each week with an awe-inspiring virtual excursion, like the Rise of the Lantern Festival and tour of Buckingham Palace. There are also virtual encounters like "Surrounded by Elephants," "Toucan Encounter," "Wild African Animals" and "Swimming with Whale Sharks" during the last week.

Because these travel adventures are based on actual video, this 3-D experience makes you feel as if you're really there. 

Over the four weeks, you'll get to know your travel companions. Each travel group will come up with its own name. The group decides! Maybe it's Wanderlust, Nomads or TSA-Free. You'll wear a lanyard with your group photo and club name as you create memories that connect you. After Week 1, bring your own snacks for a post-experience Snack & Chat with your new friends.

There are only six spots available in each club. Cost is $30 for the four-week series (non-District residents add $4).
