DIRECTIONS Tours Founder, Tod DeHart, began working in the hotel hospitality industry in the early 1990's. After graduating with a degree in business and communications from the University of South Alabama in 1994, Tod began his travel career in leading world-wide group tours across the USA and beyond. In a few short years, he would span the country coast-to-coast and to places afar including Africa, Europe, Mexico, Caribbean, South/Central America and Canada. Every mile giving him more experience in group travel and the logistics of making a successful journey for all. In 2001, Tod founded DIRECTIONS Tours with much pride, dedication and passion of travel and those who would entrust him to travel with. Today, 27 years later, there has seen many changes in the travel industry, travelers and technology - which has made the world a more accessible place - but Tod insists that there is nothing more life changing and enhancing than physical travel itself. He always says "anyone can take anyone anywhere" - but when traveling with DIRECTIONS "we make it right - never compromising integrity, quality, experience, value and professionalism."
