Distant Horizons was the dream of owner, Janet Moore, who, many years ago, decided she would see if she could combine her unquenchable wanderlust with a real job. From a family of academics, Janet knew the value of education and designed each trip to be led by a hand-picked scholar. From the first Asian departure in 1985, our programs have followed the same model.
Whilst our list of destinations has grown so too has our passion for what we do. Not a day goes by in the Distant Horizons office in Long Beach where we do not learn something new and revealing about our world. Our small team laughs a lot together and with our travelers. And we work hard.
