Travel with the Council
The World Affairs Council travel series was founded on the tradition of intellectual exploration and debate that is at the core of our mission.
 |
The World Affairs Council of Houston has a national and international reputation that opens doors worldwide. Traveling with the Council gives you access to regional leaders and opportunities for behind-the-scenes activities that cannot be matched. |
 |
Our trips are designed to give you the deepest understanding of the region through a combination of historical sites, contemporary meetings, and high-level access. You explore the country and the culture, the places and the people. |
 |
Excellent accommodations
Our trips are planned to give you comfortable lodging and good food at an affordable price. We avoid the distant "tourist hotels" and try to stay close to the action, focusing on hotels that are safe but also allow you to explore independently. |

Outstanding company
Developing new relationships is at the core of each trip. Travelers share ideas and build friendships as they explore destinations. World Affairs Council members have often lived and worked overseas and bring with them a wealth of experience and personal contact.

"I loved traveling to Cambodia with the World Affairs Council. It's a wonderful country with amazing sites of both historical and current interest. But the highlight of the trip was getting to know my fellow travelers. They were knowledgeable, open-minded and approached the trip with a spirit of fun and exploration. I have great memories and new friendships that will now always be a part of my life." John Bryant, Rice University Professor
