Tauck has announced its 2026 portfolio of North American land tours, and next year’s collection of trips includes three new journeys through the American West along with new itineraries in Mexico, Alaska, and Nova Scotia.
Two of the new Western US tours debut Tauck’s first-ever glamping experiences in the region with stays at Under Canvas West Yellowstone and ULUM Moab, reflecting Tauck’s ongoing commitment to refreshing and enhancing its portfolio.
“We operated our very first tour in North America 100 years ago this summer,” Tauck CEO Jennifer Tombaugh said. “And since that time, we’ve never stopped innovating or improving our itineraries. For 2026, we’re thrilled to raise the bar and feature some truly fun and unique accommodations to help our guests connect more deeply to the places we visit.”
Tauck’s new eight-day Paradise Valley, Yellowstone & the Tetons itinerary spends Nights three and four at Under Canvas West Yellowstone, where guests can enjoy luxury safari-style tents near Yellowstone’s west entrance. Tented accommodations feature private bathrooms, wood stoves and front porches. Guests on Tauck’s new eight-day Wild, Wild West Family Adventure can enjoy a three-night stay at ULUM Moab. Accommodations feature suite-style tents with upscale amenities including king-size beds with Parachute linens and heated mattress pads. Each tent also features a comfortable lounge area with queen-size sofa bed, wood burning stove, evaporative cooler, private deck, and ensuite bathroom with rain shower, sink and toilet.
The third new tour in the region, Western Horizons: Mesa Verde to Moab, along with the Wild, Wild West Family Adventure tour, features an overnight stay at the Far View Lodge located in the heart of Colorado’s Mesa Verde National Park. The Far View Lodge stay continues Tauck’s longstanding tradition of providing guests with inside-the-park accommodations and marks the company’s return to Mesa Verde for the first time in more than a decade. Tauck has been an ardent supporter of Mesa Verde National Park through past employee volunteer initiatives and grants to preserve and protect the park.
In all, Tauck offers 29 North America land tours in 2026, including four Tauck Bridges journeys designed specifically for families. Tauck is also expanding both its Small Group journeys averaging 24 guests, and Even Smaller Group trips averaging just 15 guests per departure. The company expects that more than 50 per cent of its North America land tour bookings for next year will be on either Small Group or Even Smaller Group journeys.
